Since I found some fellow accountants in the SN thread, I was wondering what everyone else does for a living?

Former quant analyst/consultant, now I manage a gaggle of kids and animals. We have some side businesses but I don’t have an active part in that thankfully.

KissMeImScottish · October 2018

I’ve been a stay at home parent for 5 years (combination of military lifestyle making it hard to hold a career thanks to moves and the fact that daycare for 3 under 3 costs more than I would make to make it worth it), but I have a degree In anthropology and am currently working part time as an instructor for an art studio. I hope to teach high school history after all our kids hit kindergarten age.

meatballs37 · October 2018

whitney812 · October 2018

I own two businesses..

I’ve had my dessert co. for six years now. We do wholesale to coffee shops, catering, and I sell caramel sauces to shops all over WA. We are going to be featured in the holiday issue of Taste of Home this year and I’m pumped!

my second business I just started weeks ago. I design kids shirts and will be launching adult shirts in a few weeks.

The company who prints my caramel sauce labels also prints my shirts, It’s fun doing two totally different things. 😜

spacepiraterunner · October 2018

@jhems776 that's what MH does! I'm frequently jealous of his work environment, which sounds pretty similar to yours.

Erin1510 · October 2018

I’m an elementary Special Education teacher, currently a Resource Room teacher for academic support. Previously I’ve worked in Behavior Intervention classrooms (4 years of that)

I started my teaching career as a high school Biology teacher for the first 5 years. Made the switch to SpEd after it was hard to find employment due to moving so often when my husband was active duty in the Marine Corps. Getting my MS in SpEd opened a lot of doors for me and I never looked back to the general education setting.

antera23 · October 2018

@whitney812 how cool! I think you are amazing for having two businesses! I’m going to have to look for that issue of Taste of Home. I love that magazine. Congratulations!!!

kjr9519 · October 2018

I work from home as a billing specialist for a home care company my mom owns. I love being able to help the family business grow (it’s a pretty new one) and I love the flexibility.

ravenclaw415 · October 2018

I am a high school chemistry teacher!

tuxielove93 · October 2018

I wear a lot of hats. I've been a freelance model for 4 years, but didnt do much while pregnant the first time. I've been doing it again regularly since July to hold us over until I got a better job/couldnt do it due to pregnancy. So now that we have a LO on board, I'm picking up a newspaper route to fill the weekend gap, as well as currently taking a transcription test to start doing that from home. I also have an account on Rover, but haven't gotten any hits there yet. And I'm home with DS whenever I'm not working out of the house, which is most of the time. DH is with him when I have to work without DS tagging along, but DH works 9-5 plus wonky overtime, so scheduling can be chaotic.

marijaa333 · October 2018

I work in impact investing internationally. We help countries set up institutions that make impact investing possible and actually impactful. My favorite part is seeing the recipients of the funds - the common denominator is positive social, environmental or community impact. I feel very good about what I do but I travel a lot long-haul and will have to re-examine that setup to spend more time with the kid(s).
