We (my siblings and I; I don't have human kids) were in 4-H, various competetive teams, performed all over the state in a Scottish/Irish dance group, and hung out with other homeschooled kids. I had the highest SAT scores in our entire state that year (granted, it was an impoverished and illiterate state, but still...), and attended an Ivy League college. I say again, homeschooling rocks! :cool:

wait, r u talking about how my grammar is on the internet?

haha, its not school, i could care less how well i write on a forum

I am an electrical engineer working in the research department for an aerospace company.

I came to this thread late . . . it was very interesting! Sorta blows a lot of misconceptions about people who keep snakes doesn't it?
:carrot:

I am the COO at a non profit that helps employers find the right person for their job vacancy, helps job seekers find the right job and trains individuals who have limited or out dated skills.

well after taking three years off of work and not planning on returning wife wanted new house so we sold our old house and bought a new house and i return to the work force as a manager of a production department with 50 people under my watch. not a bad job but it's like baby sitting

I know this is old, but I'd like to see it come back a bit :P it's pretty cool. Anywaysm I'm and architectural engineering student at OSU, working at Sonic...talk about fun... :weirdface haha

I missed this back in Jan......I am a medically retired Firefighter/paramedic and now work for a village as a code enforcement officer.

wow you guys make me feel great about my job lol


I supervise the lumber and building material department at the local Home Depot. I do all of the lift equipment training there as well. That at least keeps me somewhat entertained. (wow some people are scarey on forklifts!)

I have been job searching as of late myself. Looking for a job with a steady schedule so I can get back to school.

:cool: I'm a kid poo target

I'm reponsible for 16 kids while their parents are off doing something that society actually thinks is valuable! That's right, child caregiver at a daycare! I work in the three year olds room. They keep me laughing, and growling, and running around every which way. I love them. But I hope to go back to school soon to get my degree so that I can go back to daycare and make a living wage... not $10 an hour! WITH my government wage enhancement that my favourite prime minister :rolleyes: has decided to repeal as of April... am I too rich for you, Mister Harper? Nine dollars is better for you?
Is it really good that most childrens' caregivers finish their day at daycare, then go to their second jobs? I'm not bitter.

No matter how little I make though, the kids are totally worth it :)

I am in Sales... Pet Supply sales... I run all around Houston visiting pet stores... Its an awsome Career!!!! :)
But it sometimes makes me crazy :rolleye2:

right now I'm a professional bum. *grin*

at the moment, I am currently disabled and am working on correcting that and heading my carcass back to school for criminology/forensic labwork

oh I'm also a professional masseuse
