Super User cart7t Posted March 3, 2009 Super User Posted March 3, 2009 I was a strolling mime for the longest time but suffered from job burnout. I took up a gig as a juggler at a carnival but had a run in with the bearded lady and moved onto my current job, appraising Obama memorial coins and selling cheap, knockoff shamwow's on Ebay. Quote

atx_newbie Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I'm currently unemployed in my industry, real estate management. I enjoy most parts of the business. I get to meet a ton of people, and 90% of what I do is just making friends and conversation, something perfect for me because I can't ever keep my mouth shut anyway. There are parts of the business that I don't like. Every now and then you have a tenant who falls on hard times and you have to evict. I have seen and done some things that have broken my heart. After I go back to school and finish my degree I want to reenter this business to prove to people that it is possible to be a good person AND a landlord. Right now though, I am working on getting a business off the ground. It's a company that takes pictures of homes and make virtual tours for real estate agents. I did this before about 3 years ago and really loved it. Good pay, lot's of freedom, no set schedule, and no boss. Quote

Haha yeah I can't believe I forgot that part. Every day: Baby: "When are you going to get a job." Me: "Baby, I've got a job." Baby: "No, I mean a real one." Something tells me she doesn't have much faith in my project... Quote
