A mortgage? If not, then try all sorts of things until you find something that you enjoy. I graduated from hiogh school back in 1978 and I still don't really know what I want to be when I grow up. Good thing that hasn't happened yet  Right now I am in IP network engineering, and manage a test facility. |

Champion 4835 Eat Cheese or Die | Subject: RE: What do you do for work/career? I have a BS in Environmental Science/Earth Sciences with a minor in GIS. I also have PA Secondary Ed certification in General Science and Earth Science and most of a Masters of Education Completed. Now I'm a sales manager for a small manufacturer which makes products for the electric utility industry. While I love my job, it is not intrinsically rewarding. When I finally decide to grow up I like to think I'll go back to teaching. I had to stop career jumping when I had a kid. Up until then my wife was fine with it. If you don't have those pressures keep trying on new careers until you find one that fits you. Edited by graceful_dave 2009-06-15 9:14 AM |

| Subject: RE: What do you do for work/career? Have a BFA in musical theatre, but decided not to go the NYC route. Also have a Master's in Lit. Was laid off in January, so currrently working as a lowly office manager, until the economy shifts some. I could teach, though it's not my ideal job, however, schools weren't doing any hiring when I was laid off (just lateral movement of existing faculty, and salary cuts), plus, they weren't even hiring English teachers a few years ago when I finished grad school and considered it - just math and science My job kinda sucks - a monkey could do it. But it's better than being unemployed. And it's only temporary, in that I don't plan on working here forever. I'm a permanent employee, but it's not exactly a life goal to be an admin for the rest of my life. Just where I have to be right now. |

Extreme Veteran 660 Texas | Subject: RE: What do you do for work/career? Human Resources Manager for a commercial construction general contractor. I've been wanting to get out of HR since I began my 1st HR job 13 years ago...too much babysitting of whining/complaining employees (I have to remind myself that this isn't high school)! However, I've worked my way up the ladder into a pretty sweet position at a great company, so I have incentive to stick around for awhile. I finished my MBA last year and was hoping going back to school would spark an interest in a new field, but that didn't work. I guess you could say I am still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up. |

Member 82 | Subject: RE: What do you do for work/career? mmrocker13 - 2009-06-15 10:33 AM No...I'm succint. Brevity is the soul of wit, you know. ;-) On looking up brevity: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/brevity You seem to be correct on that note I'm a fund accountant. Basically, I have a set of mutual funds that I do the accounting/pricing for on a daily basis. I took the position this past February and feel I've already learned what I can from it, so I'm looking forward to moving on to something else. I'll likely shift more toward corporate finance, and away from accounting. I've got my ducks in a row for B-School, but want to finish paying for undergrad first! |

Veteran 331 Roxborough Park | Subject: RE: What do you do for work/career? I'm in ad sales. I sell the advertising for a major inflight magazine. I'm also making the shift from media sales to media buying- I have a small company (just me, really) and am representing small businesses who need some formal representation to handle their media buying without a massive price tag. That's where my heart is- helping the small businesses grow. |

| Master 2009 Charlotte, NC | Subject: RE: What do you do for work/career? aquagirl - 2009-06-14 8:25 AM Hey welcome to BT! I am a very sleepy NICU nurse.......work 12 hour nights. I have a moratorium on tired . Now if you will excuse me I have to go and struggle with my insomnia.....which is a wonderful sequella of many years of shift work. You are an angel to so many parents. My twins were in the NICU for 2 months, one of them really sick in the beginning. So sick they told us to call our priest, he wasn't going to make it through the night. I thank you and all the angels who help our kids. I stay home with my kids!!! Best job in the whole world!! Edited by tricrazy 2009-06-15 4:33 PM |
