Following another post, I thought it might be a good idea if we all put down our jobs/skills, in case we can help each other out by passing any business to each other!

So far we have:

JANSELL: Publications Designer: newsletters, leaflets, brochures, invitations companies or individuals)

TIGERMOTH: events management and copywriting

MORNINGPAPER (me!): Website design / website consultancy (websites from around £200 per site - billy bargain)

Anyone else?!

you all sound like high-flying businessy types in the city etc - how do you all manage to have children too!?! my job sounds dead ordinary now (i wont repeat it)

alicatsg · 22/11/2004 16:33

I was just thinking how many arty, creative types there are. Feel very grey-suit now!!

zephyrcat · 22/11/2004 16:34

i'm with you there np!! All these posh jobs make me an dp sound rubbish!!! lol

nailpolish · 22/11/2004 16:38

zeph your post actually sounds the most interesting. iused to work behind a bar and it was great!

Blu · 22/11/2004 16:39

Oi! stop that! We're all here because we're Mums...no judgements of anyone else's job, lifestyle, and no-one allowed to describe themselves as rubbish...you'll have me quoting the MN in a minute!
(Anyway - perhaps they're lying....dah dah daaaaaah!)

MrsDoolittle · 22/11/2004 16:39

nailpolish - don't be daft! I know how tough your job is

Blu · 22/11/2004 16:40

MN philosophy, that is.

zephyrcat · 22/11/2004 16:40

at least you've got a 'proper' job though!! lol mine weren't exactly careers - what exactly do you do? I think you do what my Auntie is currently trying to get into

DillyDally · 22/11/2004 16:40

There is nothing ordinary about being a nurse (if I have scrolled down correctly)

MrsDoolittle · 22/11/2004 16:41

Here here Blu. Defeats the object of what this is about I think
I am enjoying it and I am sure it's just because I am terminally nosey

nailpolish · 22/11/2004 16:41

sorry

mdl - what do you lecture in? is it adult nursing? being nosy - sorry

mummytummy · 22/11/2004 16:41

ZC and NP, at least yours is more interesting than a p/t legal secretary!! Lets start a new thread on who's job is more ordinary!!
