Nifty Thread! :D

So many cool professions!

I am an artist and designer. I help run a theatre/entertainment company with my spouse, where we write and perform interactive history based shows, and murder mysteries.
Right now I am preparing to work the summer at various Renaissance faires across the midwest. (I am designing a school for wizards.)

I'm also a psychic reader, and have created and published tarot decks.

And hopefully this year, I will make enough moola for a trip to WDW! (my last four were cancelled!)

You will find this ANYWHERE!

Trust me, I've never seen it this bad. I've worked at the casinos down here in Tunica, FedEx, fast food and another warehouse job. I've NEVER seen it like this. It makes me wish I was back in the service. You get someone sandbagging and holding up the rest of the folks you just hold a blanket party in their honor. Problem solved.


I know that IT works with people, but right now I'm pretty much a babysitter and I'm responsible for more than my supervisor AND our DM. I pretty much run our shift, and that's something that other people will tell you so it's not my ego or anything.

Spent the last 7 years as a newspaper reporter, and currently cover high school sports for a smalltown paper. Thinking of going back to school to study psychology at some point. Basically I'm still trying to figure out what to be when I grow up...a question I probably should have answered by now, considering I'll be 30 this month. :lol:

I am an office manager, A/P, A/R, HR and IT (not that I know what i am doing with the IT stuff) and whatever other hat needs to be added for a small commerical door and hardware company.!!!

Me, too! Except that I work for a sports marketing company, and where you've got accounting (we got big enough a while ago to create an accounting dept, so I don't have to do that anymore ;)) I manage all our legal stuff; that and IT are outsourced to professionals, but I direct their work.

DH and I also bake...we have a small home business that is keeping us very busy right now in our spare time. Its a great way for us to pay for Disney vacations!!!

We have a bit more in common! I love to bake, although I don't ever see creating a business out of it. The larger the company I work for grows, the less time I seem to make for any of my hobbies. :( We were three people when I helped start it up over ten years ago, and now we are 60 full-time employees.

Bingo...it's why I am going for the MBA for a year and getting out of this banking/finance world. Although, I think that I would find corporate finance over bank finance to be more interesting.

Interesting thread, I love reading about others' careers :)

I was an at home mom, but now I work for the red bullseye. Just something to do until we change stations in a couple months, since we don't have much time left here :sohappy: After that I will probably be going to school.

We all go in with this image of Gordon Gekko, dollar signs, and sharp suits... eh, maybe in the 80's. It's so automated and computerized with analytic and algorithm models that your ideas and decisions are actually minuscule from a macro perspective
