HOLY CARP!!!

People often post about things they've done at work, etc., but I am not really sure what a lot of people actually do. So this is a "tell everyone a little about your job" thread. I'll start, even though my job is far from exciting. Officially, my title is "Telephone Sales Representative" (aka. telemarketer). I sell people security systems. |

Currently I am babysitting 2 children, 30 hours/week. Ages 3 and 7 months. Sounds like a handful, but they're dolls. About to take on another job (with another infant) to bump myself up to full-time hour status. I'm really not that much of a kid lover, but the pay is great and it's better than dealing with crabby people! |

I manage and coordinate graphics (print, video, multimedia, web) projects for a large firm that does research for the government. My actual title is "Graphics Project Coordinator". It's a good job...the jobs are always changing, dynamic, and challenging. I also started an advertising agency on the side which I work on most nights...we have a couple clients and hopefully that'll eventually become a full-time gig once we win a couple major contracts. |

I am waiting with increasing desperation for our green card to come through at which point I will do *anything*........ (Well, OK, almost anything ) to get out of the house. Before the kids came I used to do admin type work which can be good fun depending on the company and means I can follow John around (geographically not literally!) with relative ease - but I think I'm going to need to do something more basic to fit into Mothers hours for a while yet. |

Oh, yes.. sorry for the hijack. I am, if one wishes to put it truthfully, a professional kibitzer. People pay me to give them my opinion of how they ought to do things. I am quite sure this will surprise no one here.

Hmmm... now that I think about it I have heard some people say Larry is full of it. I did not realize they were concerned for his health. That's sweet.

I quit my practice as an attorney to be a stay-at-home mom. That takes up most of my time. To get out of the house, I own a small business that runs a yoga studio. I also do some freelance writing. I serve on a committee at a local hospital. |
