Here in the USA, it’s Labor Day. We’d like to wish each and every one of you a lovely, happy Labor Day.
In celebration of the day, we’d also like to do a Labor Day Roll Call.
During the week, are you . . .
a butcher?
a baker?
a candlestick maker?
Or do you do something else?
Join us for a Labor Day Roll Call!
P.S. Look for a big announcement later this week! (Oh yes, we’re FULL of surprises!!!)

Right now I’m unemployed but when people ask me what I do I tell them I’m a writer even though I’m not published yet.

You don’t have to be published to be a writer, aida!

For many years I was a horticulturalist. Right now, I’m questioning what I am. Deep down I know what is in me, but until I hear a couple of magic words I will simply say I’m a “wanna be” writer!

I have at various times of my life been a babysitter, nanny, housekeeper, ultrasonic cutter,ranch cook, caterer, waitress (bad one), in-store model, salesclerk, cashier,parts runner, and bookstore operator. Other than that I have pretty much sat back and let people wait on me.

Although I thought I was retired, I’m now a full time babysitter as DD#2 has two jobs. I also write reviews that I thoroughly enjoy doing. Y’all sure are full of surprises lately!

I’m retired now, but during my working career I spent 23 years working in various positions at Michigan Bell Telephone. Over the years, I’ve worked as a secretary in an elementary school, school administration and finally high school…all for the same school district. I’ve spent about 8 years working as a grocery store cashier (before scanners). Since I’ve been in NC, I worked as office manager in a small, family owned business. Now, I kick back, with everyday a Sunday and read, play on my computer or watching Netflix films!

It is really cool to read about you guys, and what you do.
I am a mother, wife, teacher, and writer (not always in that order, life being what it is.)
Posted on September 3, 2012 at 1:03 pm.
I’m an accountant. Not the most exciting job, but at least there’s plenty of demand so I’m never out of work.

Posted on September 3, 2012 at 1:16 pm.

It’s so cool to see what everyone has done/is doing! Some of these I’d guessed, but some are a surprise!
I’ve been a college prof (five years), a Director of Student Activities as a college in GA (seven years), and I’m now a writer (twelve years). That about sums up my work experiences.
Next?

I was a hospice chaplain specializing in grief support but alas I am now unemployed. It was an amazing job, not fun per se, but it was an honor to support others in their grief.

I do believe all the ideas you’ve presented on your post. They’re very convincing and can certainly work. Still, the posts are too brief for novices. May just you please lengthen them a little from next time? Thanks for the post.

Thanks!
