Well, I have a degree in business and accounting, and a more recent degree in science. My passion is biology, but isn't my career. I am a financial advisor and as well, am also qualified to be a realtor.

I work at a publishing company making photo directories. Like student facebooks or hospital directories.

Boring, huh!

My first job, way back in the 80's, was in a fish store, and I've been keeping fish ever since...

Manufacturing Engineering- I put out fires by solving production problems and making the product better and cheaper by figuring out how to build it faster and more reliable. I do this by evaluating some of the returns and listening to those who know the product best. That would be those who build them day in and day out.

RIght now, I'm an "employment researcher" (as in, looking for a job! ha ha!) I have an interview in the morning (and I should probly get to bed soon!), though it'll be my third this month. Kinda gettin' discouraged >_<

I want to be a mix of what Chrisinha is... a vet-shrink! Well, "animal behaviorist", really. That's more my dream job, though. And even better, would be getting a ranch, and doing wildlife rehabilitation!
I was goin' to school... and will go back, when I get tuition money saved up again... to be a webpage designer, because that's my other hobby besides animals

Lydia - anyone working by age 14 deserves a bow.

I started my work career at 15 as a dishwasher then onto a salad chef, then continued on...
Most states dont allow you to work unless you are 15 and then with limited work hours unless you recieve a work certificate or something.

sadly, i know this answer. george just makes up the name first for himself and alos made up that occupation. then he kept using the name for everything else. like the latex company, and the importer exporter.

It use to come on right when i got home from school, and so that was what i watched as a kid without satelite or cable.
