    CAD drafter/production coordinator in civil engineering...and yes, I love what I do. I've always loved construction, and there's just something awesome and powerful about seeing a building, a stretch of road, a runway, drainage structures, that wasn't there before - and I was part of that process. I draw the lines, build the models, then construction workers go make it happen.

    ETA...forgot to actually give credit to the engineers who do the design. Thank you to my civil engineers for giving me a job I love and dirt to draw =)

    Software Engineer for a Digital media company. Loving it, aside from the fact that I stay sit at my computer 10-14 hours a day which is causing me to be overweight :(

    I'm a shift supervisor at KFC and like any job I like some things and hate others. =) But I am only there 2-3 days a week. The rest of the time I am a Stay at Home Mummy to my gorgeous little boy and THAT is my favourite thing to do (apart from the boring housework hahahaha)

    I am an administrator for the Sisters of St. Francis. I love it! The nuns are awesome! They are bright, compassionate, kind and most surprisingly, most of them are very liberal. My coworkers are all very nice and my employees are very dedicated hard workers. It's very nice (and easy) to supervise a group of people who are great workers! :)

    I currently work as a back of house/front of house person at Pizza Hut. I hate it but it's money and it gets me a slight supplement to my income while I study to be a teacher.

    Human Resources Manager currently specialising in Learning and Development. I like my job, wouldn't say I love it - the people drive me nuts way too often! And it wasn't my first choice - wanted to be a vet but not good enough/hard working enough at school:grumble: But it pays the bills - and that's important!

    Registered Nurse by trade, but disabled, so work around the house, babysit grandsons and rest on days with pain. Except for the pain, everything is good.
