Dang, most of you guys seem to be in your career already. I'm just a cashier kid at my friend's restuarant, pay is not the best but its enough to buy me a S and pay for college =]. Pretty chill job when its not busy, I spend about 50% of my work time on s2ki. Best thing is getting free food... but its getting very gross after eating off the same menu for over 2 years lol

My job has its good days and its bad days. I love the job hate the career. Usually everything is ok and the job is laid back, but when it goes bad, it goes bad quickly and could get scary. The days of gorgeous Flight Attendants are gone, the super duper high payscales are gone, but the guys I fly with are great, and the overnights can sometimes be a blast, sometimes its kinda lonely and seems to be thankless job but when all is said an done, climbing over a cloud layer to see the sunset/sunrise is pretty awesome

any airline, from Mexicana to Emriates, all of their F/A are sexy, or at the very least Attractive, only in America will the ACLU allow fat, sloppy, ugly as sin Flight Attendants

Mine is a bit too easy.
Love the career--Mechanical/Aerospace Engineer--but hate this current job for that very reason. It's just not challenging enough. I'm working as a composite engineer at a company that does government contracts for the Air Force. Unfortunately, we waste a lot of their money (at their discretion) because the particular office has a larger budget than it should and they want to buy stuff that's "cooler" when it's completely unnecessary.
I'm starting on my MS right now though so at least my time isn't completely wasted.

I had a job that was easy for me and provided great income: procurement and supply chain consulting. I quit and moved to California with my better half. Now I work in the jewelry business. It's a lot of fun and the money is decent but it's not a career for me. I have my B.A. but I'm going back to school to get my Paralegal Certification, since it's a field I've always wanted to get into. My career path has been quite the anomaly.

I do engineering-side IT for an IT company. This is what you do when you have a Music Degree.
. . . on the other hand, thanks to flex hours, I still play professionally 20-30 nights a year, and am conducting an opera in January.
