    I currently work for a property management company handling muti-family units, commercial property, and properties in receivership. I handle light bookkeeping, light marketing, court reports and filings, and the day to day tasks such as maintaining supplies and organizing files.

    I am also going to school for my Bachelors in Psychology and hope to graduate next year where I will then search for a job to utilize my bachelors while going to graduate school. I wish to become a psychologist in a hospital or for the courts via family law.

    I am a Registered Nurse, have been working in Labor and Delivery for the past 20 years. For the most part I love my job and can't imagine doing anything else! Its not a cushie job, sometimes the hours suck , I get pooped on, peed on and occasionally sprayed in other body fluids. I sometimes spend 12-14 hours on my feet and do not always get my "alloted" break times. Some days I get screamed at, sworn at, and feel underappreciated.......... but everytime a baby takes that first breath.... its all worth it. :flowerforyou:

    Self employed real estate appraiser. Mostly focus on commercial/industrial/office but also do some residential and vacant land. Right now I'm working on a landscape/nursury business, a nature center, a home/land being taken by the State for a road project, a home that just burned so insurance co needs an estimate of 'before the fire' value, etc. Always something new and challenging but its become stressful given the decline of real estate market the past few yrs. Always somebody mad at you

    I'm a prevention educator at a rape crisis center so I spend a lot of my time in classrooms/at community events talking about child abuse, bullying, intimate partner violence, sexual harassment and sexual assault. That also means that I'm an advocate for assault survivors so I work our hotline to talk to people and answer questions and I can go with them to law enforcement, medical exams etc.

    I'm a writer.

    Not the cool, novel-kind, though. The boring editing, article-writing, blathering on about homes/business/relationships/fashion while I sit comfortable in a skirt and sweater kind.

    I'm lucky I'm married because, as it turns out, freelance writers don't exactly get health insurance...or guaranteed paychecks. You haven't lived until you've had to chase down someone that printed your writing, is contractually obligated to pay you, and somehow manages to be out of the office for weeks when your expected check doesn't show up.
