    I , like so many, also have a mostly sedentary job...

    I am a Department of the Air Force civilian...specifically an AETC Training Manager. I manage the entire training process for a given set of career fields. I much prefer my previous position where I was the Deputy Director for F-22 Technical Training. All of this is my way of continuing to serve after many many years in uniform of two different branches.

    I feel like I should add that I am a JUVENILE probation officer. I specialize in juveniles with drug abuse issues. Imagine having 20 teenagers. Mother of God.

    I'm a Staff Accountant by day and Zumba Instructor by night! ;-) Definitely helps keep me in shape since I sit all day.

    I'm in sales. I spend most of the day at my desk but when I have a conference call or working on a deal I pace around my office or stand up. My job is also terribly boring sometimes and not stressful. I wish it was harder actually to prevent the boredom...

    I also get up once an hour to walk to the other end of the office for water, coffee, tea, or walk the stairs in the building.

    I work for a manufacturer of high-quality sexual health devices....so I sell sex toys for a living. (I manage their small webstore and handle customer questions.) It's not as salacious as it sounds, and it's fairly sedentary so that is not ideal. But the hours are flexible, so I can usually get out for a workout at lunchtime.

    After three years here, I'm also impossible to shock, really.

    If you've done it longer than a year, it must be a calling for you! God bless! :flowerforyou:

    Not quite a year. I just graduated college in July. It can be terribly frustrating.

    Server in a hotel. Living the dream.
    Lots of running around. I started working breakfast and wedding parties only! I found myself snacking too much when I worked bar shifts. I have so much more control and movement over the other end.

    Payroll/Billing Support for a Major Nuclear Services Contractor - I basically have a sedentary desk job doing data entry (90% of my job) - the other 10% of it is explaining the payroll system and how to's to 500+ field guys when they need help - imagine explaining a VERY basic payroll self-service system to a bunch of guys who work on, in and around Nuclear Reactor's for a living - it's truly scary how many of them can do that BUT not operate a basic windows based payroll system...go fig.

    My hubby though works for a major pet retailer and therefore my workout schedule is based 100% on his work schedule...SUCKS but when your Mommy who works 40+ hours a week w/a hubby in retail you do what you gotta do!
