I am an ornithologist . Not only do I have a bird at home, but I also get to work with them in the field. Nothing better than that! Looking to get into graduate school, but not in any hurry... the more field experience I have, the better!

Wow, all these cool jobs. The bounty hunter/model one is my favorite as well.
As for me...well I am a "Embedded Software Tester" ...sounds pretty good for a 19 year old with no college education, right? Basically I work for EA, breaking their computer game. :-D pretty fun. The Significant other/Domestic Partner/Boyfriend works there doing the same thing. Its typically a 9-6pm job, but some nights can get VERY late(midnight-ish?). My boss actually let me leave at 3:30 on friday though so i could go get my GCC! Its pretty laid back. I did feel bad when i had my cockatiel - by the time we got home it was dark and he was ready to sleep!! :( Pickle, the GCC seems to like to stay up a bit later though.

I'm an in home support worker for the elderly or not so elderly who have come out of hospital after an operation or such. It includes anything from showering to housework to shopping and dr's appointments. I'm only casual at the moment, so might only work few hours a day, but its very tiring. And the bad thing is, after spending 2 hrs doing someone elses housework, I cant be bothered doing mine when I get home

I am a CFO for a travel agency, been there for 18 years. Has to be one of the most stressful jobs known to man. Not the accounting part, but this particular company. Good Lord, the drama in that place, I dream of one day being able to do something, somewhere that I actually enjoy.
I have a great husband (second time's a charm) and two spoiled fids & two great teenagers, one's a senior this year so I need all the advice I can get on college entry and the like.

We would love to live in Colorado or some other horse area out west. We have an African Grey, 11 months old and 6 cats (that live outside). Any ideas on nice place to live with some land and close to hospitals? Have a nice day.Pam

Since I entered adulthood in 1978, I've been a full time student (2 bachelor's degrees--Fine Arts and Teaching), an animal control officer, a veterinary technician, a carnival worker, a cook at a Mexican restaurant, a full time parent, and a Special Education teacher. Nowadays, I'm simply a freelance artist, full time wife (children are grown, nowadays), and slave to our furred and feathered family.
