What's your occupation?

Recommended Posts

I work at the local college. Teach sign language to hearing students, which they think is going to be an easy foreign language credit :S I'm also an interpreter for deaf students at the same college.
The college is currently on a quarter system, which means I work ten weeks, then two weeks off. Not to mention the summer and holidays off.

Currently feeding my skydiving habit with tips from waitressing and the loans which help me survive med school. It's funny, the things that are suddenly not imperative to own or purchase when on limited funds. Like food....who needs it? :P

"I assess risk for a living, so I try not to do anything dangerous."

That line is in the commercials for the movie Along came Polly, but it sums me up. Well, cept for the dangerous part. I'm a system safety engineer for a helicopter company. My coworkers find something very ironic about the fact that I skydive, but I just explain that the fact that I keep surviving must make me a safety expert. :P

I've heard that the question,"so what do you do for a living?" is solely an American thing. If this is true, as an American, this is what I am ashamed of most.



Would be kind of funny if it's really true. Dunno what else you'd use as a conversation starter though:

"Hey, you have brown hair."
"Yep. Brown hair all right. Got it from my mom."
"Really? Wow. Where did she get her brown hair from?"
"Uh, her parents...??"

Same here. This repost and Ivan crap is getting frickin old.

As for me, my fulltime job is office manger for a social service agency. I also have a parttime job a few nights a week as a grocery store cashier.
