What do you do for living

My title is "graphic designer" but I am not really one. My job is to do promotional graphics for the CEO office at Elections Canada, in fact. This is my first week as a professional since I finish my career program just last week

It's really fun, I love it, the only thing is that sometimes I am not "free" to do the graphics I want, but I cannot complain. They treat me well and the pay I will be getting is really nice, so I am happy.

Congrats Chris!! It's been a long haul, I can't believe that I've been "buddies" with you since you started your program! I admire your dedication and commitment!

I would love to blowshit up for a living!! There are some fantastic jobs people here have, mine? Im a healthcare assistant for the elderly, a job you get no thanks for, shitty pay, and get bitten, spat at, kicked, punched, scratched, they try and get you sacked by making shit up, paints a different picture to the sweet little old people most believe the elderly are!

Oh I know what you mean. My girlfriend works as a nursing assistent at an elderly home while she is finishing her studies. She doesnt mind the work, but sometimes she tells me stories that are just horrifying. Like you said, it shows you the other side of old people.

Anyway, Im still studying... on weekends I clean a factory for some extra cash, but im looking for something new to do.

I'm a Painter & Decorator.
Can be hard work at times but its great going to do a job at someones house and seeing the room before you start and then when you finish.

I'm a Biomedical Engineer. Basically I work on all medical equipment, tests, repairs, installations etc. Also do hospitals, ambulances, patient transports, medical helicopters etc etc.

Both electronic and gas stuff, so like all the machines you see hooked up to patients on tv, and all the oxygen, suction etc that magically comes through the walls somehow


I also coach swimming (being an ex-swimmer myself) - kids from about 10-13, becoming state level swimmers.

I also am Duty Manager at a pool once a week (basically run the joint, give everyone breaks, make sure the water is ok, everything's running etc), just for a bit of extra money.


While I was at school and uni I used to swim teach, coach, lifeguard, dm etc etc part time.

Wow I am stuck in here with some fancy jobbers! I almost dont dare to tell you my position - I am merely a mailman in Denmark. Been for 5+ years and now I'm stuck here... But as long as you enjoy what you are doing - then whats the problem right?
