What do you do for a living?

I know they say many Pisces are into the arts..

How many live up to this or is doing something totally different??

& are you enjoying your field of work?

For me.. I'm in the military.. When I come out I would like to be a paralegal for like the DA's office... Or just simply retire.. Hahaha

Enjoying?? Hmmmmmmm.... Somewhat.. Everything has its ups and downs

I'm a musician and producer. It's a hard job but a very rewarding one so I love it. On the side, I help run a few start up furniture/rug online vendors with some partners and an online record shop with another friend.

Landscape designer/project manager

I took a significant pay cut in order to stay in the design side of things and a few years later its now paying off. My favorite part of the job is getting to be creative. The difficult clients, sloppy subs, and headache of finances is the least fun.

I'm working as welder at steel fabrication company, I'm enjoying it because every product has different shape and different challenges, but i often yelled by my boss for spacing out when working 😆.. you know pisces are scatter brained so i need to cooling down for improving my focus..

I am an Admin Assistant for the Army (DoD civilian) for a colonel, GS-14 and GS-15 bosses. I LOVE my job! Been promoted numerous times and I have been working as a civilian for 29 years. I work M-F; no weekends, NO overtime (I don't abuse the system as I get the job done WITHOUT chit-chatting for fours and then working 11 hours to make up for chit-chatting for four hours), Federal holidays off, 401K, Humana HMO, dental, annual/sick leave, etc, etc, etc!

🤗 cyber hugs!

Love,

Eva

I work in IT. I have done hardware repair and technical support, but I am transitioning into programming.

A long time ago, I did try to have a music career, but I gave up on it because it wasn't really going anywhere and I wasn't really making money. If I could do anything, I'd be a writer (it's too hard to get a stable job writing for a living, which is really why a lot of people who love the arts don't work in the arts, i.e. quitting music, not pursuing writing, working in technology). If I didn't need money, I'd honestly do nothing for a living. I don't personally think it's possible for work to be something I could "enjoy." That's just not the point of a job, to me. Also, I'm lazy and I know I am, though I definitely hide it well. But I could never be into "work," there is just no way to make me want to do that, regardless of the field. Just being honest, lol.

I have that same trait of never going to be into work.. But yea it's hard to make stable money in the arts

I'm a service manager for a construction equipment rental company. It's a hand full most of the time, the summer months here boom with construction, winter slow a bit. Overall it's a go job, I seem to be good at it& it can be rewarding at times

I'm soon to be unemployed. But I'm a social worker. I've mostly worked with families and children. I have gone back and forth between Child Welfare and Public Assistance caseloads.

I'm thinking of going back to school to get my Masters Degree in Adult Education.

Wow.. Nice!!!!

Are you going to leave you job to further your education??

Nah I'm leaving my job cause I'm burnt out. I have to get tight with Department of Education before I go back to school. Next Friday is my last day, and the waterworks have already started. And I'm not talking about me either, my coworkers are freaking out. Which is funny because I'm going to be the one unemployed.

No. I don't really know what people could do about it either. People on here don't tend to bother with me but if they told me I was a piece of shit or whatever I'd just shrug and move on with my life.
