Re: Please tell us about your profession!
Good luck on all of you selling houses and I hope some of it turns our way too. We've had a house in Georgia (golf course, pond) for sale for over a year. We bought in The Villages anyway so if I have to be in poverty this is a great place to suffer LOL.
Jobs....I might win the most varied collection.....Truck driver in the 60's. Yep, a 16 wheeler and a female was a very rare sight (I actually packed the boxes for a moving and sotrage company but on the interstates I drove too). Then a stewardess for 21 years. The choice of words in intentional because I loved the "sex symbol" image LOL. Eastern Airlines went bankrupt and all of a sudden I went from "sex symbol" to "older displaced worker". That is the tag the U.S. Government gave to all over 40 folks....I sure hope that it wasn't their idea of a motivating slogan. So I had to answer the question "what are you going to do when you grow up?" Most females of that age group thought they had to be nurses or teachers so I went for the nurse degree. During nursing I found what I loved....cattle ranching...and I was good at it. I had 100% live birth to weaning in the last 5 years of doing it. A broken arm with nerve damage forced to me quit that. So here I am nursing at TVRH (I agree the pay is not great but I disagree on it being a good place to work, 20 hours a week with health care benefits can make me very forgiving of any issues....growing pains can make for a few bumps in the road). I don't know what my next avocation will be!?!?!?!?!
