I did a search and couldn't find a similar thread. Just curious as to what people do for a living!
I'm not asking exactly where you work, or your annual salary.
I just wonder what you all do - and do you enjoy it? :)

Personally, I work in the motor trade - in the side of the business that requires me to wear a suit - and I love my job! :thumbsup:

I'm an American journalist. *waits for jeers and spitting to subside*

It's not as bad as it sounds: I'm actually just a mild-mannered general assignment reporter and restaurant columnist at a medium-size (and shrinking) daily afternoon newspaper in a two-newspaper town.

I was a social services manager until ill health forced me to stop working. I'm a city councillor - well, at least until 2007, when I'll find out if my electorate want to choose me to do this job again!

Mechanical Engineer.... its ok most of the time.

Head of RE at a sheffield high school. It's ok I suppose.

I'm studying to become a solicitor but I work part time as a home-care assistant :) I get to drive round to peoples houses and help them wash/dress, prepare meals, check they've taken their medication and generally help them out/tidy up etc :)
Its not bad, caring is more "me" than my previous job in a cafe... More active, physical, never in the same place for longer than 45 mins... Its all good :D

Civil Servant - yes another one :rolleyes:

Much of the week i work at church doing allsorts of things. I also work one day a week teaching at Hallam Uni and on the side I do a bit of freelance writing and speaking!

Im the despatch manager for a Cutlery manufacturer in the city centre, i do a little bit of everything, including spending too much time on the internet! :D

I'm a journalist, and I write for a specialist health publication.

I'm a mortgage broker. Which means i do advice on the best mortgage but instead of working for a bank/building society where i know ONE lender inside out as a broker i need to know about 15 lenders that i mainly use and about a dozen more that i can submit business do.

So as it says in my profile, a mortgage broker has to work for a living!!!!

I used to work in nightclubs, I moved to America and became a Banker, After a resent divorce ( 2 years) I became a firearms dealer. Sounds more exciting than it is I get to spend my days talking to Hill Billys about guns.

there isnt one for a mom!!! im very proud of my job! not many moms can afford for only one parent to work but thankfully we can so i have the luxuary of raising my own children!

I'm a journalist. But not a bad, nosey, celebrity chasing one. I'm a nice one. I also DJ, which gets me only slightly less money than my proper job, but takes about a tenth of the time.

I'm in a band, but that' makes me no money. I make a fair bit of money from gambling in the summer. I like to keep fingers in pies.

Im a panel wireman. I wire building management system control panels, which then get installed in schools, hospitals, hotels, sports centres, cinemas etc, and control all their heating, lighting, air-con, etc.

'Business Development Manager'.
I sell contracts for all kinds of environemtnal monitoring surveys and programs; emissions monitoring, COSHH assessments, noise surveys, asbestos surveys, contaminated land investigations etc.

Littlestarshine - i am also a full time mum, i have 4 kids the eldest 15 the youngest 3 - have been a SAHM for all these years, suddenly decided that it was time to do something for me so became a WAHM - hard work but possible - i get the best of both worlds now, my children and a job.

I have to say that being a full time mum is the hardest job i ever did.

I invest on the horses for a living, as well as being a full-time (cough, cough) house- husband. I have done this since July 1994 and have never regretted saying goodbye to working for somebody else. Now I am my own boss and when I win its all mine, I do the work I get the reward, unlike when I working. I love what I do and would not swop this job for anything, and on hot sunny days like this I can top up the tan.:hihi:
