What Do You Do For A Crust?

[brendo]

Content Development Manager for an eLearning/training organisation - been in the field about 9-10 years now, started as a html/multimedia/video/audio monkey, moved into project management/sales and now run a team.

This job would be great if it wasn't for one little thing... clients... :beerbang:

[jonocarroll]

PhD candidate in Physics. According to a lot of banks that's not a 'job', despite it having better 'job' security than a lot of 'real' jobs. Just about to finish up (2-3 months) so I'm stressing out a lot. :huh:

As for a crust - PhDs get a scholarship, so I do get paid (it's called a 'scholarship' because it's less than minimum wage). When I wasn't so stressed out I gave undergrad tutorials and marked exam papers, plus whatever bits and pieces came my way.

I ticked 'Professional (uni)' since I've got degrees that got me to here, and I'm not really a 'student' as such - more of a researcher.

Still, it's not a job.

I'm retired now, but when I was still working, it wasn't unusual at lunchtime walking through Sydney CBD to be accosted by Greenpeace, Wilderness Foundation etc etc recruiters/fundraisers.

I used to tell them I was an Executive with a woodchip exporter.
The look of horror on their faces was well worth it.

In reality I was an insurance Claims Manager, dealing with claims by people catastrophically injured in motor vehicle accidents.
