I work as a Training Aministrator for an accounting firm in our National Level Training Department. We train around 1000 participants every year in our firm and it is my job to make sure the training goes off from a hitch.

 

I get to seek out hotels for us to have our training, negotiate contracts, arrange for materials printing, plan fun social events and pick tasty food for our participants to eat!

 

I travel about 30% of the time and am out of the office around 60% of the time so I love it! I think I would go stir crazy sitting in an office more than I already do... and that isn't very often.

 

Right now I am particularly loving my job because I am in the process of planning a large meeting for our company at the Bellagio! I love that place!

I am in graduate school for Applied Behavior Analysis and working to become a Board Certified Behavior Analyst.

Mo! I am a behaviorist! I got my degree from UCLA and ABA credits from Penn state. I work for an NPA that that only provides ABA therapy. I have been doing it now for 5 years. I no longer do therapy, I write programs, assessments and supervise the majority of the cases we have. I work with children mostly with Autism but also with different disorders (down syndrome, CP, seizure disorder, Asperger, PDD, ADHD) I also work with typical kids with challenging behaviors. It's a difficult job but i love it, kids are the best!

Wow, this thread is soo interesting! Very cooll!

I am a cytotechnologist at a medical diagnostic laboratory.

I screen and analyze slides of patients' cells under a microscope and look for cancerous changes and other abnormalities that might be there. I like my job for the most part, it can be stressful and it can get monotonous at times. But, we provide valuable information for patients and their doctors waiting on test results that could potentially save someone's life and that makes me feel pretty darn good
