    I'm a nurse manager for an ICU, cath lab, IR suite, and Nuclear medicine. Some days I wonder why I am still doing this.

    I'm an online English tutor (reading/lit, writing, grammar, resume help) for grade school through grad school + adult learners who need job placement help. I enjoy it and it's so great when I can actually see something clicking with one of my students. Yesterday a student told me "I wish my tutors in every subject were as good as you." Awwww!

    I also do daycare for my nephs and sell my handmade soaps and other bath and body goodies and make custom quilts to order.

    Self employed. Own a NAPA Auto Parts store. Today I loved it. Tomorrow I will probably hate it and spend my afternoon wondering why I decided it was a good idea to buy a business.

    My grandparents owned NAPA store(s) for awhile! And then my mom had a Coast to Coast hardware store.

    I'm a waitress at Cracker Barrel and Friendly's. I would have to say that since I have been a waitress for 25 years I must like it or be gluten for punishment. It could be both.

    Registered nurse, and NO because it is no longer about the patient.

    I hear you. I'm a Personal Support Worker/ Nurses Aide and it's all about ministry guidelines now. D:

    Doing a Ph.D in an awesome field that I really like. I love my job, but it has its ups and downs just like any other job. I love being surrounded by scientists and intellectuals though. It's a lot of fun.

    I work for the County- Treasurer-Tax Collector collecting property taxes and dealing with *kitten* on the phone all day long. Do I love it? No. Do I love the people I work with? Yes.

    It all balances out.

    I manage the Lifecycle of IT assets for a large company. I am also responsible for our SOX program, aka, government grant for consultants. I hate it. I hate everything about it. I'm pretty much miserable. But, it pays well.
