1. Waitress/Baker

2. At times I love it, at times I'd like to rip my hair out and go running into the street.

3. No. I had full on plans to be a full time at home wife and mother. Got away with it for 13 years too..divorce had other plans for me.

4. Bigger dream..to be a writer sequestered in a mountain cabin somewhere ( with electricity, interwebs and plumbing of course ) or have my own bakery, OR..hit the lottery and travel till I drop. Home base deep in the country for complete peace.

Whats your occupation?
I work in the accounting department at a large corporate office.

Do you love it?
The work is incredibly boring and the hours are long, but it pays well... =/

Is this what you always planned to do?
Growing up I always wanted to be an actor. I always had a starring role for the Christmas and Easter plays in church, I even did plays in school. As a teen I did a lot of drama in my youth group at church too.

Are you content with your occupation or Do you have bigger dreams?
I am planning to go back to school this fall. I am going to change careers and find something to do with my life that is more fulfilling than what corporate America provides. I am currently thinking about getting into either education or psychology. I know I would like to work closely with and help other people.

Whats your occupation?

Writer/Designer/Trainer - I work part time on each

Do you love it?

Yep love them all

Is this what you always planned to do?

Can't remember back that far. I was going to be some high flyer in media but I went off that for some reason. Not very fulfilling.

Are you content with your occupation or Do you have bigger dreams?

Yes content - I had a proper career until last year. My aim is to have several part time income streams to spread the risk, while doing work I like. I get bored easily so having several lines of work helps.

1. Press liaison for large publishing firm

2. Nope, growing up I always wanted to be a spy πŸ˜‰

3. I don't know. Everyone in publishing stays for decades but me...I'm only 26, so I feel that's a little young to have my career cemented. I might go to gradute school, become a sociologist, or maybe work on that whole spy thing...lol.

A chemical engineer, cool.

I was an analytical chemist for a while. But, it seems you can do chemistry in Thailand to....

What I do now makes me want to gouge out my eyes, rip out my tongue, and disembowel myself. I will not elaborate further, as I do not feel to need to depress myself.

I am also a student studying computer information systems. That is actually what is giving me enough purpose and reason to put up with my current job. Trust me when I say, May can not get here soon enough.....

I'm a professional piss artist. My real job is a Scientific laboratory technician responsible for laboratory-based tasks, which include sampling, testing, measuring, recording and analysing results. The money is great. I've done quite a few different jobs I had to work really hard to get this job; I needed a lot of help with my essays, but I did it in the end.

disemboweling yourself sounds very painful....but you are working on fulfilling you dream so thats what matters most a means to an end...paying your dues

i was a nursing assistant/orderly/nurse aide (whatever they call it now) to help pay for my education expenses. i will never forget the things i saw working at that hospital..ugh. not for me. but i commend the ones that can handle it.

i always new my place as in the lab or on field. πŸ™‚
