Subject: What do you do for work/career?Hi All. Not sure if someone has already started a thread like this but if there is one out there I definitely couldn't find it.
I myself am an Operations Manager, I like to think of it as a fancier name for babysitter, for a distribution company. I pretty much run the operations department which includes shipping, receiving & anything else to do with the warehouse. I have 7 employees which I babysit Monday to Friday. With all the drama, bitchin & whining, I feel like Im in high school all over again.
I recently got my diploma in Accounting and have started the degree program this past year. Right now im taking the summer off from school to really think about my career choice. I'm a pretty active person and love being on my feet, which I do for 8 hours a day as an operations manager. I have lately begun to think about whether to continue with Accounting or move onto something else. I just don't know if I can sit at a desk for the rest of my life.
Since I graduated from high school, back in 2000, I've gone to school for 3D animation, which I left because I lost interest. I wanted to be a firefighter, but gave up on that idea due to lack of available jobs ( I was told that approx. 3 to 4 out of 96 students got a job in the Vancouver area in one year ). Now im doing the whole accounting thing which isn't bad at all but im not sure if it is right for me. Thinking about what to do with my life kind of depresses me as I feel that I've gotten to an age, im 27, where I should know what I want to do and should be doing it or in the process of achieving it.
BUT anyways, I've always been interested in what other people do for work, not sure why but I just have, so I thought I'd ask. What do you do for work/career?
