    Default Careers

    I'm sure this has already been asked but I was just curious...

    What does everyone do for a living? Does anyone have a job they actually love and have passion for? Anything in the arts, culinary etc?

    If not, what is your dream job...?

    I'm a conference interpreter, I absolutely love it and it's my dream job. Now. (Boring, I know.) When I was 15, my dream job was being an international pop star. I never did anything for it though....
    And I heard so many things I failed to understand at all

    I am more or less a full-time Mummy and I love it...but the money is pretty shit!

    I have a part-time job at a primary school for an hour and a half each day where I organize playground games during lunch-time for 400 children aged between 5 and 11 and I love it...its getting paid to play!...what could be better than THAT?

    Before I had children I worked as a financial adviser for 20 years...bloody hated it...decent money admittedly...but really

    When my own children are a bit older I am going to retrain and go for a teaching assistants job...that is my career goal!

    Love Alma xxx

    Simultaneous interpretation, or as many would say, incorrectly, simultaneous translation.

    I just work crappy minimuim wage jobs now. When this school semester ends I hope to get a better job.

    I want to be a writer, but I also want to dedicate my life to helping people. I want to find somewhere in between.

    I'm a writer, and while I toil away at this novel I'm writing (it's not work, exactly, it's fun) I write and edit for a hobby magazine that's internationally distributed. Pay is crap but I like writing so... works for me.

    I'm also a full time mom. Well, except when they're at school.

    I'm a chemist. I make drugs. It makes me want to poke my eyes out.

    I think I'd be happier being a chef or a movie star.

    Technically I sort of... dropped out of college. I nearly finished, though. Long story. I'm only missing about a semester worth of classes. My degree was going to be in Human Development and Family Studies. At one point I was planning to become a family counselor.

    I think I have a pair of pants to change... excuse me. This mom gig sucks sometimes.

    I'm sorry, Pregs. I didn't mean to be intrusive. I dropped out of college once before myself.
