And trust me....you have the hardest job, being a mom to a special needs child. And I can see you're a great mom!!!

Thank you so much. Ethan is a great kid. He has done so well over the last few years. I'm so proud of him, he has worked so hard.

They don't want to have to pay for that.

Thanks

I want to be a professor, so I definitely want to go to grad school first. Actually, I don't want to work for a company at all. After I get my PhD, I might go into Journalism, Publishing or whatever is available (and much more is available when you have a PhD) until I find a teaching job, but I think I want to stay in academia and continue to be a nerd for the rest of my life LOL

Well I'm still awaiting for my sugar daddy to come sweep me off my feet....lol
But on a serious note, I work in the office staff of the orthopedics dept at our local clinic. Trying to change positions and go to the insurance dept while I start school next month to be a certified coder.

I’m an engineer that works at a Telecommunication company. Sometimes I love my job and sometimes I don’t. The company I work for use to have over 100,000 people globally and now we are down to 30,000 and the work load has double…..man,I need a vacation…

I'm a certified elementary teacher. I worked in an inner-city public school and hated it! It was only first grade and I had to have give kids suspensions. I even called the police on one of my students for an attch he made against me. He was very angry and violent.

I quit that job and work part time at a small preschool two days a week Sept thru May. We have lots of holidays in between too. The atmosphere is the opposite of my previous job. I also babysit for a family a few days a week.

I love being just PT compared to FT. I quit the FT job when I became a mom. I have two beautiful girls adopted from Russia. I adopted Anna in Nov 2004 when she was 10 yo and Alena just this past June at age 9 yo. They, plus baby yorkie Sadie (4 mos), keep me pretty busy. It's nice not to have to worry about my job when I come home.

I am a psychotherapist with 10 years of practice and I'm specialized in pet's mourning.

Some people really need help in those difficult moments. Our pets are part of our life, members of our family. So when the end comes sometime we need help to manage it.

I have change my pratice a year ago and I am really happy to help people this way.

I am currently a displaced insurance agent. I had a multi line insurance agency for a few years and I just closed May 1. I think it was a mistake. I am now going crazy with boredom and I need to decide what to do next. Decisons?

I work in the Pharmaceutical Industry in Marketing and Sales. I love the industry, but not necessarily the company I work for. I graduated college not too long ago and eventually will go back for my Masters - as long as someone other than me pays for it!!!

Izzy'smom · 08-30-2006, 01:24 PM

I work in a State Farm Agents Office. The Agent is retiring in March. So I really do not due much now. (but read Yorkietalk all day) But when the new agent comes in, I am sure I will be doing a lot more work. So I will enjoy it until then.
