i developed a seizure disorder late in life so i don't work and live off the government...but when i did work, i was an EMT, working on ambulances and private duty in-home care...i enjoyed both and miss my clients/patients

Hi there my name is scott'  54 was, A journeyman at the local Newspaper for 23 years.  now 3-heart surgeries and diabetic...puts my health in srry shape

Agency worker mainly doing anything and everything,  as was furloughed last easter roughly and the job front has when i worked, been reduced hours

This days I dont do anything for a living other then going to an office to get my payment.

I have to aplay for some jobs but if I dont get any I still get money 

I work for a photocopying company and I deal with all of the IT stuff which 90% of normal people know how to fix, also YES. turning something off and on again will fix it 60% of the time

currently im a full time student so living poor is the best way of life for me :)

Great idea and well framed.

I'm in education, been teaching for many years. Sorry to hear folks have been furloughed. It's very hard times we are living in now.

I work overseas and that has added its own element of fun to the mix. If anyone is a teacher who is considering life, even if it was 2 years, abroad, drop me a line and I can chat about the experience.

I work for the family business.  Some say this sounds good, others not so good.

Pros - I do payroll...say no more

Cons - HR are a bunch of di**s

Anyone else in this position?

I work at a dog daycare, have been for over 13 years. People think it's all playing with cute little puppies, when it's 90% cleaning and collecting bruises. You love them like your own family and if you work there long enough you get to watch them grow up and sometimes  sadly pass away.

I may not make a lot a money, and no benefits ….but I wouldn't trade it.

As one of the let's say "elder statesmen" on MR, I've had a varied and interesting worklife. From living abroad for over 15 years working for blue chip companies throughout Europe, The Gulf/Middle east and Africa to being a chef (Of sorts) with my own Butty Van. 

A few years ago I bought a Locksmith Franchise covering all of Greater Manchester and beyond. Best business decision I've ever made both financially & work enjoyment.

Software Engineering. Atm I'm working at a goverment facility to maintain and expand the local software they use. Pretty dumb tbh but the pay is great.

I do lab data stuff and project management.  Currently setting up a new lab in Cork, Republic of Ireland to do a lot of Brexit related shenanigans.
