Steven · I Don't Like Mondays

Hmmm... Interesting! I've been (or was) a carpenter/cabinet maker/contractor/painter/whatever you wanna call it ever since I got out of high-school (too many years ago to think about)

I've been working 6 years in the home improvement business here in Canada (like Home Depot) but I'm getting the URGE to go back to my roots....

Time will tell. In the meantime, I do the odd-job here and there, and am constantly building furniture, etc for the house.. *jumps as MJ cracks the whip*

Alli · Mary of the 4th Form

I am a hospice/palliative care , specialist counselor...primary role to assemble a team of medical professionals, family, volunteers to provide support to the terminal patient who can no longer benefit in curative treatment rather concentrate on the quality of their remaining life. I usually work with the patients who wish to live their remaining days at home.

I have taken a year's hiatus, working on my second book....

MMbullybuddyGP · Drag Me Down

What's your book about, Alli? What was the first one about? I like to write as well so that interests me

Alli · Mary of the 4th Form

The first is a book on how children cope with loss and bereavement , whether it is a parent, close family member, a long time family pet which could be a fish. Children have a unique innocent way of expressing themselves and deal with loss in a far better way than most adults. I used my son's experiences as a then 6 year old coping during the course of my mother's illness and subsequent death from AIDS. How her decline and eventual Aids related dementia affected him. There are many anecdotes from others who had experienced similiar loss.. Currently it is being used as a learning tool for training procedures, teaching volunteers on how to approach children and talk to them about death. Currently not released for public reading

The second one is a book of poetry, short stories and prose. Still in the works.....

Alison · Banana Republic

Work as an ergonomist...or health and safety if you're not sure...

camilladk · Tonight

Now I'm studying at a school called VUC in english that would mean Adult Education Center

MMbullybuddyGP · Drag Me Down

Oh yes, mine has changed from the beginning of this topic. I am currently a business manager at a Friesian horse & Great Dane farm/organization. It's cool sometimes but frustrating other times. Basically I just got thrown into organizing all the farm owner's crap that he's extremely behind on...hard to organize/record stuff if I don't know what it is or where it came from. But the Danes are a lot of fun & the horses are nice to look at.

camilladk · Tonight

Thanks

Really, Friesian horses! They come from close to where I grew up, from Friesland (part of northern Germany). I used to love them when I was a kid - they're just so huge!

I did horse riding for many years, my favourites were always Icelanders. Small but strong and they have five "gears"! (I have no idea how you put this in proper English, LOL!)

For a living: I'm an online editor for an online magazine aimed at young people who're interested in politics. Currently, I write all about the upcoming elections here in Germany.

MMbullybuddyGP · Drag Me Down

They are huge & so cool looking. This guy's into big, tame animals.

Pay is decent, oeokosko - Maryland is better than Virginia, pay-wise (I've worked in both areas, huge difference in the animal career field pay).

I've heard of Icelanders before - they're cute "Gears..." hmm...do you mean gaits (different types of movement...walk, trot, canter, tolt, rack, etc.) or speeds?

Sounds like a unique job you have, Katharina.
