What do you do for a living?

Goldie · 03-03-2010, 10:11 PM

So I did some searching, and if I overlooked an existing thread I apologize.

I am just curious, what do you guys and gals do for a living? How do you fund this sickness that we all seem to have?

I'd be happy to start. And on a side note, if you have one of those jobs that you can't tell us about without killing us, feel free to keep it to yourself

Ok, here goes,

My name is Drew and I live in Dublin, Ohio. I am currently enrolled in an American Sign Language interpreting program, so in 6 quarters or so, I hope to be looking for an interpreting job.

After I finish with that program, I have been considering an audiology program at either Ohio University or Ohio State University. I'm not sure yet. It is a 6 year program, but with transferred credits, I should have 3 years already knocked out. Or at least I hope.

So there it is. Anyone else care to share?

If I pay in cigars, could you collect the stuff between my toes?

I am a full time student majoring in Biochemistry, minoring in Spanish.

I work for the Dept. of Public instruction as an AmeriCorps member, basically tutoring k-1 graders.

Love that movie.

I'm the director of operations for a market research firm. We're the people who figure out that 4 out of 5 dentists prefer Trident for their patients that chew gum.

What I really do is a lot of baby-sitting nervous clients and pissing on fires.

Full time student at CSU Chico. Will have another degree in Criminal Justice in December (I already have an AS but this will be a BA). Then hopefully Vegas Metro or CHP.

For the last 4 years and now when I'm home on breaks I work as a Park Ranger at a lake in my home town.
