In college we all thought we could just swirl and sniff, telling somebody else what to do. I learned fast... I do that (swirl and sniff), plus personnel management, production management, public relations (the dog and pony show) recordkeeping and data entry, government compliance, grape contract management, oversee vineyard operations, drive a forklift, plumbing, electrical work, purchasing, chief cook and bottlewasher...

Now why would you EVER suspect such a thing?? I don't understand how you could possibly think that??

To our Queen, working on her PC means Post Count

for the record, I count beans while posting during business hours.

One major disadvantage of my job is that while I spend most of the day on my PC it is definitely not spent posting here.

Large companies have lots of rules. There are pages of documentation on what constitutes "abuse of the internet" during work hours.

Having been there for more years than I care to count (28? 29?) I know all about rules.....

Lets see here

Endless Dreamer of being a owner of my own resturant ( DONATIONS ARE ACCEPTED TO MAKE THIS DREAM COME TRUE)

I am a Pier 1 Imports store manager.

Inside sales support staff for a manufacturers rep agency

In other words, I sit at a desk, talk on the phone, answer
questions and take orders... about toilets.....

Hey, somebody's got to sell that stuff!

I write and perform songs,for hundreds of thousands of PHEOPLE every summer

Did I get anyone on that?Probably not....lol!I work in asphalt,I do asphalt design,and quality control,for a large contractor in Metro Atl.!

I think most people already know...but I own a catering business....have very upscale clients who live in huge, beautiful homes...and most of them are my age...makes me ask sometimes..."what did I do wrong??"
No, seriously..I am the luckiest person alive..I have a great life, great husband and kids and I LOVE what I do!

Kitty. . I ask myself the same question!!!
And for those that don't know. . Kitty is an awesome caterer!!

It's hard to explain what I do. . but basically I spend more time in a hotel room than my own home!

My husband and I own a real estate company that specializes in remote/semi-remote resort properties.

daddymention... I would love your job..... well being surrounded with the merchanise anyway!!

I'm an Athletic Trainer (different from a personal trainer, I work to prevent injuries through conditioning and education as well as rehabilitation of injuries) at a college in northern georgia and I teach classes at the college as well. Lots of hours on the sidelines as well as in the classroom but very rewarding.

I'm a journalist -- but I haven't really got my start yet. Recieved a degree in News Editorial Journalism last fall, worked in a public relations office at WVU for 7 months and now I'm working PT for Morgantown's recreation non-profit doing publicity, photos, etc.

Can anyone find Melli a good job?

Karin, be careful how you say that...someone might get a BAAAAD idea!!!! (and yes, Kitty IS an awesome cook!)

I'm a Third Party Purchaser for a huge global distributor of products for chemical companies, biomedical research, lifesciences, etc. We have a really big catalog for selling directly to our customers, but my division is considered "procurement". Only certain customers (really big, think Dupont, BristolMyers, etc) can also be Third Party customers. I receive the orders via computer, and in turn place them with our suppliers. It's actually more interesting than it sounds. I've seen some truly bizarre (or scary) products ordered - the most memorable one being 5-gallon tubs of "artificial stool" in varying consistencies. Never found out what its intended use was.

I've been there for about 3 1/2 years, but I've only been doing this since June. Prior to that, it was accts payable, same department. I really like what I do - it's challenging, and there's minimal customer contact *thank goodness*.

I am a Marketing Specialist for SUBWAY World Headquarters, here in Connecticut.

I let you know about those great tasting, low-fat sandwiches, available at your nearest Subway restaurant (just doin' my job )

I get to work on and around Space Station and Shuttle flight hardware in Florida. I know JB is a fan of the Space Program so it has its distance connections. Best part is, I live on the beach and it is warm most of the year. Lets me surf, boat and fish when time permits and it's only a few hours to the Keys!!!
