describe what you do at work.

I'm a postpartum nurse on the night shift. Most nights, I have an assignment of 4-6 mothers and their babies. On an average, quiet night, I round on all my patients, doing vital signs and assessments. Then I assess all of their babies. Throughout the night I medicate my patients, feed their babies or assist them with learning to breastfeed, and get my post-op patients up and moving. Then I chart. And chart. And chart some more.

About once a week, I stay in the nursery and just assess, feed, diaper, and admit babies. People think night shift is quiet and boring (one patient recently asked a coworker of mine where we slept-as if!) but the same emergencies and procedures can happen night or day (and the babies need to eat!). Plus, we tend to have less staff on at night.

I work on the rooftops at Wrigley field.
About 3 hours before the game, we set up tables, carry ice/food/beer/soda up 4 flights of stairs, set up all the food and bar, clean bathrooms, etc...make it pretty...
then I open and serve drinks until the game's done.
Then cleanup.

I love it!

I work at a shoe store (right now just on the weekends, normally during the week but summer school is a timehog) so a normal day for me consists of dodging mallwalkers to get to our door, then having to say 'No ma'am, we don't open until 10 (11), I'm sorry." After that I turn on the lights, open the registers, turn on the Muzak, prepare the direct sales, tell the old hag pounding on the door that she can't come in because we have another 15 minutes, send out the direct sales, and open the store for the whiny old biddies. Then I sell shoes.

I design t-shirts and handle some sales/accounts for those. I also do layout for promotional materials like print ads and brochures and I occasionally write and produce television and radio ads.

And I'm also a grad student, so if I'm not working, I'm reading for class or writing a paper!

I spend a lot of time in front of the computer.

Only at the Admiral. Only on free senior citizen night. Only if I'm tripping.

I really am - I've been selling shoes for three years now between three different jobs, which is scary considering I've only been eligible to work for six...yikes!
