1. What do you do for a living?


I am an admin assistant for the Geology department of a water district. It's not massively interesting, but it's better than my last job (accounting dept.....soooo not my thing)

2. What do you like most about your job?


I like the people, the fact that I'm not overly stressed, and that I don't have to take work home with me.

3. What do you like least about your job?


Sometimes it gets dead, and the ppl gossip WAY too much. I'm already supposedly dating my co-worker cuz we go to lunch all the time. Bleah.

4. When you have a bad day at work it's usually because _____...


I'm just moody. I odn't really have bad days at work. And if I do, it's cuz I'm just having pms. But if I truly have a bad day, it's cuz someone said something to make me mad. lol.

5. What other career(s) are you interested in?


Well, I have a degree in computers, but realized I enjoyed them as a hobby more than a career. This fall, I'm going to go back to school to start my architecture degree. I just hope I love it more than a hobby, because otherwise, I have no idea what I would do. I have WAY too many "other careers" that I'm interested in.


Thanks for the Friday Fives!

1. What do you do for a living?
Montessori school teacher for 3-6 yr olds- though I'm trained to teach up to 12 yr olds, plus special ed! I love the little ones though ;-)

2. What do you like most about your job?
Gathering up my funny stories from the kids- the most recent one is that they are concerned I don't have a dh (as am I at this stage, lol) and one of them thought that setting me up with her dad's dad would work! I told her that I didn't want an old man for a husband, that I'd rather have a good looking young man.....guess it's all in their hands now!

3. What do you like least about your job?
I guess that would be the bs that happens at every job!

4. When you have a bad day at work it's usually because _____...
usually it's because I'm in a bad mood- but I'll often find another excuse for it being bad, like one of the kids 'acting up'- which can also make for a REALLY bad day!

5. What other career(s) are you interested in?
When I was younger I wanted to be a stewardess- all that cheap travel appealed to me! Other than that...I guess I've found my calling, lol!

No Miranda it is not a mid life anything it is just a I HATE MY JOB RIGHT NOW kind of time. LOL It is difficult to deal with people and the longer you have to put up with bull the harder it is to handle. I hear you girl. I used to have a career and when we paid the mortgage on our house I said "bye bye little old career, this mama is staying home and finding a job that has no stress." Hard to believe after about 7 tries I found something!!!

Keep your head up high girl and tell those snobs to PISS OFFFFFFF... LOL

1. What do you do for a living?

I'm an attorney. I represent clients in Social Security disability cases at the administrative and appellate levels.

2. What do you like most about your job?

My job is very rewarding to help disabled individuals who are unable to work and often have no source of income other than welfare. A lot of my clients are Spanish speaking clients. I'm able to use my Spanish skills on a daily basis. I love the firm I work for. The partners have a lot of intergrity and are well respected in their fields. They care a lot about the quality of the work we do and are interested in more than just the bottom line. They also allowed me to cut back to working three days after I had my daughter, although they've recently asked me to come back full time. I declined, so I'm not sure how much longer they'll keep me as part time.

3. What do you like least about your job?

Not being at home with my two and a half year old. I don't like the commute - an hour door to door. Getting home at 7pm some nights.

4. When you have a bad day at work it's usually because _____...

I have a hearing before a particular judge who is evil and unjust; difficult or uncooperative clients; I just can't see over the pile of files on my desk.

5. What other career(s) are you interested in? Stay at home mom.
