I work as a Sr. Accountant full-time (although right now I am on light duty due to preterm labor, so I'm limited to 4 hours per day in the office and the remainder at home). I am also a half-time student (6 credits per semester), taking online classes for my Bachelor's in Accounting, minor in Business. I will probably be done by 2015 at the rate I'm going.

Right now, doing local PR for a national non-profit. In two weeks, though I'll start a new job (same organization) running national social media for one of our brands.
I'm a veterinarian with a relatively new solo practice.
I'm envious. If i could do life over again, I would choose to work with animals.
Thanks. In general, I love my job and I know if I hadn't gone this route, I'd always have regretted it. However, if *I* could do things over, I'd be a nurse.
I'm an Administrative Assistant for Sargento Foods(the cheese company) and a full-time online student working toward my BS in Communication Studies with no idea what I will do with my degree.

SAHW soon SAHM... I feel like I am a rock on the bottom of the sea now seeing all of you have such awesome jobs/ambition.
I do volunteer work with a local animal rescue when I can though.
You shouldn't feel rock bottom. Be proud if your choice!
Lawyer - specializing in medical malpractice defense.
It's awesome being pregnant and having cases involving injury during delivery.
I hear ya! I was a paralegal/paralegal manager for over 10 years in products liability. I did a lot of pharmaceutical defense involving pregnancy, post-partum, and "bad baby" cases. One of the lawyers on a case I worked on regarding autism suggested that I better start having kids before I get too old (since we regularly met with experts on autism who specifically research advanced maternal age as a co-factor). It put a spark under my butt to get going already.
I'm in middle management at a consulting firm now.
I am a SAHW...soon to be SAHM once baby comes. I use to work for an insurance company and handled medical claims until my company moved out of the state and I was layed of. It ended up working as I found out I was pregnant at the same time and we always intended for me to be SAHM, so now I just help take care of my grandfather in-law, which is great.
also work a few hours as a behavioral consultant for kids with autism, and tutor for kids with dyslexia, but that has been phased back. After LO arrives it will just be the day job. Hoping to find part time work, but that would require giving up my tenure and that is scary.
I'm a daycare teacher in the infant room at a small daycare. I'll be a SAHM once LO arrives, though. I stayed at home with DS for the first 2 years as well, and hope to do the same with DD.
I'm about 7 classes away from getting my associates degree as a teacher's aide, so I hope to go back to school part time in the next year or so (online or at night) to finish that, although I probably won't pursue a job in the field until both kids are in school. We'll see.
Right now I work part time as a CNA and part time as a quality control director for a marketing company that I do from home. Ive been going to school, but not this semester since I've gotten all my classes done and now I'm waiting to get into the nursing program! Ultimately I'll get my BSN and work as an RN
I am an Industrial Hygienist for the City of New York Environmental Protection Bureau of Water Supply. Once Evelyn gets here I am taking an extended leave of absence (about 15 months)
Re: What Does Everyone Do?
I'm totally trying to get into the same program in April!
I totally read that as "manly government contract work"
SAHM and nursing student on a break from school til I start clinicals in Sept 2014
