Part of me kind of misses doing the media relations stuff. It sounds like you do it on a higher level than I did (I did it for a legal non-profit); sometimes it drove me crazy, but it was fun.

I am a Captain in the Army

[Cardinal026]

I'm an Exec Admin/Program Coordinator on a contract for Customs...I spend my whole life taking and typing minutes.

[ForeverRoses]

I like it sometimes. It makes me sad when I read the articles reporters have written about us because it usually just makes me think about how I would have written it differently. After my life settles down a little bit (getting married in a month), I'm going to start pursuing reporting jobs.

That's funny, I actually used to feel the same way. I thought it helped out a bit to have a journalism background, because when you were trying to pitch things to outlets, you can at least show that you have an understanding of their job and daily demands.

I tried going back to the reporting thing briefly, but I found that I didn't love it as much as I did when I was writing professionally in high school and at the beginning of college (sports and politics reporter for a couple of local papers).

I joke that my career has slowly gotten more cynical, from reporter, to media relations, and now law school...

Oh, and congrats on the upcoming wedding.

I'm a District Manager for a retail company (killer hours)

I also run a Greek Store on the side with a couple of my fraternity brothers.

And now I am a reporter! I cover the House and Senate floor.

I'm a computer programmer. And for some reason considering becoming a middle or high school math teacher.
