For living, I use to borrow other people's watches so I can charge them money for telling them what time it is. I was what is called a consultant. I now predict exactly what time it will be at any specified time in the future. I am now in the forecasting business.
For fun I actually do a variety of things I can be mildly proud of. (January 28, 2014 at 8:59 pm)MrsTRich Wrote: See Drich's post on the previous page.......I'm the boss of all of that You know the reputation of the boss suffers with the reputation of the bossee. RE: What do you do for a living?

For a living?
My biggest income would be my scholarships, so you can say I'm a professional student, . They're enough for my fees and a little bit more, but my financial situation is more complicated than that and involves more than just me, so I've always had to work. I teach high school students and have been doing that for years, it's good money and good training because I have a very short temper (nonviolent outbursts, just insults). Another long term job I've had was as a lowly lab assistant. Basically glorified cleaner and organizer, etc. And like every university student out there, I've done more work for no pay at all than work that I get paid for. But you have to do it, or you're too "inexperienced" in your field to apply to grad schools and such.
I'm a middle school Deaf Education teacher. I'm also a fully certified sign language interpreter.
So essentially I handle daily meltdowns and deal with a lot of homework excuses.

Wow we have a lot of highly educated and successful people here. Makes me look forward to school this summer.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.
Maybe they're the same?
