So what do you do?
 

I'm curious about what everyone here does for a living. Myself, i own my own home cleaning business. I work on my own as I am a perfectionist when it comes to my job....used to have a partner but she didn't want to work so I got rid of her and contunued on my own. It's not a glamorous job but has good hours and great pay and I am my own boss. The only trouble is getting up the energy to clean my own house at the end of the day.:shock: :_(

Hubby is a Manufacturing Manager and works for a Vinyl Siding production company and our son works the hot deli in a local grocery store.

I work for the Australian Federal Government........what do I do specifically?

I won't say.......let's just say though that my work makes me unpopular.

I do IT stuff at a major US University. Love the Academic environment !

I'm a housewife, although I did spend most of my life doing secretarial/office manager work. Due to big problems with chronic pain (too long of a story for here), I'm considered disabled and cannot work. I miss it but I've adjusted well to doing not-too-much of anything ;)

I retired from IT work with the US Forest Service two years ago (deskside PC hardware trouble resolution.) I am a professional photographer now and work very hard at researching plants, especially orchids. My specialty is editorial photography. My wife is retired and I have two offspring that work hard keeping our SS checks coming in :biggrin: My son drives for Fed Ex and my daughter works Medical Records at a local clinic.

I teach Culinary Arts and related theory to young (and older) minds at NAIT. Been in the food industry forever. My s/o is an EA at an Engineering firm and licensed massage therapist. Offspring #1 plays for a living and offspring #2 eats, sleeps and poops! :)

Tin, I used to work in a lab too. I actually graduated with a biology degree and went into research at Indiana University's School of Medicine, and specifically in a Leukemia lab. I worked with mice all day long, and after a while, it lost it's luster. I do love research, just not what I was doing. Currently, after a drastic career change, I work as a Sales Finance Analyst for a liquor and wine distributor here in Indianapolis. There are days that I wish I was back in the lab working in biology, etc, but then I go home and play with my orchids, and I'm over that itch! :)

I surgerize people. It's fun, but doesn't leave much time for the wife, the kittens, or the plants.

I am the other half of HeronRidge Farms (known as the orchid shop). I do the marketing and sales side of things. Before that I was a CG artist working on everything from in game cinematics to commercials. I still do some CG work and marketing here and there but I love my new job of growing and working with orchids all day. My better half is about to launch a new company (a boutique lingerie shop); we are both love working for our selves.
