..You do for work?

Thought this may be cool to get some info on us here. Find out what are career paths are and have taken us. Either you are going to school full time, part time with a job, to running your own business or slaving for someone else to the unemployed.

Where do you work? What do you do for work?

I work for a company called Battery Systems. I work in the warehouse, getting orders ready, helping walk in customers and deliver around the Rogue Valley.

I used to work at US Xpress. Trucking can be a tough gig.

I now work in Finance as an Intern at the Chattanooga, TN plan for Volkswagen. I'm going fulltime soon as a Budgeting and Forecasting specialist, though

Was that long haul or OTR? Did you have flatbed or refers? We are longhaul & international (Canada & Mexico) no refers or flatbed, strictly trailers.

Chemist. Essentially acting QC lab manager at a pharmaceutical company (my boss left last month, and I've assumed many of her duties without the title).

Time for a raise perhaps?

I'm a Full-time Student, working two on-campus part-time jobs: One in the Chemistry Lab and one in the Library.
