If you really wanted to pick a career what would it be?
What would excited you? Maybe you already have thought about it?
Maybe you seen it on TV, and thought HEY I would LOVE to do that!

Some of us may already be working towards it, or even living it.
 
I wanted to be professional accountant but I did recieve accounting most the time. I used work at Zion National Bank for 5 years I managed about 100 diffrent company's accounting daily. I hated my job so much because too stressful.

I don't know what I want to be.
 
I'm ok with my job I guess. Think I've told y'all about it before. Anyways, I'm moving up in management. I actually thought about taking some part-time college and get a degree in accounting. Or maybe better myself in Bussiness Management:)
 
Not happy with my previous job.

Hopefully I could do all threes...plan to take these classes in college.

- computer
- theatre
- photographer
 
I loved my old job, I was teaching ASl at university for 7 yrs. They let me go bec I dont have MA degree in deaf education. sigh

Now I want go back to school and study to be radiology. I kept getting xray when I grew up and was watching them doing the job. I said to myself Oh thats easy job. Less communication and less do the paperwork.
 
Well, I REALLY haven't decide yet. I thought of going to NITD and get AAS degree in shoot I forgot how to spell it...you make eye lenses like at Lens crafters etc. OR become a crime invesgtaior like on CSI. I don't know. I know being "CSI" is a stressful job. I used want to be Xray tech. Really it is all mixed in my mind! :giggle:
 
That's what I wanted for a long time..ummm now they using computer for Xray. AMAZING! :)

I started relatively young as a counselor at the school for the deaf here in Riverside and worked the last 18 years as a supervisor for a total of 36 years and retired last February at the young age of 62! I still get calls to come in and assist and I gladly go because the school was good to me for soooo long and I liked my job and the extra money doesn't hurt, lol.

wow.. Thats long time.. Keep it going! smile!!
 
Oh yeah...really I don't 'get' how they can tell during the ultrasound and sonogram.

Right now mostly they are using digital instead of old fashioned way.. :) They are changing slowly, I guess expensive to change.

Wow. :eek3: I thought you are young. Opps! :giggle:
 
I am still working at OVR in Eastern PA, but I plan to move to NJ sometime the end of this year.
 
I love my job but pay sucks.

Social services sucks when it comes to pay but you always get rewarded by smiles, hugs, gratitude, etc. Just that I wish my pay could allow me to take fancy trips and shop at upscale stores :giggle:

I know I was born to be in Social Services - it is all I have done since young age. But now I would love to be an university professor in either European History or Sociology!
 
I start quit graphic arts career in two years ago. Study trader online over two years and contiune.
 
I have always wanted to be a teacher. All my life, I was always taking care of kids younger than me or trying to help other kids understand what was happening (I was usually the only one that could read lips and speak in my "crowd" of friends.). In high school, I thought about becoming a counselor instead, but after graduation and starting at the community college here, I decided to stick with "teacher". I worked at a Christian pre-school for deaf, HOH, and CODAs part time and I ended up quitting college to teach full time. I eventually went to the tech college here and got my CDAs (Child Development Assoicate) in 2 levels and was the first deaf person to ever recieve CDAs. Anyway, I worked until I got pregnant with my 3rd child (9 years at this school!) and decided to become a SAHM (Stay At Home Mama). I still sub at the pre school since my boys go there. I hope to return full time after all of my kids are in public school... about 2 more years.
