I currently work in client services for a print / mail vendor. I'm not sure what my dream job would be but it would involve traveling.

I'm currently IT manager for a small company in Arizona, and this has been my most difficult stint yet. I've been doing this on and off since 1963 with a 17 year time-out for being a disk jockey (IT pays better).

I would much rather make a living as a writer, but all successful writeers say "don't give up your day job".

JoAnn ~ Traveling sounds awesome to me! Thanks for stopping by!
Mariah H. Coruth Oct 21, 2007, 5:44pm EDT
Walker ~ WOW! That is interesting. I find that it is so rare to see someone at a job for 20+ years. Thanks for stopping by!

I work at a credit union and I would love to work with books:) So perhaps a Librarian for me? will look at some courses next year, wish me luck:)
Mariah H. Coruth Oct 21, 2007, 5:54pm EDT
Headof Redd ~ I agree with the raising kids but I would do it with scrap booking. :)

Irene ~I wish you luck taking courses. I am doing the same. One class per semester. That is all I can handle! LOL

Thanks for visiting!

My dream job, hmmmm, special effects designer for the movies. I currently work in a little cubicle doing I know not what.
Leah Christensen Oct 21, 2007, 11:07pm EDT
Right now I write, and I love it. I would LOVE to win the lottery, though.
Tina Coruth Oct 21, 2007, 11:52pm EDT
I'm a writer who gets paid peanuts. My dream job is to write and at least double my pay! LOL
Mariah H. Coruth Oct 22, 2007, 11:48am EDT
Tara ~ That sounds up your alley
Karen ~ Awesome! Your post reminds me of my quote I use at work "To love what you do and feel that it matters, how could anything be more fun?" by Katharine Grahm
Leah ~ I agree with you!
Mom ~ 2 peanuts? That isn't even enough for a snack! LOL
