What do you do for a living?

[helpme2010]

Unemployed of course. But I am thinking of becoming a tent salesman. You know, for all those unemployed that will soon be moving to tent cities!

I am an attorney in Chicago. However, looking to make some changes. Thinking about becoming a professor or business consultant.

I am a professional grandmother to four granddaughters, lol. Hubby works as a Home Theater Installer, and installs all sorts of home automation products - sound systems, alarm systems, telephone systems, plasma TVs, etc. He is also a retired Navy chief. We are moving in a few months to North Carolina once he gets a job, hopefully in his field of electronics.

I am a special education teacher. My husband was a union carpenter who hasn't had steady work in over 3 years so he is working 3rd shift at BJs stocking.

They are trying to AUTOMATE that process and/or outsouce it to India people.

I wish sometimes... Maybe they could do the enemas remotely. That'd be funny.

Medical Jobs definitely have their drawbacks...

[NCGirl2010]

Figures.... they are already outsourcing our medical information, why not send them the pictures to go with it? This infuriates me to no-end.

I was a (industrial) construction manager/cost controls engineer before being terminated in the fall of 2008 when I underwent emergency surgery & chemo and could not return to work for 12 weeks. Unfortunately this happened in VA and being it is an "at will" state, I didn't have much of a case for wrongful termination. Been doing consultant work when I'm physically able to since and working on additional certifications in cost engineering and LEED. DH is also a construction manager in the telecommunications industry.

Now THAT'S scary. When law firms start going under, then you know the economy's going to hell.

Thank you for the welcome RichM.

Yes, I had worked for the law firm for 8 years straight out of the military where I was a PM. The firm had twelve associates and lawyers and the entire firm when under when clients stopped paying their bills.

I have been looking for work for 8 months.
