    I am a manager in a loan store. I don't mind it I guess but the pay sucks horribly. And I'm not a fan of the crappy hours.

    Before this I was a SAHM for 13 years, the last 3 doing home daycare as well. So this is my first out of the house job. My dream job is to be a lactation consultant.

    I am a Senior Manager of a technical call center and I am a big believer it’s all about the right people on the bus! Surround yourself with the best team members you can and focus on helping them do their job (best practices)!

    I like my job, I really like coaching and would always be interested in a new challenge! I like to fix things, make things more efficient, and keep it simple!

    I'm a customer service and rental assistant at a manufacture rep for sanitary process piping equipment. It has me sitting 90% of the day and I don't get to utilize my people skills like I want to.....so I'm thinking of going back to school and getting a degree, just not sure where I want to go! It pays the bills and is flexible around my childrens schedules, but I know I am capable of so much more!

    I work for a state government agency as a fiancial analyst. I handle the registration of investment advisors for my state. It's not terribly exciting, but I enjoy it. I'm serving the citizens of my state and that feels good.

    I push papers, read the news, browse MFP, stare out my window, occasionally call a few IT executives and get them to agree to buy ridiculously expensive software.

    No I don't particularly enjoy it. I'd pick a new career, but once a month a little bonus check comes my way and the vicious cycle repeats.

    Customer Service\Sales at a local (small bis) computer repair/retail company. I love the techo end of it but I don't enjoy being yelled at and blamed for things I had virtually no involvement in....:sad: I get yelled at almost every day :cry:

    I also am a Beachbody coach so I can hook folks up with P90X , Insanity and even Shakeology and save them money , I :heart: love this job because it helps transform lives for the better but really can't put the time into it I would like to because my main job takes up so much time and energy.-Would love to be a personal trainer one day tho...

    I sell Concrete Minerals makeup too it's vegan and bright pigment colors and oh so much fun but not enough time to do much with that ether.:flowerforyou:

    I'm a receptionist and I won't go to lengths to say I hate my job, I most certainly do not enjoy it. It gets very boring, not interesting, and I commute in DC traffic... almost 2 hours in the morning the past couple of days :-\

    I have a degree in Web design and though that's not a huge concern to get into for a job, I would love to do something creative, like painting, making jewelry... that's when I'm the happiest. :)
