Just curious what everyone does for a living at the moment? These are alway interesting non threatening, non tmi polls

!

I myself am a communication studies major, and I work part time doing legal work for a collection agency.

I run my mouth for a living.. I'm the afternoon DJ and promotions director for a top 40 radio station in CT. It's a nifty job.

laurenclaire1386 · May 2010

I'm a paralegal. I sit on my laptop and write legal documents all day. Which makes it easy to click on over to TK and see what's goin on.

salt78 · May 2010

I'm a mortician.

That is honestly the best job EVER!!!!!!!!! I love my local radio station (KDWB) in fact I just won tickets to their "star party" concert today.

I have always wished I was a DJ b/c I love listening to them talk. Jealous!!!!

RE: Radio DJ

I'm assuming that you have to be pretty bright to be successful at that job though. So it's probably not a good fit for you, TinkXXX.

Yah and being a mortician I can see where you learned your social skills.

Nope, never. We do oil and gas work. My boss does a tiny bit of litigation, but he has two other lawyers on staff who help with that.

number55 · May 2010

I am a teacher...grade 8 the past few years...

salt78 · May 2010

I sort of interned (for lack of a better word) at a funeral home while I was in high school. Then after that I got my associates in funeral service education and then you have to take a national exam.

I also have a strong background in theater makeup so that helps too.

nyrek · May 2010

I'm a nurse. Work at a social service agency now. Run a home care program, food bank, and do financial assistance/management with my clients. I do scholarships for the local day school, too. Back in school for my BSN as well...2 more classes in fall and I'm done.

I'm jealous of salt. I applied many years ago to be the morticians assistant...but never got the job.

Kinda hoped to get a job where my clients couldn't talk back.

Randi...my FI just interviewed for selling supplemental policies. Keeping our fingers crossed.

kd.joseph · May 2010

I am a Office Admin at a Platinum Mall property. I work for 7 different people in our office. My hand is in everything from accounting, to contracts, to marketing projects.

We had a WeTV wedding event here last year and I got to meet David Tutera. And this year it's Ron Ben-Israel from Cake Wars.

lisarose7 · May 2010

Currently working customer service in the call center for a national restaurant chain. I also manage all the fleet vehicles for our catering service and process all tax-exempt certificates people send us so they don't have to pay sales tax on their catering orders. I'm also in college part time for another bachelor's degree, this one in Math Education. I'd like to teach either middle or high school.

<div>Yeah I'm full of schit. I'm actually an art director, but I always said that being a mortician would be a great fall back career.</div>

RandiLakin · May 2010

Nyrek, best wishes on FI getting job! Did he interview for a career job? Its real good money!! But lots of stress. Best of luck! and You sound very busy, props to you for juggling all of that! You're like superwoman!!

allisong23 · May 2010

I am an admin for a college athletic department, doing all the billing and payroll, as well as running the work-study program and planning the major events we have.

I am also in school part-time getting my second bachelors (in management). Hoping to start an MBA program after the wedding.

RandiLakin · May 2010

Salt...i love reading your posts. But, why did you lie about that? haha ...strange. Are you a Chelsea Handler fan by any chance???
Art director sounds very classy and chic.

Salt, I just noticed your shoes in your sig. I really like them for wedding sandals.

salt78 · May 2010

Thanks, friend. Zappos all the way.

Night_Sprite · May 2010

That was phrased awkwardly, I like them in general, but especially for your wedding sandals. I don't think they'd be bad if they weren't wedding sandals. God my brain is mushy.

salt78 · May 2010

Haha it's ok. I got what you meant. They actually look pretty cute with jeans too.

californiadreamin07 · May 2010

I'm currently working at a non-profit that does EMS education, so I do a bunch of admin work stuff, but I'll be going to school in the fall to start my joint degree in law and public health! I'm a nerd, but SO excited to go back to school.
