i was wondering...who else is on this website!? out of all of us, there has to be someone who has some kind of important job, aside from being a student or working at Burger King.

So what do you all do???


p.s.-if you're ashamed of your job, then just say that it would be some kind of national security risk if you divulged that information

...and everyone will be like, whoa! ;)

I am in the Air Force Reserve and am an ART (Air Reserve Technician). Basically I do the same job during the week as a federal civil servant that I do on drill weekends in uniform. I work in Personnel Readiness - I'm the one in my unit who receives the taskings that send people overseas. I prepare the orders and messages that go along with that plus have a few other responsibilities not technically related to Readiness but are mine because I know the job ::). We are an A-10 unit and our reservists just returned from a rotation in Afghanistan. I was extremely busy during that period, and am now catching up on day to day responsibilities.

I love the Air Force Reserve and have clocked in over 14 years now. I've been overseas twice, Spain and Kuwait, and can't wait to go again. I'll probably be one of those people that they have to throw out due to old age. :lol2:

I am an Administrative Assistant (Secretary) its an ok job, I have three bosses.

I wish I could be a full time mom to my son but unfortunately the day I found out I was pregnant was the same day my husband found out the company he was working for was going out of business. We went through a lot of our savings but now that my son is almost a year old (birthday March 27) our savings arealmost back in order and hopefully in the next couple of months i will be a stay at home mom and pregnant again. (I will be 39 in may and I do not want to have a baby after I turn 40!)

My mom and I have a lot in common. I think she's doing a good job with my sister and me. She's the authority figure, definitely, but she understands children and teens so she's more liberal than most parents. I hope I have a successful career of any sort one day so I can take care of her when she's old, starts dying her hair purple, and drawing on her eyebrows. :-* for great moms!

I get that a lot. I look a lot older than my years also. I always got confused with a girl who is now a freshman in high school because she looked almost like me (tall, frizzy brown hair, glasses). It was kind of funny. I've heard that high school is promising though (I'm going to be going to a semi private school in town for free because I'm a local. There will be kids from all over the country, plus Asia and Japan and some other countries!)

I went to college in England for a semester. The administrators wanted us to tell the English students how lucky they were because their government paid for their college. They conveniently left out the fact that we could choose whatever course and major we wanted and persue any career we chose while their students were told what to take.

I met one girl who wanted to be a nurse but was told there were too many students taking nursing courses so she had to take engineering courses.

It all sounded pretty insane to me.

My headmaster at primary school asked us what we wanted to be when we grow up - and everyone said predictable stuff like fireman, doctor , nurse, policeman , soldier that sort of thing and when he cam eto me I said I wanted to either a Paleantologist or a Historian - and he paused for a minute and then said 'You'll never be clever enough' - I have hated him ever since :'(

Hey G---I love art! I love to paint and get creative with whatever it is that I do. The thing about art is, it is your perspective on it and you don't have to care if anyone else gets it or likes it. It's a creative venture to release yourself! And learning about all the different art periods is awesome! It's really fun to see how it has evolved and gone back to the core so many times! Painting is a great stress reliever, and there is so much you can do with it! You could be another Pollack and do splatter paint, call it art and make millions!


But if you don't find your happiness there, then I know you will soon enough!

Being a nanny has it's good days and it's bad days. I've just switched families and I'm hoping this family is going to be easier on me than the last one.

The last family I was with had major emotional problems. The kids were horrible to me. Except the baby. He was the love of my life.

This new family should be better. First off I'm going to be paid more money. Which is always good. I'm also only watching 2 kids instead of 3. The only downside is that both girls have major physical impairments. So it's going to be physically harder but emotionally it should be a cake walk as neither of these kids can talk.

No I am not super nanny. lol That cracked me up.

They were so horrible at times. I used to hear on a daily basis how much they hated me. Why you might ask? Well I was doing my job and making the kids accountable for their actions. Something their parents never did. I even had a talking to by the father. He told me to stop putting the kids in timeout. I told him it was the only way to defuse some of the situtations. He finally caved and let me do it after a loooooooooooooooooong debate.

He should have been on his hands and knees thanking me that I didn't beat those little brats like they deserved. I could spend hours telling you some of the things those little monsters did to me and I never laid a hand on them. In my line of work it's hard to find someone who doesn't beat children.

A banker? Like do you reject people for loans and stuff?

Not loans, but accounts. hehe!! I open new accounts, teller, file, and just about everything but loans. hehe!!

Luckily I don't get to tell people no on a loan, but if they don't pass chex systems, I get to tell them that they can't open a checking or savings accout. hehe!! Ya, they aren't too happy sometimes. So keep in mind that writing bad checks is bad and will nip you in the butt. hehe!!
