    I got my Master's in Education this year, and am currently working at a treatment center for troubled teens...I've always planned on getting a doctorate...let me put it this way, I'm thinking of getting the doctorate in social work so I can keep with this field :)

    There are days that are a struggle, but there are also days when we can see that we are making a positive difference for kids who seem to have everything at odds with them.

    this has depressed me...should have decided on which uni I want to go to, finally narrowed it down to a course "criminology with law", hate all the universities in england that do the specified course as a major/minor ...therefore I'm either moving to and studying in America, or doing another course either criminology with something (joint honor) or just criminology ...
    For a living...hmm I don't have a life anymore ..studying is my life for the foreseeable future

    I finished a two year internship in August and at the end of it got a job to give me some money while I figured out what I'm doing next. I've been a receptionist for three months and I cannot stand it lol! I have to be constantly on the go and being challenged and I never am. So I'm thinking about going to Uni to study possibly business! :)

    I am studying to be a nurse, just finished my first year and I have three more to go. I never thought I would be going to uni and I never planned it when I was in high school. I work part time at a local supermarket. It took me 2 years of working to figure out what I want to do and even to this day I wonder if I could do anything...

    I'm a demand and supply planner. Don't do it cos I love the job, just that I am quite good at it and fell into it 7 years ago. Would love to do something different but don't really know what, which is part of my problem. Plus starting again would mean dropping down pay scale which cant afford to do!

    I'm a "Project Support Specialist" for the oilsands. Basically meaning HR/admin/coordinator...

    I moved from my home town to come here because it pays really well, still to this day not sure what I really have the passion to do for a living, so for the time being, it's $$$ in the bank.

    I was a teacher and an administrator before spending ten of the best and hardest years of my life as a stay at home Mom. Went to law school at age 40 when my youngest child started to kindergarten and am now an attorney in private, solo practice. It was a difficult time to enter any market, and this career has not brought the financial security I hoped for, but it's a job. Maybe I'll go back to school again when my kids are out of college. :-)

    I'm a medical transcriptionist, which means I sit on my butt all day listening to doctors and transcribing what they say. It has its advantages. My work station is at home, so no commute, no work wardrobe. But it's really pretty boring, and my butt hates it.

    I'm an HR Director for a Fortune 50 company. Keeps me so busy most days I have about 5 minutes for lunch and eat dinner around 8pm every night if I'm lucky.

    I remember those kind of hours. LOL
