What kind of job do you do?

Laboratory Technician in an aerospace company.

I have degrees in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, but at one point I had to decide if I wanted to keep my job or let someone get hurt. The decision was easy, but it lead to myself and my family ending up homeless. So now I just break stuff and burn stuff for cheap wages and don't really care to ever be in charge ever again.

Right now i am a self-employed domestic cleaner.
I used to be an enabler at Uni but had to give it up.

Freelance writer, been doing it for years. Lately my clients include a charity, a couple of universities and some magazines.

Up until about a week or so ago I was a software engineer.
Now I am setting up my own business creating websites and software.
I only graduated this year so... only lasted about 3 and a half months in the job.
I had worked as a software engineer for a year placement during my degree and hated it then too.
I'm good at engineering software I'm just not good at being tied to a desk.

I'm a drunk trailer park supervisor. My assistant Randy (also weekend trailer park supervisor) and I have been running Sunnyvale for several years now.

Assistant farm earthworm picker on leave due to management restructuring

I want to say nothing. I like this thread,*smiles*
The question is, is this really the job you want for the rest of your life....
Nobody likes to be tied to a desk.
Can we all be entrepreneurs? I don't know.

Fancy that, I been involved with IT for the past 5 years 2 jobs, current one 3 years IT tech, last job team lead for 1 team of 100, pretty scary right

I work in Human Resources and have been in the same job/company for almost 4 years now which is good because it's stable unlike anything else in my life it seems.

Physician

Office work at an insurance company... oh how boring lol

For the past year and a little bit I have been an assistant at a daycare. I love the kids, but I constantly worry that all my coworkers think I am horrible at my job and that all the kid's parents think I'm weird. I have nightmares about getting fired all the time. Before that I was an intern/assistant type person for a company that does kid's birthday parties and after school programs. Though I was only in the office, not with the kids for that job. Before that I sorted clothes at Goodwill, but that was through my school's vocational program so I only got $20 a week. It worked out to like $1.50 an hour!

The first two jobs I had I got through my school's vocational program, and the one I have now I only got because I'm related to the owner. I worry all the time that I will never be able to get another job because I come off as too weird. After my second job's hours got cut way back I applied at every place in town that was hiring and some that weren't and never got as much as a call back, except for one place that emailed me and stopped replying when they found out I didn't speak Spanish. (It was a Mexican Restaurant, but they said "fast food" on Craigslist.) So I worry even more about losing my current job. I always worry that I will have to go back into the hospital and I'll lose my job, or if I start cutting again and they find out they'll think I'm too unstable to be around children.

Someday I want to own my own handmade jewelry business online or have a store on Ebay where I find things for cheap, clean them up and sell them for more. But I'm worried I'll get a bad feedback on my first sale and never sell anything again so I haven't started yet. Plus, I don't know if I'd be able to make enough money doing that to support myself. Eventually I want to be able to have my own little brick and mortar shop where I sell a little of everything I love.

Registered Nurse

Pharma sales

Senior Accountant. I was laid off in 2009 due to the economy, went back to school, scrambled with part-time jobs but since a few months in a position that is right up my alley: full-time accounting position at non-profit organization.
For all people who are unemployed and looking for jobs: keep the faith! I know it's not easy because I've been in that position myself but things will work out at the right time.

office assistant in an agency that certifies adult foster homes. i'm a paperwork gal but would love to invent something.

I'm currently in nursing school. I work two jobs, both as a nurse's aide. One on an OB unit, the other on a med-surg unit. I'm a chronic job hopper, but I hope to settle in the NICU someday. My dream job would be to work with babies.

I'm in nursing school. What field of nursing are ou in?

unemployed due to my poor communication problem

I've worked for the public library for 7 years. I like it because we share all of our things and help the public. Plus I don't have to sit at a desk all day.

I used to work at high level positions in large offices. I have been unemployed or working from home. I just started a job at a pet store. They don't know about the lupus or any of my other issues. It's only part time but there will be a lot of heavy lifting during short shifts. I am doing it because I want to be a dog trainer and they offer a training program for that. I am scared but I have been home and isolated for almost eight years. I really feel like I need to do this. God help me.
