I am a Admin Assist for an oil and gas company processing Joint Interest Billing, maintianing production reports and paperless filing system. This was a career change and huge move from my home town of Houston. It was one of those decisions in life where you needed a change and to get away of negative people and situations. Prior to my current job of 7 years I was an Oil and Gas Regulatory Specialist/Operations Tech. Basically would take care of the permiting and regulatory issues for onshore and offshore drilling/production operations in the Gulf of Mexico. Also assist the engineers with misc stuff. |
I agree...what a diverse group we have here with their jobs! I am the medical records manager for a long term acute care hospital. I also do some physician credentialing (we are a small facility so we all were many "hats"). In addition to this, I serve on the local board for our youth baseball association, full time mother to 2 teenagers (well, the youngest will be 13 next month) and 2 furbabies. My youngest plays on a select traveling tournament baseball team and I keep the stats for that (he's been playing select ball since he was 8 and I've been keeping the stats that long). And my hubby (Sam) works for the fire department here. I want to say a quick thank you to all of you for sharing a piece of your life in this thread. It's another great way to get to know you all!

You all have really exciting jobs!!!! I was a Student Supervisor for 14 years. But After adopting three of our Special Ed Students, I became a stay at home Mom. We own a Construction Business, my Husband and I started it around 26 years ago. I kind of help my husband, I write out pay roll checks on Fridays, and collect rent from our properties once a month. But mostly I don’t do anything but take care of our children and furbabies all day. We have two in Pre Med, two in High School and 1 having our second Grand Child. All live at home except for our Daughter and Grandson. Oh and I do shop a lot, it’s kind of addiction, my husband tells everyone the manikins wave to me when I pass them in the stores. :) |
I am a stay at home mom to an 18mo old and a furbaby. Before I had my son, I worked in the OR as an anesthesia tech and was in school to get my RN. I planned on going back to school to finish that once my son started school, but we are now expecting our second child, so it will now be put off until that one starts school. After the RN, I wanted go go on to become a CRNA. My hubby just got a job in GA as a Mechanical Engineer and we will be moving there in a couple of weeks! |
During the day I work for an engineering company. At night I train dogs. |
I work as a Testing Specialist for county school system. All the standardized tests come out of my office. My main responsibility is to order materials from the state, prepare those materials to go out to schools (22 schools with 12,000+ students) collect them back/account for all and score tests then report the data. There is a whole lot that goes with that but that's it in a nutshell. Right now I'm writing a database to score benchmark tests. That's the fun part to me. I enjoy my work since it's not the same thing day after day and the pay is decent but I do have to work 12 months a year....I'm not one of the lucky ones like at the school level that work 10 months a year. Benefits are great since they are state benefits and I did just take 7 weeks off to care for my dad and then came back to get pneumonia and be out another 2 days and didn't even get a cross look so you can't ask for much better. |
I am a COA. (certified ophthalmic assistant) Basically I assist the eye Dr's in a clinic. It's pretty fun, I have been doing it for almost 9 years. I want to have another baby though and maybe look for a job in the school system in the health office or helping special education children. I can't do that though until the Dr that I work with retires! I can't leave him, I've been with him too long and I think my partner would have a heart attack!!!!!!! |
insurance agency owner I own an insurance agency with American Family Insurance. I do everything here from agent and service stand point. I am at the point that I am getting ready to hire. My son has been trying to pass the test but no luck so far. This is a very stressfull, competative job but does give you flexibility and freedom |
I just recently graduated and received my MBA and now work for a major Consumer products company as a Marketing gal and Media buyer/planner. I'm also a Public Relations Director for a Chrisitan Church. |

I am the coordinator of public relations and development for an area not-for-profit. I hate doing the development work, though. I am looking for another PR job or would like to get into pharmecuetical sales. |
Judging by the diversity of our yorkie talk friends occupations, we should all be able to ask for any medical, legal, financial, or jail conditions advice needed... ;) I am co owner of a prodomiently male business with my brother. We sell automotive service equipment. This is the equipment you find in service bays of auto repair shops or dealerships (ie. lifts, tire changers, balancers, etc). I've been called honey, sweetie, cupcake :eek: by male customers...right up until they realize I know and understand this equipment :D If you've been in a Walmart service center, Sam's, Tire Kingdom, plus literally dozens of others in Virginia....you've "seen" our work. Being the boss does not mean you get to take off whenever you want to....it means you work MORE and worry about the money coming in vs going out....it DOES mean ya can check yorkie talk whenever ya want ;) |

I have a background in PR and was going to go to law school right out of undergrad, but I feel that I need to get my feet on the ground instead of going right into law school and accumilating $120,000 in debt. I love love love doing PR and I feel I need to find something that is a bit more stimulating than the position I have now :p |

And I deal with it everyday~ Men come in and Explain something or as a question,,and I answer it, then they say " I need to talk to one of the guys." I then say " Well they are busy repairing automobiles and there time is WAY more valuable than mine, plus they'll tell you the same thing I just did!" Then they are usually speechless,and listen to what I have to say. :cool: Sign behind my desk~ Do you want to talk to the MAN in charge or the WOMAN that knows what's going on? :D |
