    I'm a CNA in a long term care facility (aka a nursing home) I'm hoping to get hired into a hospital where I can do more stuff, and further my career in the medical field. I want to eventually get my RN.

    Damn! After posting my response, I read EVERYTHING and found that everyone has amazing jobs so....I'm going to make mine sound more galmerous.

    I am employed at the largest family owned pest mamagement company on the West Coast: Clark Pest Control. We assist home oweners, and property owners, with erraticating and protecting their most valued assest: their home. We provide services for general pests as well as rodents and termites.
    My specific jobs are scheduling appointments for customers andensuring the company stays in business by attempting to contact customers on their past due balances and preventing them from going into further debt. My job is rewarding and I know I am helping others by working at an amazing company.


    Basically? I schedule appointments and collect money from people. But I really do love my job and, mostly, the company.

    I will hopefully be getting my online bakery going soon as well. I have a few more months of testing recipes, but will hopefully be opening a "Store" on etsy.com

    Sheena, that's AWESOME! Dorks unite, lmao! Hahahahaha! I'm only kidding and I'm soooooooooo including myself in that statement, so please don't be offended. Those are awesome perks that you find and get to keep some of the critters rather than fumigating them, lol!

    That's a hard but rewarding route to take, Dexter. My wife is a BSN/RN and it was a lot of hard work but she loves her job...most of the time, lol! What kind of stuff are you planning for your bakery? You know, as a cop, I've sampled some of the finest gourmet pastries around, lmao! Hahahahahaha! Not really, I'm not much of a fan of that stuff, but I'd certainly give your products a try once you get it up and going.

    Today I made Chocolate Mayan Cookies. (chocolate cookies with chocolate chips and a healthy dash of cayenne pepper, they have a very nice kick to them) but its mostly going to be cookies, fudges, pastries (trying pumpkin and white chocolate scones out next weekend), I haven't decided if I'm going to do Cupcakes or not yet, and I might dabble with some candies.

    WOW! Quite the range of items, Dexter! That's waaaaaaaaaaaay over my head, lol! I have trouble mixing a whiskey sour, let alone actually cooking anything besides microwave popcorn, lol! Are you setting up a web-site or word of mouth initially or...you mentioned etsy...not sure what that is so if that's a web-site, asked and already answered, I guess.

    Re: What does every one do for a living?
    I'm going to start a little shop on Etsy to start with, and if I eventually turn a profit I will start up a website. Etsy.com is a site where a massive amount of people sign uo and sell their stuff, artwork, baked goods/sweets just all kinds of stuff.
    http://www.etsy.com/

    I will be looking for testers in the in a couple of months if you want to sign up. I'm thinking of sending a free box of a dozen assorted sweets to some people to try to drum up some business.

    I'll see what I can do on this end for ya', Dexter. I'm diabetic and FAT to boot, LMAO!, but I'll see if I can steer some people your way...

    I hadn't heard of etsy before...goes to show what I know, lol!
