Default web design!

I'm a web designer! I sit at home all day on my computer! although its awesome being your own boss, I do have to really watch what I eat, because my lifestyle is so sedentary.

I was a stay at home mom till 2012 when my husband was forced to quit his job. I was a janitress (?) for a semester, cleaning the local youth center and another one cleaning the local park. My husband has some land and in this area it's the country's production of cherries, peaches and appricots. He has turned since he gave up his job towards production, got rid of the old trees and planted new ones and we take care of them slowly nursing them untill full production capabilities reached. In June and July comes the real hard work for us since each cherry is hand picked. /cry. I really hate it, it's tiresome and I'm fair and end up burnt even in my hair roots . But money is good aandnd we can't live only on his disability pension, it'll get better and if I finally manage to lose much weight I'll maybe be able to maintain a regular physical job and who knows maybe land a decent one.

I'm a student in computer science , but what I would like to do for a living is helping people as I have a passion for nutrition , unfortunately life isn't always what you makes of it and you find yourself stuck in the road your parents choose for you.

But I will keep fighting.

I'm an assistant language teacher (ALT) on the JET Program in Japan. I assist teaching English in a junior high and two elementary schools. It's lots of fun, the kids are great, but teaching as a permanent career path probably isn't for me.

Emergency trauma nurse. I love my job. I get a lot of walking in every day and if I ate better consistently and didint indulge when stressed, I probably wouldn't have to worry about weight. I'm an emotional eater, and I have a huge weakness for chips/bread.

I work as a state and local tax associate at PricewaterhouseCoopers or PwC....yes the same ones who messed up the Oscars! Lol. I've only been here for about nine and a half months but it's pretty interesting so far.

No, I wasn't one of the 32 but I was in the next year, which means mine was the first year that women and men went through together from their deacon's year to being a priest in a "normal" kind of a way.

I'm a phlebotomist and also a teacher/trainer of phlebotomy. Not a job most people would like, but I love it and I love passing on my knowledge to others too.

I do office work for my living (get Illness benefit) and I LIKE it. Since my former employer gave me paid leisure time from one day on another. The funny thing is they are unable to explain it. I'm quite happy to survived that company^^

That woman who sent me "home", didn't know that I also studied an office job.
Another funny thing is I can see their office windows :-)

The main thing is that the hobby is to your liking. After all, everyone has different tastes. So I like to read books, and my husband collects knives. And so we rest.
