Default What do we do around here?

Thought it might be interesting to find out what everyone does for a living. It comes up from time to time, but to me, it helps me understand more about everyone's stories.

Me: Jewelry Appraiser/Graduate Gemologst at a high-end retail jewelry store (and in my spare time, I do the bookkeeping too).

DH: manager of floor security at very large (5000 person capacity) country concert and dance hall.

Good idea Gem

I am a stay at home mom that teaches 2 days a week in a private school. I will probably start teaching full time when all of my kids are in school full time

Dh is a teacher and he also buys and sells cars on the side

Gem- That is so funny... I was just thinking this exact same thing.

I am a 3rd grade teacher (this is my 3rd year). I graduated from Clemson University

My DH is an outside sales rep. for a staffing agency that places temporary IT professionals. He also went to Clemson.

I'm a registered nurse for a vascular surgeon.

This is a good idea!

I was a 2nd grade teacher, and then got my Masters in counseling. I work as an elementary school counselor. I also teach an online reading module through East Carolina University (ECU). It is for teachers to keep up their continuing education credits for their licensure.

DH is a computer engineer with BB&T bank.

Me - I'm a House Princess and will graduate with a B.A. in Business Administration in September. I haven't decided if or when I will go to work, yet.

I asked Dh what he does and he said he is a "Unix System Administrator responsible for global data backup and data protection for Blizzard Entertainment, the creator of the largest MMORPG in the world: World of Warcraft. http://www.blizzard.com, http://www.worldofwarcraft.com." He says to "log on and play for free for 10 days at http://www.warcraft.com."

OH no Wendy my DH is going to flip out and be very jealous of your DH!

I work part time at a video store for some extra cash. Can't wait until I'm a SAHM.

Chris is a manager for a clothing store. Small stepping stone to actually be able to use his Masters.

Wendy your DH and I may know some of the same people. I worked over at Interplay Entertainment for 4 years - left when they went under in...what year was that? 2002 I think. I was the E-commerce Store manager.

Now I do marketing for a direct mail house - We do mailings for everything from mortage companies to universities, retailers etc.

DH is a painter.

And my DS is a future writer, actor, director.

Sarah - What does your Dh have his master's in? Blizzard is always looking for good employees. I think their website has a career opportunities section.

Betsy - Yep, you guys might know some of the same people. Dh says that there are tons of old Interplay employees there. That's good to know your Dh is a painter. We might need to call him over for an estimate!

Cristina - Yay for House Princesses!

Oh I forgot to say what DH does.

He works for his university as a international trade journal editor assistant and also does production editing for the journal of borderlands studies.

I'll play!

DH is a farrier (aka blacksmith/shoes horses: Arabians, race horses, roping horses, draft horses, etc.) If you don't know what that is, it's okay a lot of people don't!

I am a senior in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and am currently applying for medical school. I will graduate in May with my B.S. with honors, yay!

Kayla, my friends Farrier is really hot so we only call him the HOT Farrier and when he was over last time it was during my daughters riding lesson so he walked up and started talking to her and she said "Oh your the Hot Farrier Mommy and Sheri always talk about" We wanted to die, but when I read what your DH does I had to share with you because I thought you would get a kick out of it
