I think my username says it all! I have been a Hairstylist for the past 23 years and own my own salon.

I work at an ad agency. I just started, but my degree is in marketing and it has always been my dream to work in an agency. So I am very excited about it. I also have insurance now so I plan to see a theripist and get this anxiety under control.

I work at an insurance agency. I sell personal insurance. I also am the Network Administrator for the agency. Having two positions in one company has been cause for some anxious moments. When I'm working on computers my boss tells me to not let my insurance work get behind. Then when I'm working on my insurance work she tells me not to let my computer work get behind. I have been looking for a new job for the last couple of months. However the economy in Michigan bites! So, it's been slow going.

I am a property rehabilitation and low income housing specialist for a large apartment management firm. I love it! The stress is high but the rewards are worth every stressful moment. I am studying to be able to work on community redevelopment projects for cities. I think that would be so fun.

I'm a library technician at a community college in Cupertino, CA. I supervise the student employees we have at the circulation desk, and I process and maintain the academic reserves collection (stuff instructors bring in to have available for the students in their classes). I also deal with patrons at the front desk. I'm also in grad school, trying to get a Master's in Library and Information science. I just started working full time over the summer (it's been about 6 months), and feel that it has added a lot of stress to my already packed life. I love libraries and books, but feel like I'm losing steam at school. I was actually doing really well with the anxiety until just recently; depression has been a big part of my life for about the past month. Not sure if it has anything to do with my job or not.

Two jobs. I'm an Activities Assistant at a local nursing home. Just started doing that a few months ago, but LOVE IT!!! I also am a seamstress and own my own business--been doing that for 17 years. Also am a divorced mom of three.

Lots of interesting jobs in these posts. Take care, everybody.

Hi Bookworm,
would that be De Anza College? I went there to become a nurse before I got married 13 years ago. I am now a stay at home mom, who homeschools our 2 children!
