Occupations

[Amy]

So what are your occupations?:p

I know a few of us are students and some unimployed, but also what do you spend most of your time doing?

I'm a student. And like eating, sleeping, looking after Billy and Lily, horse riding and going on Talk Budgies the most!:D

[Dave]

I'm actually a student as well. During the school year I work on my websites (this site and Talk Camp (http://www.talkcamp.com)). As you can figure out by going to my other site, I'm a camp counselor during the summer. I love that job, but the pay sucks and it's only during the summer. :( Oh well.

[Amy]

Wow there is 219 members on your other site! Lets hope thats where we begin to go!

I might be starting a site soon, but I can't decide what to do it about!

I am a pre-vet student but when I am not going to school I work as a veterinary technician in an animal hospital. I spend alot of time with friends and my pets when I have spare time.

[Budgiekin]

I'm a teacher for grades Kindergarten to Grade 8, but I am currently working as an eLearning specialist for the public school board here in Canada. Essentially that means I give training and technical support to staff (like teachers and office administrators in the schools) who want to teach or learn about using online courses. It's a new job for me as I only started it on the 1st of February, but I am liking it so far.

My ambition is to be a vet, like blueberrybuns!

Sorry to hear that. Good luck with your pet store! Should be fun. :)

[Debby]

I am sorry to hear that. It amazes me how some employers can be so rude to such hard working and valuable employees. You did the right thing and I am sure something MUCH better will come along!:D

[Amy]

Yes, I hope you get another job soon, really I do.:)

[erin]

I am a student to. I love playing with my budgie and lazing around.

[Amy]

How many students are there on this site?!?!

[Budgiekin]

It seems like there are quite a few students on this site! After 5 years of post-secondary education, I have had my fill of school for a while I think!

[Amy]

Poor you, I should think you've have enough of us students!

[Shiney_things]

Im a student in high school... GCSE's soon! ARGH! i plan on working as a radiographer after university though and then breeding/taming parrots and budgies in either america canada or austrailia. England is boring. I need a change...

[Amy]

I'm want to be a horse vet after I've trained. :) I love helping animals! If I ever get a horse it will be one I will rehome.

[Budgiekin]

I could never have enough of students! I'd be in trouble if I did given that I'm a teacher!;)

[Amy]

Yeah! You'd be sacked if your employer came on here and saw!

[Dave]

As long as you behave, you don't share your personal info, or do anything stupid then we'll keep this a secret. So far you've been fine; I didn't even begin to think about your age because you've been very mature around here. So just keep up the good work and you'll be fine. :)

[Mechele'sBJ&PJ]

Well I am a custodian at a Middle school

I love gardening, playing w/ my cats, dogs, and of course my Budgies :)

[Rie]

I am a foreman for a landscape construction co. it's great, i get to work outside all day and see great results all the time. i couldn't ever work in an office, i'd be climbing up and down the walls like my bird gus does on his cage by the time i get home.

[Mistyoriline]

I am a work at home mom...I do book keeping for a construction company...I love to come here on my spare time and love pogo.com too.

[bluebird]

well im a head cook in our local school,the funny thing is tho i hate cooking :D but i love the people i work with & i get to have the same holidays as the kids :D

[Kaytee]

I'm a secretary for the Adult Probation and Parole Office...... we have over 1000 clients that we supervise. Sometimes it is like a zoo here with the phones ringing and clients checking in to see their officers. I like my job though......never a dull moment! hahah!

When I am home I stay busy with my birds and dogs.... I also love to go shopping for me and for my babies..... I love watching westerns on T.V. and other shows too. I love reading murder mysteries but when my birds are out of the cages....they tend to keep me from doing that! LOL They love to start tearing the pages! Right now it is spring here and lots of new flowers are coming in.... this is the time of year I love to work in my flower gardens.

[Amy]

Ooh nice jobs!

[ETAHoffman]

I work for a major airline. I've been in the "Travel Industry" for almost 40 years now. Started in New Orleans. Moved to Houston. Then Alexandria, Va. Finally settled, hopefully for good, in Miami. I love to travel and do so as often as I can. My wife and I especially love to travel in South America. Argentina rules!!! :-)

[Amy]

Lol, my Dad is an aircraft refueller!
