What do you do for a living?

Heating engineer, I repair and maintain peoples boilers and heating systems. Not very exciting but I'm never short of friends in the winter!

I manually *kitten* caged animals for artificial insemination.

I design clothing... no its not as exciting as you think.

I think it's a neat job, though. I watched Project Runway for several seasons even though I can't even sew a button onto a shirt. I guess I just like the artistry of it.

Ya, its basically nothing like that at all...lol. School was like that, in the industry they plop u infront of a computer and u get to "sketch" there. I like my job, I just don't love the industry anymore.

I actually read every single one of everyone's jobs - very interesting and diverse group on here!

I am an office manager/accounts payable manager for a Construction and Property management company and I absolutely adore my job

Hm, trying to figure out if I'd enjoy sketching out designs all day, but I shouldn't bother, because I can't do that anymore than I can sew! So you sketch a new idea, and show it to someone, and they tell you whether they want something like that or not? Or do they tell you what they want, too?

Manage twin 5 year olds by day, Passion Parties Gypsy by night...

I am a professional classical and jazz musician. But my path here has been "interesting". Started out as a musician, got a PhD in Psych, became a Psychiatric Social Worker. Hated it. Went into I.T. Was an I.T. manager/director for almost 30 years. Got VERY tired of it. Retired from than and returned to music.

They say what they are looking for, I research it, sketch it by hand, gets approved by my boss, sketch on computer, approved again, put onto a layout, approved again, then I do a tech pack, make changes, etc etc.
It's sportswear so it's not incredibly exciting, but its a good work environment, a great company and closer to home. I should stop being such a whiner. lol.

Meh, no, I'd hate that. Too much supervision. :noway: I hope you can find a better place to work doing what you love!

I'm a bilingual teacher...I explain everything three times, once in English, then again in English very slowly, and finally in Spanish if they still look at me with those big Bambi eyes, lol. 2nd grade =D

Awww, that's a neat job, too. I couldn't do it in a classroom, but I could probably tutor one on one. Thinking about moving down to Argentina in a couple of years (that's Patagonia in my ticker image) and hoping I can pick up something like that to get started (or better yet, translating for tourists on backpacking and trail riding trips, now that I could do for a long time!).

I'm not fluent, though. My explanations in spanish might make any students I had study harder to learn english just so they won't have to put up with my atrocious grammar and accent!

Edit: I should say I could do the backpacking and trailriding one if my back lets me. I'm willing to try for a job like that in a beautiful place like that. Who knows, maybe after I lose the weight and get in really good shape, I'll be able to.

WOW so many cool jobs on here. I want to be all of them. I am a sign language interpreter. I work all over medical, legal, educational, mental health, classroom, business.... I even get paid to take a cruise every now and again! Love my job!!!!
