My official title is Library Classification Specialist, Internet Mentor, Research & Genealogical Specialist, and Systems Administrator.
All of which means I catalog materials, look stuff up, and call tech support at a small town library. It also means that my board is long on titles, and short on compensation.
Well…I could tell you.
But then I’d have to kill you.
Data network analyst/troubleshooter.
I am a customer service rep for a party supply/giftware company. We sell goods to retailers, who sell them to the consumer. With the other two guys in the team, I enter orders for the stores we supply, hand out credits for damaged goods or stuff ordered in error, answer retailer’s questions and help out the regional sales reps. Stuff that I am solely responsible for includes mailing out invoices, sending samples to the reps and assessing claims.
Riveting stuff, I know.
Technical writer for developer documentation.
Medical lab technologist. In training.
I, er, invest for a living. I’m a high-schooler that hasn’t felt like looking for a job just yet so anytime I have birthdays, holidays, or soda-dispension I ask for money.
Oh, and the rates suck so my contribution to the company are matched by approximately .245%. Paltry wages, I’d say. Bring back the '80s!
I’m the right hand of God.
Stand-up comedian
I am the right ulna of God. Sure it’s not as glamorous, but they’d be in a pickle without me.
I am a secretary by day (my card says “Administrative Assistant”, my property manager refers to me in letters as a “Property Management Administrator”). I photocopy cheques and make and answer a lot of phone calls.
By night, I write smut, and get paid for it.
I sell auto parts.
I am good at it, or so I’ve been told.
Been at it for Sixteen years. Time to move on but to what?
I work for a state wide criminal syndicate, we don’t let a certain group of people work until they’ve paid us, then we turn around and hassle em about how they do it.
Nice work if you can get it.
Hi-tech home health RN. Program director/instructor for a dialysis technician program. Math teacher for an LVN program. Proof reader of nursing textbooks.
Yeah. It looks like a lot, but where’s the beef? So many hours, so little dough.
I manage part of the operations support team for a major online retailer. I go to meetings, read and write emails and spent a fair amount of time waving my arms and drawing on whiteboards. It’s a pretty good job. The only downside is that 95% of the management of the company has no freaking clue what I do. They do know that I know everything (not that I do, but that doesn’t stop them from “knowing” it), so I spend a lot of time answering questions.
I am a Director of Education for a Unitarian-Universalist congregation. What this means is I schedule teachers for classes, make sure the nursery people get their timesheets signed and turned in on time, buy snacks and supplies, supervise classes…and every Sunday I get to color or play outside and get paid for it.
I also am a salesperson for a graphic design company. The boss buys me a free lunch every week, I set my own hours, and I work mostly from home.
Oh, and I help my husband deliver newspapers 7 days a week.
My day job? I treat cancer patients with radiation (if I think it could help and if they’re willing to try it).
When I’m not at work, I share parental duties with trupa, and have the pleasant job of being trupa’s wife.
Look for the union label…blah blah blah blah…
I am running a research lab using mini carbon-based life forms known as *Spazticus Weaselus * as my test subjects. Seven years of round the clock work. Everything is ahead of schedule & over budget.
Currently, my previous live test performance on the retraining of a rather common variety of carbon-based life form, going on 12 years of rigorous and strenuous testings have proven a failure on the adult male species. The Adult Male that is being tested is of the stubborn breed known as * Knuckledraggeous Husbandus*. Very common and difficult to train. The study will continue, despite lack of funding. Science stomps on!
The last test is on the species Canis Major Canis minor would be yipe yipe ankle biters. has lasted over nine years on the specific breed of Halitosis Maximus. The subject has passed with flying colors by successfully managed to be on the wrong side of the door for nearly a decade and training its owner to open the door on command of a simple bark. Subject also has perfected its Mind Control experiments as well as *Big Fat Brown Eyes Filled With Wuv * look.
Translation: I live here.
I don’t have an actual JOB, per se, so much as many profitable hobbies. Officially, I’m a professional crafter. To earn money at it, I write product reviews and project instructions for magazines, teach craft classes, and sell my finished work. Somehow, some of that stuff led me into other freelance writing, for which I occasionally get paid. I’m pretty handy with clip art and Photoshop, so I also do some minor desktop publishing for other small businesses (business cards, pamphlets, certificates, etc.) Last but not least, I’m an eBay seller.
