    Technical writer - desk bound (read: insufferably boring). That's why in my after-hours life I'm a competition ballroom dancer. :-)

    I am a Special Education Teacher in an Inclusion class IN NYC (Queens) :)

    I love my job, but since I started 6 years ago I have gained 40 lbs! It is the most stressful job and I feel like my way of dealing with the stress has been to eat...excessively.

    Now I am excited to deal with that stress by EXERCISING and drinking one glass of red wine a day of course.

    Student full time, graphic designer part time. Sitting down all of the time makes me want to hit the gym all the more at the end of the day.

    High school science teacher! I teach Biology, Integrated Sciences, and Principles of Biomedical Science. I LOVE teaching teenagers, but handling parents is driving me out of this profession... I am thinking Med school--- though I feel too old to go through all of it again starting at 27!

    It's definitely not! There are a ton of people in my class that had different careers prior to medical school. I think our oldest student is in her early forties. That said, if parents bug you, patients can be extremely difficult as well!

    I'm a hair and makeup artist for film and tv! Such an amazing career but craft services (free food) all day 12 hr days! Plus two-three meals. I haven't been working much lately but when the busy season picks up it'll be a challenge!
