What job do you do?

[Leah]

Thought it might be interesting to see what jobs people hold and if anybody has a job they really like (have yet to meet somebody that does!) or if they hold a great job?! (is that asking tooooooo much?!) even an interesting job........

I work at the post office :down: , can't rave about it but its an income!!!
My love of my life is songwriting and i'd love to have a career as a songwriter :pray:

I am an administrator for the local hospital - working in Maternity. I deal with all of the appointments & scans - ensure that every woman booked at the hospital are seen att he correct times. I also have to sort out all of the paperwork for 9 clinics a week. Get lots of phone calls from patients - GP's Midwives - other organisations - some not so nice to deal with :(

I love my job - just do not like the people in the office too much :devil: They do not appreciate my sense of humour or my commitment to my own clinics.


Heli - you want a film score with drums in a few years - remember me ;) ;) ;)

As most of you know I am learning the drums - I would love to do it more in public to boost my confidence - but - that's life - I just love them anyway.

Vicki

[Ageing Bat]

I'm a Director & part owner of a Plastic Injection Moulding company. My main responsibilities are to ensure the company complies with current employment, health & safety and company law. I'm also responsible for implementing the quality control system as well as dealing with the financial aspects of running a business. I've worked damned hard to get where I am, and it's sometimes been pretty difficult juggling raising a family and having a career.

In my spare time, I do a bit of freelance work as an event security guard for a family friend. I also make wedding boquets and arrangements which I find very relaxing.

[Cathie]

I'm a student, and from October I'll be at University. Apart from that, I've been working at an art and craft shop for the past couple of years. I used to work weekends but now I work whenever they need me cos I'm not at school. I love working there, the people I work with are great and the shop is fantastic, a little Aladdin's cave full of interesting finds. :D Every time I go in there it's full of new stock! We've just moved the shop so we're now on the high street so it's busier than ever!

[needmoremeat]

I got a job a couple of weeks ago at the Empire Theatre working backstage as a dresser for the performers. Currently Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is showing there until March, so it's been a madhouse! While it has been amazing and hilarious at times, I won't be staying on after Christmas, it's too much for me: six nights a week until half ten and two afternoons. I think I'd prefer a day job!:lol: However I did see the car flying a couple of Saturdays ago, which is the main thing!;) :lol:

[MeatGrl1]

At the present I'm unemployed but I've been in retail for a good many years, worked a bit in a kitchen, well I say that I only loaded and unloaded the dishwasher and that's about it. With the credit crunch the way that it is atm I feel that there will be a good many more months before I actually find something and it doesn't help when you look at the news and yet more people are being put out of work, it's not exactly a confidence boost :( !!

[samurai7]

Dave

[meatloaf-unofficial]

Currently I work part time as a waitor, approx 15-18 hours a week. When I'm not a waitor in the hotel, I'm working on music, making contacts and gaining experience for what I wanna do.... Sound Production!

But the ultimate job would be a singer/performer - am working with a group of folk at the minute so you never know ;-)

Sharon, isn't it time for an update?

[Battybarb]

at present i work in my sister in laws pub,originally i worked as an insurance actuary for a large insurance company,i loved it,but left to have kids,went to work in pub part time to fit in with school day with kids,still working there after 22 years,must be something good about it..lol...

[needmoremeat]

Don't have one :( Wish I did: I spend my days watching reruns of Top Gear on Dave, and reruns of Frasier on Paramount, even though I have all eleven series on DVD. Although for the moment my TV viewing and sleep patterns are solely defined by what is happening in the Australian Open!

My Dad was due to retire next month, but he had an operation in December, and his sick leave is taking him up to retirement, and I'm already feeling the strain of having someone else in the house all day! lol.

I'm spending money online that I really should not be spending, not least until I'm getting a decent, constant salary (on Jobseekers at the moment, very depressing for someone with a university degree).

It's so hard looking for jobs at the moment. The local papers used to have 500-600 jobs a week in, now they're lucky to get 200. I'm applying to places and rarely getting any response. News of more job losses nearly every day now is even more depressing, I really feel for those who had jobs and are now in the same position as me.
