    Worked in banking (investments) all my life until 2006. Decided to take a year or two off to travel on our Harley. That two years has turned into almost 6! But going to take a job for 7 months in the mountains as a campground host! So excited!

    I'm a writer. Two books out for purchase and hopefully two more out by the end of the year. When I'm not writing I'm a mother two, soon-to-be, two little girls.

    I do see lots of desk jobs! I'm also at a desk 8-5 M-F doing administrative work for a university. Used to work retail, and never thought I'd miss it, but I miss moving around. I get an hour lunch and since I do have the privacy of my own office so I'm actually going to try to a few things in here. Isometrics, yoga, and brought in some 5lbs weights and a tension band. Also have a pair retired tennis shoes for walks around campus. I'm still pretty new to MFP (and probably on it more that I should be at work) but it is nice to have the support at my finger tips when I get the e-mail telling me about the doughnuts in the conference room!

    I must admit my alterior motive for the post was to see who says they love their job and who hates it. I may need some ideas later on :-)

    Clinical Research Coordinator. Desk job for sure. Sometimes I see study patients. But sitting on my butt at work has not hindered my progress and success one bit!
