What do we all do for a living?
MsMercury:
I didn't see an introduce yourself thread so I thought i'd jump in here. If there is an official intro thread then point me to it.
I work in an optical lab and also work on the sales floor selling and fitting glasses. I've been in optical for 15 years now and i've got 13 years experience in the lab making glasses. I like the work, I hate the company. CEO America just sucks. They don't care about you at all, just how much money you can make them. Is it my dream career? No. I have no idea what that really is so for now, this will do. ;)

optom3:
I started off as a clinical chemist,(hours way too long working on call) went back to Uni and became an Optometrist,less long hours but non stop.
Moved to the states and became stay at home mom.Longest hours of all,and the hardest work of all.But so far the most gratifying
Am I doing what I want,yes and no.
No, because Untill I developed arthritis at age of 17 I was going to be a ballerina.I was obsessed with it.Never even had a back up plan.Just lived for ballet.
Yes because I love the fact that now I have kids,at long last I get to spend time with them.Back in the U.K we had a nanny.
Is it full time,you bet.!!!!
Can I work at home. Part time, in between running non stop taxi service,acrosss half of Florida,to gymnastics,tennis and wrestling tournaments.
Not to mention the mall,the school bus run,psychiatrist appts, and lessons for all above sports.You get the picture I'm sure !!!!
Would I change it. Not any more. I used to wonder how life as a ballerina would have panned out.But it drove me nuts thinking of it,so I gave up wondering.
