After a career path halted abruptly, Ive set sail in a new direction. I will be training 2 be a primary school teacher next year, teaching 7-11 year olds. Im currently doing temporary office/administration jobs which R usually about Xciting as watching paint dry! The sooner I get out of this groove the better!

I'm a writer and I'm forever grateful people want to give me money for cleansing my soul through this underrated artform.

I do photography...I love what I do, I just desire to expand on it, and will be doing so in concrete ways this month. If I could spend the rest of my life being a photographer, I would die happy...nod

I'm a photograpaher. I've been doing it for 14 years now and have had my own studio for 8 years.
I do love what I do...you get the odd shitty kid or parent, but the good outweighs the bad.
Having my own studio has allowed me to spend more time with my daughter and it's also given me a sence of pride too. big grin

Yeah, I'm getting opportunities now...some of which I've had to pass up. sad A month from now, though, I'll have many barriers removed...my goal is to revisit Spain after the new year, new photo equipment in hand...then return and settle in for a lot of hard work. smile

I'll need to talk to you some more, I think...lol

I am a Pastor.

For the most part, I like what I do, though today was not the best day to ask that question.

I wouldn't do anything else..this is what I feel called to do, and have known since I was a teenager.

And no, for those who are skeptics, I do not drive a lexus, caddi, or the like, and right now I am wearing a sweater I had from COLLEGE, that is not a name brand, so there goes the High Pay/Offering Plate/Glory of it all ...

Errr...I don't really know actually. I'm guessing it would be about 6-8 hours by plane.

I retired a couple of years ago and now help to run my partner's company from home. I don't do enough at the moment which is why I'm trying to fill my time with creative activities. I haven't ruled out returning to work in a couple of years but it will be vocational rather than anything highly paid.

I'm a graphic designer / illustrator. In general, I like what I do, but sometimes, the amount of energy and hours (18 hour days sometime with no overtime pay) I put into some projects for my portfolio leave me exhausted and fatigued, but always challenging myself is exciting.

My ideal career would be to be a painter. Paint what I want to paint, nothing more and make tons of money from it!
