    I quit the rat race and became a pet care provider. I walk dogs and pet sit (mostly). I work for myself so I have a super flexible schedule with little overhead. It is so much better for me than sitting at a desk being a graphic designer. I wish I could give back my student loans and hand over the degree I haven't used in years. hahaha

    I am unemployed (I guess you could call me a stay at home mom) but I'm pretty sure I'm going to be offered a job tomorrow (or soon after) for a job working in accounts receivable at a company that sells semi trucks. Lol.

    Do you want the pessimistic version, or the optimistic version?

    Pessimistic = I kick people out of their houses.

    Optimistic = I oversee repairs to make foreclosures into homes that owners can move into instead of leaving them in crummy shape so that investors buy them and potentially leave them in crummy condition and rent them out.

    I get a lot of sad stories some days. I get to see a lot of happy stories other days. It's a very emotional job.

    I work at a supermarket as a cashier. That is what 6 years of college and 2 bachelors degrees got me in this economy.

    I provide engineering software support......but like most people what I actually do is sit in front of a computer most of the day, answer/make a few phone calls and emails, and I make coffee. I make a lot of coffee. :)
