    What line of work are you in?

    I know this was done a while ago but with all of the new members here I thought I'd start a thread again.

    I teach 8th grade U.S. History in a middle school in Houston, Texas. I also coach football and soccer at the school. I teach an athletics class also. In the summer I sometimes work in upscale restaurants as a chef. I have been requested a few times here lately to work cooking but life is busy now. I may work a bit in the summer in one particular resturant. I have been a certified chef for 14 years and have been a certified teacher for 11 years. I have completed my masters of education and will be looking for an assistant principal job after next year. I will start my doctorate in a few years and will stay in the education field and supplement my income by cooking. Believe it or not cooking makes me a lot more than teaching BUT the hours I used to work were nuts. I would work 7 days a week, 85 hours a week. Not good for my marriage.

    Work? Shame on you for using that nasty four letter word around here Mister. I classify myself as retired as I live on interest money from CD's (No, not compact discs) and other investments. What would that actually be classified as? Some titles that come to mind: Mego Museum Inspector, CEO of the Loafing division, Museum Market Place Analyst.....Trust Fund Baby??

      I am a technical manager for one of the world's largest health care companies. My team of chemists and engineers implements new process technology in our pharmaceutical plants around the world. Over the past 2 years, I have travelled most to Italy and Puerto Rico. Some of the members on my team have recently travelled to Ireland, the UK, Germany, and Brazil. It has not always been the case, but I really enjoy my work and the travel is cool.

            I'm "Inspector #12" who puts all those little tiny pieces of paper in your clothes. On a side note if you buy anything with "Inspector #6" you should probably burn it. That guy's got a real bad case of something itchy going on...

                  I'm a Station Supervisor on London Underground(....well someones got to do it.....stop laughing......grrrrrrrrrr..) and have discovered that 21 years on this job is exactly the right amount of time to turn a pleasant person into a bitter, twisted, people hating machine of sarcasm and whinging.

                    For now-I'm a stay-at-home Dad. I'm trying to raise 3 little collectors, (Ages 5, 4, and 17mos.) but I think the youngest will probably be the only one.
