if so - what is it that you do.

if not, what would you rather be doing (job wise... not something like professionally watching oprah)

I'm a kindergarten teacher and YES I love it - I definitely couldn't do the job if I didn't.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my new job- its a lot of work but its exciting all the time and keep this ADHD brain hopping. It is just great!

Oh, for those of you who don't know from all my panic posts when I started last week, I am the Dean of a public high school here in CA.

i do account management for a major Hospital system. the work is mehhhh but i love my supervisors and coworkers- its a nice working atmosphere.

my ideal job would probably be acting on Saturday night live, or writing for a show like that

or.... as one of those people that travels allover the world and writes reviews of the places theyve been to

Used to be a lawyer. Sort of kinda liked that. Now I am an investment banker (switched to work for one of my old clients). The best thing about it is that I get to boss my old bosses around. I like it. I'm still trying to figure out what I would LOVE doing though.

Re: QOTD - do you love what you do?

I hate what I do. I work for Costco. The money is great but I hate the people (co-workers and members). I would really like to be in day care. Or work with little kids. I used to work for tudor time but there was no money in that. I make more than double now.

I left my job that I hated and have been professionally watching TV as well as looking for a job that I will love. I think I found it, so hopefully, I can retire from watching Oprah in the next couple of weeks.

I work for a vocational rehab. program. It assists ppl. who have been in jail or people with mental and/or physical disabilties enter the working world. I teach some of the job readiness courses, I interview the clients for admissions, and I test and evaluate their skills and behaviors for job readiness. I love it!

However, my goal is to be a psychologist someday. I'm currently in school and working on it!

Re: QOTD - do you love what you do?

YES!!!!!!!!

I'm a college professor. I just finished my PhD last spring so I'm on the job market for a full time, tenure track job. But for now:

I teach at NYU 2 days a week - I dont think I'll ever have smarter, more engaged students again in my life so I savor every second of it.

I'm a full time, visiting professor at Hofstra and work there the remaining 3 days a week) - it's good - I prefer to teach upperclassmen - but no complaints.

I dont think I could do anything else in my life.
