Another poll by Ranger

[Ranger]

Here is another one of my polls, don't these get old. LOL.

Are you happy with your profession/career or would you like to change your profession/career?

1. I like my profession/career
2. I would like to change my profession/career
3. I am undecided

[AGRConductor]

have to say i love my job.

[LPL]

I love my job.

[chrymalone]

Wish I had another job..Working on it.

[Polly]

I love, love, love my job

[Auburn#1]

Not as enthused as you Aufan's sis, but I do like my job. Sometimes I don't like the lack of knowledge of some fellow employees.......but I guess that is everywhere!

[Easyrider]

Good poll Ranger!

I enjoy my job although the politics that go w/ it gets on my nerves from time-to-time. Looking back, I wish I had attended trade school right out of high school and gone into my current field. I feel I could have learned more & possibly moved on from here.

[Wyldfire]

Well I am working in a field and at the job I envisioned myself working in. One day I hope to advance into something else, but you have to start somewhere!

[AUFAN]

I hate my job!!!!

[sparkles01]

I like my job!!!!! Don't know if it is what I will do the rest of my life but I really enjoy what I do

[Chipper]

I'm in sales with products pertaining to a sport I love....enjoy what I do most of the time.

[Fast Bellanca]

Like my job most of the time. Just hang in their wildfire--it will happen-- be ready when it does.

[red]

im an assistant manager at a clothing store. loads of fun there. but it is payin my way through school and helpin with the bills so i can get to my ultimate goal of marine biology and zoology with a minor in photography and oceanography. so i guesss its ok for now.

[bigdaddysgirl69]

I love my job!! I am a housewife!!! No I dont sit at home watching soaps all day either. It is a job taking care of kids, but I wouldn't give it up for the world! By the way I HATE SOAPS!!

[MoonBeam]

Well this is tricky ranger.....I love what I do, I manage an auto repair shop...which is fabulous, love the people love the mechanics... I am the Estrogen in a see of testosterone what is not to love!

Is it what I dream of doing??? NO!!

I would love to be a writer and I always loved painting. Hence why I face paint for the charities which is a fun and rewarding thing i have managed to continue for several years. But being a writer and being an artist does not pay the bills. So until then I will make my money and enjoy what I do, and do it to the best of my ability. One day when I win WSOP tour I will then retire and write my novel and paint my seascapes and relax. SIGHHHHH

[mmcd3182]

I don't have a career or profession yet. But I've had a lot of different careers... since that's what we want to call a job.

In the past 6 years I've had a career in pharmacy, law, mapping, surveying, computer networking, computer repair, teaching, and music performance and composition, photography, writing, and I'm leaving something out.... but I enjoyed all of them, met some great people, and even if the money wasn't outstanding, just the time spent doing it was worth it.

I hope I keep this desire to keep changing. I hate settling on one thing. Which is why I'm majoring in two different things. I'll have a lot of options, but I think I'm going to start out with something I feel comfortable in, and eventually move to teaching. I love the educational environment -- preferably the university or high school setting.

[tidechick]

I like my job most of the time! It's go, go, go all day which makes the day by so fast. And I love my co-workers! It's never a dull moment.

[RoadstarB]

I love my job, I get to work with landowners, our local volunteer firefighters, our local citys and towns and I get to drive the taxpayer's 4x4 truck, bulldozier.
The state politics can be nerve racking at times, but overall I love talking to landowners about thier dreams for their property and help them to achieve those dreams. Working with the communities is always fun. Did I mention going to schools and talking to the older kids about forestry and doing fire prevention, I love doing the Smokey Bear fire prevention programs in the elementary schools, the kids love Smokey.
My job doesn't pay what I think it should, but I love doing a variety of things, day to day the jobs are different. At least I am not in one of those paper mills standing on concrete all day (of course those guys make alot more money than I do). Being on fire-call 24/7 is not always fun either, but overall I LOVE MY JOB!!!

[Jabber Jaw]

I LOVE being a nurse, I LOVE my residents, and I REALLY LOVE getting to work with shortstuff everyday...sometimes I couldn't make it through all the BS without her!! :) Love ya girl!

[H-D Rider]

I like my job except when it has been this hot.

[Boisterous]

i like my job i would just like to do something more thrilling

[shortstuff]

I LOVE being a nurse, I LOVE my residents, and I REALLY LOVE getting to work with shortstuff everyday...sometimes I couldn't make it through all the BS without her!! :) Love ya girl!

right back at ya girl!!! i love being nurse and i love my residents ( most of them :evil: ). i love who i work with, JabberJaw helps me keep my sanity especially on the crazy days and we have alot of those!

[debby]

I love my job!! I am a housewife!!! No I dont sit at home watching soaps all day either. It is a job taking care of kids, but I wouldn't give it up for the world! By the way I HATE SOAPS!!
It's the most rewarding job, with rewards that never end. I'm coming to the end of mine. My son is so close to being grown it's heartbreaking. I know I will always be their mom, and grandma to their kids. But, I've noticed since my daughter is grown we are close friends. But they will always be my babies. Now I would like to find a job or go take some college courses. Or not! I'm gonna see what God has in store for me the next few years.
I know what you mean about soaps. So stupid!

[LS7]

I love my job! I get to work with the public and they actually pay me to run over stuff with a bulldozer and set stuff on fire! Seriously though, it is rewarding to help people reach their goals with their property. My only regret is that I did not get the job 20 years ago.

[nurse L]

I love being a nurse. It is very rewarding. I really like traveling. That way if I get tired of the bull at the hospital I am working at.....I can go to another.

There are several people at UWA that are older than the average college student.... I always like having them in class. If nothing else... they speak up & tell the professor who is their age or younger to "SLOW DOWN" :-) And now with the community college in town you wouldn't even have to leave town to take some classes.

Learning something new is always rewarding.

[20south]

I love, love my job as a Labor and Delivery nurse...on most days that is. When things turn out for the good, I don't think there can be a much more rewarding job at the end of the day than knowing you helped someone bring their child into this world. However, when things go wrong...it makes my job very stressful and hard to emotionally handle at times. Overall though, I have to say that enjoy and look forward to going to work and you can't complain about that.

[Energizer]

I like my job, but having to work sux!

[Tadpole]

I like my job most of the time! It's go, go, go all day which makes the day by so fast. And I love my co-workers! It's never a dull moment.

I am with you on that tidechick! Doing our job is non-stop action and I love the fact that our days just fly by; which is great when you are wanting the weekend to hurry and get here. My co-workers are great! I couldn't work with a better group of women. They are wonderful!

OK LS7, I really know you regret quiting your old job to come work this job!!! LOL

[mdbagent69]

lol, that was good. Guess I should hold back next time Eh..
But, yes i love all my jobs.

[0ldman]

I don't have a career or profession yet. But I've had a lot of different careers... since that's what we want to call a job.
Weeell... a job is a job, a career is something you stick with. I've had several jobs that are computer related, lots of different jobs that weren't. My career is in the IT industry. The way I see it, a career is what you do regardless of where you work.
I enjoy my profession, but its volatile, changes constantly, any little thing can change overnight and make a big difference.
Computers and cars, if you take a break for a month or two, the world has changed by the time you start back. Its bad enough that you start to feel a tad rusty after only a week off. Nasty new bugs come out on a daily basis.

[hebbie]

i love my job, but it can be stressfull. the joy of truely helping someone is something that you cannot describe.

[Belle]

I love my job!

[dillybar]

I love secretarial work. I hate where I am planted for the moment (and the past 4 years of moments).

I've spoken with God about this on several occasions.

Sometimes, I think I'm being punished, sometimes I think I'm being taught patience.

Praying for God's will in this matter. Know for sure that God isnt happy that I'm this unhappy with my job. Sacrifices we make for our kids, health insurance, etc...........argh. Humbling, to say the least.

[MsD]

would LOVE to have another job. wish i could figger out how 2 maintain my lifestyle & go back to college for a different degree.....
i do love my current job, tho. :)
could easily be one of those "professional students" we see around campuses.

[Mimosa]

I love my job. Enjoy working with people and enjoy meeting new people.

[msufan]

I liked my job I had and I love my job now, stay at home mom. It is so wonderful to be able to watch my daughter grow and learn.

[4Fuqua]

I like my job most of the time! It's go, go, go all day which makes the day by so fast. And I love my co-workers! It's never a dull moment.

"Most of the time"???????? LOL
We are no doubt go, go, go all day! I have to agree, best co-workers yet!!

[4Fuqua]

I am with you on that tidechick! Doing our job is non-stop action and I love the fact that our days just fly by; which is great when you are wanting the weekend to hurry and get here. My co-workers are great! I couldn't work with a better group of women. They are wonderful!

You can no doubt say non-stop! It is great though! We couldn't ask for a better group of kids! They make the days fly by! And I must say I do have a great group of workers. Ya'll are great! Couldn't ask for a better staff!
Thanks for a job well done!! Love you girls!!

[ladiva]

I like my career/profession for the most part. Military full time is quite a job, but I wouldn't change it. One of my passions if photography, but hopefully I'll have plenty of time for that later in life. My job is really good and for the most part I work with a pretty good group of guys.

[Bumblebee]

Love my job, I am a housewife, and no I do not sit and watch soaps all day, food network,yes. Really like to keep our 5 grandchildren, so I can play.

[live4him]

Hats off to ya..............you really have a tough job and it takes a special mom (and sometimes dad) to accept the position of full-time stay at home parent..

[Chrissy]

My job is good and I'm grateful for it. It's not where I want to be professionally but I have to finish my degree.

[teach11]

I love both my careers--taking care of my family and teaching high school English. Both of these jobs mold me every day. I'm going to combine the two this year--I'm going to have my older son in English class.

[boss]

I loved my job, but I think I will like my new position better, retirement.

[brown_eyed_girl]

I loved my job, but I think I will like my new position better, retirement.

I'm counting down the days myself! LOL... so far I'm come to the conclusion that I have a long way to go!

[boss]

I'm counting down the days myself! LOL... so far I'm come to the conclusion that I have a long way to go!
I used to think that it was such a long time away, but time flys. I'm sure you know what I mean.
I enjoy being able to do what I need to do everyday.

[teach11]

Have a good time, boss! You deserve it!

[uwa_amanda]

I liked my old job most of the time...but I LOVE my job now. I am a fleet manager at a trucking company. It's a very busy area. It makes my day fly by...yeah the hours are long but when I leave for the day, I feel like I've only been there for a couple of hours.

[amy131]

Wouldn't want to do anything else.....so fullfilling.....will probably drop dead right where I am....(with a smile on my face)

[BamaChE04]

I like what I do at my job pretty well, but it is most DEFINITELY the people that make it great!

[rockingtenn]

:) right back at ya girl!!! i love being nurse and i love my residents ( most of them :evil: ). i love who i work with, JabberJaw helps me keep my sanity especially on the crazy days and we have alot of those!

I want to go work with them!:mad: They get to have fun! Just kidding, wouldn't trade my job with any woman, actually couldn't give my job to any woman. It's tuff but I do get to work with all men! Just don't tell my hubby cause he thinks I work with all women! lol!! My job is fun and a lot of hard work but everything just seems to come together at the end of the day! One thing I will say, men are great to work with, they act just like women do but after you cuss each other out, it's over! There is no more na-nay behind backs, it just rolls off your back and life is good! I will tell yall a little secret about men..... they absolutely adore their children and talk about them all the time. Wifes too, without saying so much that would get me killed tomorrow, most men that I work with try to talk BIG but at the end, it's always their wife they seem to think they owe everything too! So...everyone that knows me and knows I work with their hubby, go give them a kiss. They do deserve it! There is something to be said about a bunch of men that will sit around and listen to me talk about how wonderful my husband is!!!!:)

[rockingtenn]

You should love your job Ladiva! I was one of the cold people standing outside crying as yall all drove away! That is a proud job to have and I know you do it well. If I only had a 1/3 of the courage you have, maybe I would be right beside you. I'm just glad that yall are back now and hopefully will not have to go again! But if the need be, I am proud of you and the rest of the unit for fighting for us and the freedoms we sometimes take for things that are owed to us.

[rockingtenn]

I like my job, but having to work sux!

You call what you do work? lol! You are very good at your job and should be very proud!

[Kagan]

I like my profession/career, but I don't like my job. Go figure.

[Rpolite]

I like my job! Gone from home way too much, but it's worth it.

[TishaGuy]

I love being a nurse...I don't particularly like working in oncology nursing because it's not mental health nursing, which is the love of my professional life, but I love nursing in general.

[stickman]

I am content where I am for now. The money is good and the working conditions are better than my previous profession. $85,000 in 9 months and being able to be at home for Nov and Dec during the holidays without having to work is hard to beat!

[Eagle101]

Retirement IS the best job! No clock to punch. No deadlines to meet. No boss to please (except for my wife). Sleep late if I want. The volunteer jobs is what wears a person out.

[Lucky Lady]

I loved my job, couldn't have picked a better career. I was a RN with a state funded program for 1st time teen pregnancies, worked with them and then their babies until they were two years old. Very rewarding. At the beginning 85% were on welfare, by the end only 20% were. All finished High school, went on to college or went to work. One day our great State of Alabama decided to pull the grant money for my program saying these teens didn't need the help. So...I decided I didn't need to work for the state any longer. Retired early, work part time and volunteer.

shhhhhhh.......Chris is gonna pack me up and send me with you guys in May if you don't keep your mouth shut!!!

[Chris Petrey]

shhhhhhh.......Chris is gonna pack me up and send me with you guys in May if you don't keep your mouth shut!!!

Damn right!
