  I am a bid coordinator for a construction company. Which means I basically get paid to hang out on Facebook and Pinterest all day. I am going back 1-3 days a week depending on what projects we have going on. I am going back to school to become a nurse though. I would love to work as a labor/delivery nurse.

  In the words of Romy and Michelle: What GREAT jobs! (I'm on mobile or I'd GIF it)
  
  I work for a large scrap metal recycling company. I'm the sole person in my office and am in charge of paying 200-300+ customers a day(cash, counted by hand), weighing trucks, handling all paperwork for inbound and outbound loads (anywhere from pickups to semi loads if material), customer service, office management B.S. (time cards, raises, write ups,etc) and anything else they can think if piling on me. I'm supposed to make popcorn for customers everyday also, but, ain't nobody got time for that!

  I was a full time SAHM for 8 years and coached gymnastics on the side. Once we moved closer to family 3 years ago I decided to open my own gym. We are now expanding from a very small program to building our own 11,000 square foot building! We signed on our construction loan 3 days after LO was born. The best part is that although I am working more than full time now I can do it with LO in tow. It is the best of both worlds for me!

  I have my bachelor degree in criminal justice but decided to start my family over a career. Right now I am a server at bob Evans on the weekends for extra cash while my husband works during the week. Its nice not to need daycare and its also nice to get out of the house and be around adults a few days a week!

  Up until this munchkin, I was a barista for money, working toward a languages degree to make my family happy.

  I moved to the US while pregnant and started doing transcription and proofreading from home for pocket money (the OH works to pay the bills) but thanks to really supportive in-laws, I'm looking to follow my actual life-long dream of training to become a motorcycle/small engine mechanic.
