What industry do you work in?

What industry do you work in?

nt

Everyone is "invested", so we're all working for ourselves. A service is what you do for other people in exchange for dubloons.

Much of the finance industry is service though -

Should I have included that in the tradesman catagory?

Sort of.

But I'm trying to live the American dream and go back to college to finish my degree. I hope I'm not working food service for much longer.

I work in the consulting industry -- I work for a large human resources consulting firm.

But I fall into that category as well.

at least its not MSM

n/t

and "programmer", etc.

Maybe in a few days somebody who's better at this than me can do another of these...

i think it would have been a pretty big category ...

the "graphics design" category really didn't fit what i do ...

no problem though ... that's how you learn ...

It seems odd to check "other" for one of the largest industries in the world.

If you write the policies, what? legal?

If nothing fits, I guess "other".

n/t

Local.

State for me.

I was a mental health counselor for years, but my last job title was "outreach educator".

Higher education is the only instituion with which I'm involved.

does that count?

Institutional advancement, especially arts funding.

from a VA medical center.

almost finished with school. Studying to become a Medical Transcriptionist.

fancy word for recycling

I am a secretary with a school district in the dallas burbs.

medical retirement an industry--I have been doing it for 24 years.

Can't say I'm unemployed. Got laid off 3 yrs ago, then started watching my infant grandson. Still watching him while my daughter works and goes to college. And he's 100% HIGH grade octane!!

so I do a little bit of everything. My business focus is computer repair so I just put myself down for "plumbing, electrician, mechanic, skilled repair or manufacturing."

Full-time student right here.

I work in a drugstore, but am doing an internship as a probation case management assistant, and I am still in college.

Eventually I will be a forensic psychologist.

I run a website network personally (like this one: mockriot), and I also am the project manager for a compute game company called Renegade Gods.

ie., taxicabs. I generally consider it 'transportation' in surveys like this.

I didn't pick retail, since the business has a lot more in common with a trucking company than a department store.

Trust me, it's only temporary. I'll have moved on within two years, for sure.

...so I clicked other.

I work in the security industry, currently doing loss prevention work for a major electronics store in Melbourne (Australia.) However, I am also currently looking around for other work.

I am not happy with the security firm I am currently working for. They are only a small firm and deal souly with providing security guards to watch premises, do uniformed loss prevention work, and mobile patrols.

The firm is three very small never heard of security companies merged together to form a public owned security company.

The bosses have no idea in hell what they are doing. They treat their guards with very little respect, and in recent months have lost ten of their best guards, because of the treatment we constantly receive.

Being in security there are so many different areas I can head into. I am currently looking at working at one of our historical sites in my state, otherwise I will end up looking at either one of our three major zoo's in the state, or working at the airport, or heading in doors and working at one of the major computer alarm monitoring sections for a well known security firm.

call me paranoid, but it's like you could do a full sketch of a person on these polls people run, and determine who they are and what city they work in, and what type of work, their general age, and so on... I don't need any freepers hounding me..


paranoia runs deep with bush in the nut house.. I mean white house. (grin)

But I am so "out" on the 'net, that is anyone truly wanted to find out who I am they could. It isn't hard to track me.

I figure if there is a nut that is willing to travel from the U.S. to Australia to hound someone who happens to work in the security industry, hence starting an international incident, then they truly are nuts and deserve the punishment they will get once I call the police on their ass. LOL

Biomedical Consulting and Research......I answered.

working on AIDS and cancer drugs.

I used to be a clinical microbiologist (pediatric) but that went to the wayside. I now do consulting work with Pharma companies with drugs not yet approved by the FDA (phase I-IV human drug trials), mostly oncology and but some pediatrics.

but people like you have made some incredible advancements in science and health.

If it wasn't for Eli Lilly inventing penicillin, my grandfather would've died a few years before my father was born.
