Where do you work?

Good questions for the newcomers. I, also, am very curious. Here is what people said seven months ago.

Work

I’m retired from education-related careers; research, teaching, and administration.

I’m a preschool teacher at Kids R Kids.

Tech support for a hated company, freelance designer.

I work at a major bookstore chain. Looking to move on, though. I used to build websites and would like to start again, but the learning curve these days is tremendous!

I work at a daycare for high school students’ babies and I love every second of it. I have learned so much both from the kids and these teen moms.

I work at Stuyvesant High School, being a student.

i am the graphic designer for a small web marketing company. our owner also owns 4 new horizons computer learning centers on the east coast [US]. (NH is a worldwide IT training company, with over 300 locations). i am a rowing coach and a photographer/mac geek/artist on the side.

I am a Carpenter. At 8 years old my father started teaching me how to read and draw blueprints. When I was 12 years old I started doing residential wiring with my father and grandfather during the summer. By the time I was 15 I wired my first house, by myself. Then learned how to do plumbing in a couple of months. I then started laying brick and block for two and a half years. Finally, I found my true love in framing. Apprenticed in that for three and a half years. It is a very rewarding profession. To start with nothing but raw materials, and finish with, possibly the biggest investment most people make in their lives is very rewarding. I have been in construction almost all my life, and I feel I have earned the title “Carpenter”!

I work at a dog kennel!

I sell produce on the side of the road every year from July through October at two locations. I have been doing this since 1994. I also have a lanscape curbing business that I operate from April through October. I spend the winter months at home relaxing with the family and fighting cabin fever. 4 months off every year is way too long.

I work in a metal fabrication plant. I work in the CNC department as a laser operator. Basically, I take a sheet of metal and use a high powered laser to cut out parts for buses, cars, metal shelves; just about anything metal.

I’m a computer technical for a small company called TitanPC for south and central jersey areas. I basically do everything and anything when it has to do with computers. It’s not a bad job, i do what i love.

I work for a shipping company. We are like travel agents for freight we get physical goods from point a to b.

Who was so generous with all the “great answer” votes?

the fluther fairy?

Well not to toot my own horn, but TOOT TOOT! Is that my new name “the fluther fairy”?

Well, that was mighty white of you, uberG! Wait, I think I am having de ja vu! Let’s not start that again.

artist, I travel to art shows with my work and I sell wholesale across the us.

I am a medical administrator for a podiatric group.

I’m a special needs monitor for the local transportation department. Basically, I ride the bus with children who require assistance (mentally/physically disabled). I’ve actually learned a lot, get good pay for someone my age, and enjoy working with the kids a lot. It’s not my ideal job, but it’s not like ALL my prior jobs where I could easily look back and say “it was so not worth it,” or “I hated that friggin’ job.” Still doesn’t make me happy.

In my basement…I am trying to soundproof it better so sock monkeys don’t keep me up at night!! Lil B@st@rds are nocturnal and had I known I would have never picked them up hitchhiking!!

I work in a testing center.
