Full Time (confused about where it's going ) Student at a nice Community College with crap students. And I was working for Golden Corral Inc, until I got suspended for soemthing I didn't do....so my managers think I'm coming back in a week, but I'm not, so does that mean I'm unemployeed, even if they don't know yet?



*it's 4 in the morning...maybe it's the sleep deprevation....

During the day I work as an administrative assistant for a construction company and a couple of nights a week I waitress at an Irish Resturant/Pub. I am also taking
EMT-B classes and if I decide to go further in my training there most likely will be a job opportunity with that in the future. I also make quilts to order in my spare time.

As I already asked Where do you live?, just wondering what some of you do for a living? Are you self-employed (such as myself as I own a small real estate appraisal company which consists of myself, 1 full time & 1 part time employee), work in retail, entertainment, student, retired, etc..

Didn't put this in the original post, but I'm also retired from the USAF.

Wow, lots of impressive jobs!

I just work part-time at Safeway in GM/HBC doing stock, prices changes, customer service, writing orders, etc. Not too exciting.

My job description is kinda a tough one.

My title is Sales/Tech Support.

I basically sell large phone systems and maintenance on them. That's only when I'm not on-site at a customers location, helping out working on their system. Or when I'm not dealing with problems at a customer site from my home office location.

I also take turns monitoring the systems we maintain after hours from my house.

I'm a full time Emergency Services Dispatcher for the Schoharie County Sheriff's Department.

I dispatch county Sheriff, New York State Police, 2 local police agencies, State University of New York at Cobleskill Police, Encon, DEP, Power Authority of the State of New York, 17 fire departments, 9 ambulance sqads, county ALS, as well as keep contact with County Highway Department.

Our office is also after hours contacts for CPS/DSS, Mental Health, Probation, DA office, County Highway, State DOT, and many other agencies.

In other words, there's a whole lot of stuff going on, and they trust it all to me for 8 hours a day at night!!

I recently (today, actually) got 2 letters of commendation, one from the Sheriff himself, and one from a fire department for my handling of a multi-agency structure fire that left 3 families homeless

Hey for those that don't know, I am a teacherthat should be a 4 letter word but is actually 7 This may be my last year teaching though I won't know until Monday. That is when I will find out if my contract has been renewed...if it hasn't I think I shall be going into another field, though at this time I don't know what

This is my seventh year teaching...For 6 years I taught in the Jr. High setting, and now fully believe that that is where I belong, not in the the elementary setting...To be all out honest I am a bit tired of everybody's life being based on one stupid test TAKS(2-4 letter word). It is just a bit insane how public education has become this day and age, and that's my story.

Trying to rebuild a career after time taken out nursing my (now deceased) mother through osteoarthritis and Alzheimer's.

Anyone wants to hire a web developer, give me a call

Past career included games software development, and real time programming for embedded systems (including some I'm not allowed to say TOO much about).

I'm also hoping that someone in the publishing world will look kindly upon my writing. I spent 4&#189; years and 700,000 words on one project, which I'm still waiting to see in print.

Career aspirations not helped by twonks in management who think that 'software development' consists of putting together collections of pretty buttons for the users to press, with NO knowledge of the underlying code complexity needed to make it all hang together, and whose idea of a deadline for a project the size of Adobe PhotoShop consists of a phone call to some other twonk in red braces saying "Yeah, it'll be finished next week".

Then wonders why the company goes into liquidation 10 days later.

I once had half a mind to go into politics. Then I realised that this made me vastly over-qualified for the task.

Cynical, moi??? Whatever gave you that idea?

Oh, almost forgot. Will happily accept position as roving international troubleshooter for MI5 or other position with similar jet set lifestyle and gung-ho action followed by steamy passion with exotic ladies included in the benefits package.
