    I was just wondering out of curiosity if and where you all work?


    I work two jobs both stores in the biggest mall here. The stores I work at are called Town Shoes and City Jewellers.

    Right now, I work at a front desk of a hotel, mostly to get cash to buy xmas presents and to travel. I will likely be getting a teaching assistantship either this semester or next semester also. I am a Master's student in criminology, who needs to get her thesis done by the spring to I can apply to PhD programs.


    I also volunteer for two organizations, one that supports and advocates on behalf a group of men serving life sentences in a prison in Kingston, and another that supports sex offenders when they are returned to the community.


    What mall in the 'Peg do you work at? I am curious, visited a few while I was there.


    And Town Shoes rocks!

    Believe it or not, I work as a server in a RESTAURANT--the #1 anxiety-inducing place for emets! And I love it! Though I'm introverted by nature, I come to life at work and become very people-oriented. Weird. Who knew an introvert could be so good at being a server? I'm looking for the same type of work when I move at the end of this month.

    I own and solely operate aa Paralegal service out of my home office. I just took an exam to become a Certified Legal Document Preparer, so that I won't have to subcontract out to work under the direction of attorneys. CLDP's can prepare, file and serve Legal documents without an attorney's signature. My goal is to open a small office and hire one paralegal to work there for me. :-) Edited by: californiagirl

    I deliver newspapers. I like it because I get to work by myself, and my kids come with me to work. They sleep right through it.

    I work in a call centre for car insurance. I do three 12 hour shifts a week. It's kinda hard going but I need to do it until I have enough money to study. What I want to do is have a career in animal care.
    Be courageous, believe in yourself, and be the best woman you can be. I'm with you all the way.

    I am also in a job where my emet. is always on the surface. I teach pre-
    school to children with special needs. This is my first year. I was a
    second grade teacher for 12 years prior to this. I love this job. My emet
    seems to be good, though, because I have 2-3 assistants in my room at
    ALL times. The first day of school, I announced..."Who does v* because I
    sure don't! " Luckily, one of the women assured me that I would never
    have to worry because she can handle it just fine. Thank God!!!!!

    I work in a welfare to work program for women, I assist them in finding employment. Its a good job and I really like it most of the time!! The emet definately does come up as there are lots of children.
    We have got to be able to laugh at ourselves about this!!
