What does everyone do for a living?

Just curious....Would like to know what everyone does during the day...or night. Also wondering if everyone is like me and rushes home to see my fish everyday haha.

So you shoot the question but you don't provide your answer first... what does MPrudent does for a living? expect you reply soon.

My answer: I'm a clinical psychologist, 100% private practice. I have the privilege to be invited into the private lives of mostly wonderful persons who enrich my life and pay me to do so. I deal mostly with severe psychiatric (e.g. eating disorders) and/or hard-core personality disorders (e.g. borderline personality disorder) that make these persons life very difficult. The few ones who are not so nice (e.g. antisocial-psychopaths) I don't keep seeing. My sub-specialties are: clinical and neuropsychological assessment mostly for proper diagnosis, crisis management, and psychoterapy.

I didn't even think to include that haha....I am in real estate. I deal with mainly foreclosed homes. I was in the mortgage business for years but found the real estate side to be more rewarding.

Im a special education teacher by trade: I have a graduate degree from Stanford in developmental psychology, though I have worked with only children for most of my career.

I currently stay at home with my two small children - I own a small home business evaluating and referring at risk and special needs children to the appropriate schools and services offered in CA. My husband works at Apple Computer.

Most times I have been able to stay at home with my kids but now they are all grown up and out of the house, Im looking forward to getting back to work, plus it will help my hubby pay the bills.

I am a Food Scientist. Right now I am unemployed thanks to the tanking economy, but I specialize in Research and Development of new foods and beverages. Next time you drink a certain national brand of ready-to-drink Latte, think of me (I cant name names, for privacy reasons). Ive also worked for Colonel Sanders in the corporate office doing some quality assurance work.

The new year look promising for a good more reliable job.
