1. What is your job (the thing you get paid for)? I work in the Health Information Management field, which is what I went to school for (at least for my associates degree). Currently I work in the medical records department at a major hospital system in the Chicago are, working as a release of information specialist.

2. What is your relationship to your job? Is it something you 'just do' to pay the bills, is it something that you do because it fulfills you? both? neither? I do the job because it helps pay the bills, but it is also something that I enjoy and it can be challenging at times. You have to be very careful in this field, especially because of all the rules and regulations regarding HIPAA here in the U.S.

3. Do you do other activities that you don't get paid for but consider "work"? I do babysit for a friend on occasion which I don't charge for, but yes, I do consider it work.

4. What is the relationship between your job (or "work") and your moods? My moods can change drastically, especially when I find myself working long hours. I was at a point last year where I was working 7 days a week approximately 60 hours. The pay was nice, but it eventually took a toll on me and I ended up in the hospital because I was starting to have severe SIs.
