    Default Regarding jobs/careers

    Explain what you do for a living.

    I'm a receptionst/dispatcher who spends about ten hours a day on the phone talking to either unhappy people or unhappy technicians.

    Over the summer, I worked for an big iced tea company as a customer service troubleshooter.

    Right now, I'm in college to become an English Teacher.

    My last job was two summers ago working in a museum store that sold exclusively Star Wars merchandise.

    I am in college to be a historian or a history professor. I want to be a folksinger.

    What inspired you to be a folk singer? That's awesome. xD I wanted to be an archaeologist, until I found it it was nothing like the Indiana Jones movies.

    I work part-time at Next at the minute, a retail assistant or something. I'm hoping to go to University doing English where I'm not sure if I'm going to go down the teaching route or something in journalism. I'm just at college at the minute doing my A Levels (English Lit, Sociology, Media Studies and Photography)

    I'm in my second year of college, studying Interaction Design. I'm not sure yet if I'm going to focus on web design or industrial design in the third year. I haven't had a "real" job so far, just a series of freelance jobs.

    I like folk music, have a talent for singing, and enjoy playing the guitar. I can't imagine anything making me happier than singing songs and getting other people to sing them, too, for the rest of my life. The writing part is even coming along!

    If you're successful at doing what you love, I think you have it made.

    I'm going into an electrician apprenticeship and hope to join the RCMP within a year. If I can't get into the RCMP I'll just continue on as an electrician.

    I am an actuary, which is pretty much a fancy math guy who works for the insurance industry. It's a pretty good job.
