In a sentence or two TOPS, describe the basic nature of your job in simple terms.


Here is mine:


A printer prints up bills with food items on them and I cook what is asked by the bill. Also, I prep food to ensure that these orders can be completed.



Day in and day out.


How bout you guys?

    I pick a little boy up from school around 3:30pm, and play games/watch movies/do an hour of tutoring, until around 8pm. I also do about 10 hours a week of charity work during that time, itemizing clothing/toys/linens for donation for tax purposes, errands, and staff management.

    I go to different venues and re-heat food already prepared by other people and boss my subordinates to get the food out. Sometimes I make the food too.

    Well the charity work is part of my job. The woman I work for is involved in a ton of charity work, and I handled the Salvation Army portion of her work. I feel like they know me there at this point. The must wonder when I show up week after week with 20 million things to donate. It's inspiring though, I've actually donated everything extra in my house as a result of seeing how much a difference it can make to the people in the city.

    Thanks AG :)

    therapist at a college counseling center - specializing in working with victims of sexual assault, sexual abuse and domestic violence. I do crisis and long term therapy specifically geared to those issues (but also on every other issue a college student experiences - anxiety, depression, relationship problems, etc etc etc) and present workshops to student groups and academic classes.

    I coordinate/manage labour, materials, equipment and contracts for a construction outfit...I fight over money on the phone, reply to endless emails, attend meetings and seminars, and try not to be too distracted by the steady stream of floaters hanging around the water cooler/coffee and washrooms next to my office.
