I am a SAHM but I also work PT for a local bank as a teller. I was an executive teller pre-DD (more responsibilities and better pay). I pretty much pay for DD's preschool with the money I make, but it gets me out of the house a couple of days a week and still networked with the company I love so much. I hope to move up once this LO is in preschool.
I actually went to school for mortuary science after I graduated from college. I absolutely loved doing that, but now with a child, I don't think I could keep doing it. Those were obviously the hardest cases.
I am a mental health therapist. I work with very difficult clients and specialize in DBT, a therapy for individuals with borderline personality disorder. I love my job but the stress can definitely get to me every once in awhile.
I am a CPA and currently the Director of Accounting at a winery and during tax season I work part time for a tax accountant, in addition to my normal job. This tax season should be interesting. I have a feeling I won't be able to work as much as normal.

@LMT423 - I couldn't help but wonder if you were joking or serious since you just thew it out there so matter-of-fact . Please don't take offense, if you're serious that's pretty awesome! Way more interesting than any job I've ever had.
Since I had DD, I work mostly from home managing a department in finance/risk while being a SAHM. Work has gotten more demanding, and juggling both responsibilities has become more and more difficult. Not sure how much longer I can keep it up, but it was a good run.
I'm an Associate Director for Student Activities at a University. I love my job and coworkers, but college students can be just as demanding and helpless as elementary kids
I am a high school Anatomy & Physiology instructor and work with gifted students from 15 different high schools. In my spare time I am also a PhD student and have 1.5 years to go!
I'm a SAHM now but I used to be a bank examiner. I loved the job when I was single because I was always traveling and going to new banks but once I got married and had our first baby it was devastating to be gone. I'm so grateful to get to stay home with our girls
I'm a former elementary school teacher, but I'll always be a teacher at heart. I resigned last year to work from home running our business so that I could be home more with my two kids.
I'm a licensed social worker, functioning as a program manager of a nonprofit organization. I love my job and can't imagine being anywhere else.

I have my bachelors in Criminal Justice though haven't yet found a job in that field. It's been 8 years so I probably won't lol. So in the meantime I am an assistant manager at a gas station, who also handles some of the bookkeeping. On the side I am a special fx makeup artist, dealing in prosthetics and all things Halloween.
Im a maternity & newborn photographer. And no I won't be doing my own pictures. lol. If any of the bloggers want to message me so I can pick your brain I would be so happy :-c
I work for the county as a mental health caseworker. I work with adults that have a serious mental illness.. I pray everyday for a peaceful, calm, boring day but it hasn't happened yet. I am grateful for awesome coworkers, paid holidays and great benefits!
So many of us in the mental health field! I'm a child psychologist, now working full time in private practice. Works out great as I make my schedule, so it can be quite flexible. I absolutely love my job, but have been finding it difficult these last few weeks from feeling so tired all the time!
I am a high school English teacher and advisor for yearbook and newspaper at a private Catholic school. I honestly love my job most days. Sometimes in my spare time I take pictures of individuals and families too.

I'm a zookeeper. I work with the African savanna animals: giraffes, ostriches, zebras, antelope, as well as australian critters: koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, emu.
I work in HR for a hospital. My main responsibility is benefits, but I do a little of everything. I absolutely love HR, but I have a tendency to never say no to anything, so I take too much on. I'm planning on scaling back now that I have an assistant.
I'm a cardiac sonographer. I work in a hospital setting and once a week at a Pediatric Cardiologist office. I'm an adult and pediatric tech. I love what I do.☺
I'm a "Freelance Culinarian": I mainly do recipe testing, editing and development for food brands and cookbook publishers, but I also teach cooking classes occasionally. It's great because I can work from home with a flexible schedule and be with my daughter a lot!
I am a Flight Attendant and a FA training instructor. Glad to be mostly training for the pregnancy but worried about the long training hours. Mostly 10-13 hour days - 5- 6 days a week.
I'm a SAHM and I manage a rental home. DH and I are in the process of starting an RV Resort. We currently have all the blueprints done and awaiting the last of our permits and then it's development time.
