What do you do for a living?

I am a commercial bill collector for a company called Net Recovery Inc.

I was a plant operator before my accident and lost that job so I went into
this field.

Freelance Graphic Artist

I'm thinking of going into teaching Art in the fall, maybe high school, and going back to college to get my Masters in Fine Art. Though, if I happen to actually sell one of my screenplays, it might start a new career for me as a screenriter. I don't think I'd want to have to move to L.A. though, at least not for long.

I graduated with a BA in psychology 3 years ago and I work for an outpatient mental health facility. I work in a crisis dept. that deals w/ people on an emergency basis. People who are suicidal, homicidal, or psychotic come to our office and we evaluate them for inpatient hospitalization. I've been here for almost 2 years. Right now I'm waiting to hear back from an interview I had at our sister office (which is WAY closer to my house) doing early intervention for children in the school systems. I have to call about it today. Wish me luck!! [img]/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]/forum/images/smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I was a Building Construction Inspector for the Commonwealth of Pa. I was the quality control person for state funded contracts.I was fired after my accident because they said I could no longer do what I was hired to do. Now I am going back to school for Architectural Technology. It will give me an Associates in Applied Science. Then I can decide if I want to continue and become a legal architect. Thank God for the GI Bill and OVR !!!

For 25 years I was a lobbyist for the U.S. auto manufacturers. I retired 10 years ago at age 55. I did some free lance public relations for a not-for-profit organization. After the motorcycle crash I did not return to free lancing. I now volunteer two days a week for our small town's downtown development association. I am one year post this month.
