What's your job?

[Loading Please Wait]

I'm just being curious. What do you do for a living? A career or job or whatever you decide to call it. Are you a student, a stay at home mom, a doctor, an Astro physicist, or are you retired?

Do you like your job? Is it a temporary situation until you find something better or are you in it for the log haul?

To start, I work for a large oil field manufacturing company. I build valves and equipment used to drill inshore and offshore. Never been offshore and don't ever really plan on it. I like my job and hope to work my way up and retire with my company.

So, what's your job?

What kind of farmer? I have plenty of family and friends who are farmers. I live in Louisiana and I'm not joking everyone has a sugarcane farmer in their family.

I do admin for a small business, work part-time for a computer repair shop, and I work at a locally-owned restaurant. Yes- I have three jobs. It's a lot, but they certainly keep me busy.

Nice that's definitely a big work load. Always something for you to fall back on!

I'm a theoretical physicist by training, after a decade in research I now started a family and in order to feed it I work as a physics lecturer, high school teacher and uni textbook writer. I've spent a good part of that decade thinking about the Higgs boson, my first book project was on graduate level field theory, the second is a general training book for undergrads, and right now I'm working on introductory theoretical physics for advanced undergrad, and the translation of the first one is a done deal as of yesterday.

I'm so jealous of the farmers. I want to be one so bad. I feel like the only way to afford a farm is to marry into one or grow up on one. My husband's family is slowly building a ranch by adding a few animals at a time that I hope to help out with one day.

I have two jobs right now. I'm the senior teller/CSR at a small town bank on the week days and a breakfast hostess at a hotel on the weekends. I got the second job simply to keep me busy while my husband worked (EMS so he works 24 hour shifts) but then I decided I needed a big new truck so now I need the second job to pay for it lol. Well I don't neeeeeed it but I would rather not have to go back to never going out to the movies or to restraunts like when I was in my teens. I hope to be a stay at home mom (I worked at a daycare and I know I never want my child to go to one full time because I see what happens once the parents leave) My husband is almost done with school to be a paramedic, while working full time as an EMT, so when he gets his license he will get a very large increase in pay which will dwarf my two paychecks so I could stay home. We are going to start trying in January for our family so hopefully in the next year my life and job will change!

sorry for tmi... I over share sometimes...

I manage the data entry department for a state Medicaid contract. The work isn't too hard, my staff is great, and the hours are regular. I qualify for early retirement at half pay (55 years old and 20 years with the company) but I'm not in a big hurry to retire, which probably means I like my job well enough.

I run a small business in a small town. Not going to say much more because I'm afraid that if people here knew about my atheism then business would totally dry up.
