What's everyone's job/career/employment etc?

[Shane]

I'm just wondering what everyone does for a living. What do you do? What are you qualified for or experienced in?

I work part time at a university library (10 hours a week), shelving books. I also get part of an unemployment benefit and am looking for more work.

I was working towards my undergraduate degree in psychology but have taken a break (at least a year, probably more).

[badger]

I am a dirty scummy student :twisted:

Seriously, I am studying a BSc in Multimedia Technology and Design and currently have no job. I will be working in Sainsburys over summer, and then possibly for term time too. Woohoo!

[sherrie87]

I am a school librarian, currently working in a middle school (11 to 13 year old students) but I've also worked several years previously at a high school. I have two days of work left, then all summer off! I also have degrees in learning disabilities education and 8 years experience as a social work caseworker for female AIDS patients. I love being a school librarian!

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Statistics and a Master's Degree in Economics. But after working at a bank in both the Investment Department and Residential Mortgage (13 years all together), and a University in the General Accounting Department (3 years), I now work with my father in our Flag store :)

Business is booming and my parents can't run the store by themselves. And I enjoy dealing with the customers, so working retail is a nice change of scenery for me. I also plan on designing a new website for them .. if I can stop working on the ROL so much :))

I am a poor and busy student.

I'm studying for something in the computer bussines.

[heat]

Well, at the moment i'm a full time mum and housewife to my hubbs and twin boys, 7 months.
I'm also doing some voluntary work for Child Line - i work on the phones answering calls from children in danger or trouble.
Previous to all this i've been working as a counsellor with children who have been born with ambiguos genetailia - i was at uni for 3 years doing a certificate in counselling, then a diploma in it. Ive taken some time off from work to look after the kids, but i spose i will hafta go back at some point, perhaps when they start at playgroup. I'm also on call, so if they get a case they can't handle, they will call me in, doesnt happen often so it's not too bad.
Before this i worked with adults and children that have HIV/AIDS. I did that for about three years - loved it.
I've also been a nanny living in germany for 6 months, and before that i worked for Chipperfields circus - i travelled round with them for a while, working in the box office and looking after the animals.

Apart from that, my life is quite dull :wink:

It's a very nice job... but some students.....

[Bren]

i am an artist.I originally trained to teach but decided it was not for me.Ihave a degree in art and English Literature. I specialised in Graphic Design and textiles.Ihave done various jobs from time to time ..mainly working in schools and playgroups Ispent the school holidays ,last summer doing a Summer School at a local High School,painting very large murals with the students to brighten the school.Idon't have a job as such in the normal sense,i wander around the countryside,painting whatever i am inspired to paint,when i have enough i exhibit them.I do watercolours,landscapes ,seascapes,buildings ,flowers most anything except portaits......sadly i do not have the skill to do them.When painting for myself ,i paint from the imagination,often these are inspired by music,or particular song lyrics...these i don't exhibit, perhaps because i put a lot of myself into these.
Apart from that ,house work,housework and more housework!!!

Diablo???
What you mean by that Heat?

I'm a Nurse. Been one for 3 years now and I really love my job.
Next to that I have loads of hobbies and I mostly wish days where 26 hours in stead of 24 :lol:

Asha

[heat]

Asha - A diablo is a thing kinda shaped like an egg timer, and it comes with two sticks which have a piece of string between them, and you put the diablo on the string and move the sticks up and down, kinda like banging a drum, and it makes the diablo spin really fast, and you can do tricks and things with it. :D

Hope that helps... :lol:
