To ask what your job is?

[heatwave2019]

I'm a model (signed with 2 pretty big agencies in London) and have 2/3 jobs each month usually. Started age 18.
Go on castings constantly though which gets tiresome.
Haven't worked for any designer brands yet but a fair few beauty/makeup jobs and swimwear/lingerie.

I'm also a student studying natural sciences at a university in London in my 2nd year.

I will be looking for a job relating to my degree after graduation but if my modelling picks up more before then I'll definitely dedicate full time to that after graduating.

(I'm 20 years old for reference)

I'm the director for emergency planning for a City. So response, recovery and business continuity plans. Risk assessments, training and exercises I get to do the lot. Each plan (hundreds of them) is like my baby from start to finish and includes how we will work with emergency services. And yes it does include the big incidents, think MEN bombing and Grenfell. Love love love it. Every day is different. Although no where near as glamorous as yours OP.

@ElspethFlashman I work in ED and unfortunately see some horrific things but I rarely get upset over it, however it's the children and baby's that I can always remember and they are the jobs I do not like.

I work in Antarctica. I love working somewhere so remote and spending time in a place I’d be unable to visit if I didn’t work here but it’s difficult not to be able to get back to my friends and family when they need me.

LD Support worker in a challenging behaviour service. Its difficult and stressful and you have to watch your back all the time, but its a fabulous job.

Sounds like you have your head screwed on op.Smashing,well done.
I flog kids clothes.Got a few little shops.Pays the bills

I've done a fair bit of ED in the past with agency work and thank god never had to be in Resus when kids were in there. I couldn't hack kids, I really couldn't.

The cancer I see is pleural, which has very poor outcomes. That's the hardest part. It's hard to keep your glass half full.

I'm a radio presenter. But it's not really a well paid career unless you're on a big station.

So I also work in internal communications.

Perks are meeting and interviewing bands and getting free tickets for festivals and gigs.

Solicitor. I'd like to retrain as s children's nurse or midwife, but no chance now that the training bursaries are gone. It shall remain a pie in the sky dream! I shall continue in law until I retire then do something 'helpful to others' just to keep me occupied.

@MidnightBlue00 thank you oooh that sounds interesting, where do you get the clothes from? Is it a business?

@Namechangeymcnamechange11 could you maybe save to retrain? Solicitors earn quite a decent amount I thought?

Don't give up!

I work as a manager in corporate banking, looking after businesses which are headquartered in the UK (but many have a global presence). Most are large household names with significant borrowing requirements (£75m or more). It’s my job to help lend them money and look after their other banking requirements.

I’m a management consultant with one of the big international consulting firms. LOTS of travel if you want it! Now that I have kids I try to take assignments closer to home when possible, but my first 3 years a travelled Mon-Thurs almost every week. Canada, US, Chile, Italy, France... also had offers to go to Australia, Papua New Guinea and South Africa, but turned those down!

Multi-skilled self-employed. Basically I've hoarded everything I've ever learnt to do and still do them all. Everything from data entry to writing to retail to TV production to catering. It works for me, as do I. There was never a plan.

I'm a chef

It's not fun in this weather 😀

Bit obvs, really!

But I have always worked in industry and academic/special libraries so have no idea what the waiting list's like for the latest by a popular author, or why your fines are so steep

I'm an executive assistant for someone high ranking in the military's and government. Don't travel much anymore as have kids but used to go on lots it trips abroad. Have done cover work in the diary room at number 10 for down experience in my youth

I teach basic skills (literacy and numeracy) to mainly young mums, and English as a second language mainly to refugee women in my community. I was previously a secondary teacher. I'm disabled and do this work for 2 charities, and don't get paid much, but I love it!

I am a manager for a drinks company ... I manage the team who design the packaging for whisky 🥃 gin vodka etc and also manage the procurement of all the bits that go into the pack ...

My life is knee deep in alcohol 😂

I’m a manager in Corporate Banking, dealing exclusively with complaints.

I deal with everything that goes wrong with the banks biggest clients - often re-writing massive loans and dealing with massive international payments and fx deals gone wrong - and issuing a fuck tonne of compensation every day. I also liaise a lot with the Financial Ombudsman for the smaller businesses that refer on to them.

Really enjoy my job 😊

Human Resources co-ordinator - bloody love it!

Doing a diploma in Wedding planning and designing though!

gosh all these high flying ladies on here i do two jobs i clean for a restaurant five mornings a week and run the ebay page for a cat charity three days a week and foster feral kittens for the same charity,

I'm someone who overdiscloses on the internet because I can't resist a chance to talk about myself.

@bloodywhitecat I love reptiles! Actually I don't work directly with the zoo animals at all, I work on all the zoo's external conservation projects around the world. I'm based at the zoo though, which my dd loves.

I'm a door supervisor in a nightclub. I basically prevent drunk people from harming themselves and each other. It's entertaining.
