What do you do for a living?
We are all here because of our love for pole, but apart from that fact, it seems that there is a pretty diverse group of people who frequent this site :3 So, what is your occupation? Is it pole related or is it something different? Share a bit about it! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
At the moment I am a uni (college) student/ house wife. I'm currently studying a bachelor of science, and initially I wanted to get into the field of geology but now I'm not so sure. I'm leaning more to something water related now. I should just focus on getting through it first https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
So, what about you?

I love the diverse range of jobs here π
I'm currently studying for a (funded) masters degree in Biomedical Research & it's killing me! Think I might leave the world of research after I'm done, just not cut out for it so it would seem. -
My career path has been a roller coaster of ups and downs, and a few track changes along the way.
I started out wanting to be a machinist, but I live in a small town where it's a bit of a "boys' club" and since I have boobs…well…even after 8 years of experience it didn't work out so well. Then in 2008 the recession hit…and I haven't had a permanent full-time job since. I started taking an accounting program in hopes of findng a job doing that, but have had no luck in that department even after 3 years of classes! And since I don't have full-time employment I can't afford to keep taking the classes, so I don't even know if I'll ever get to finish the program! π In the meantime I've done receptionist/administrative work, fast food, worked at a convenience store, and a few temporary jobs here and there to make ends meet. Currently I work at Canadian Tire (a hardware store), make beds in a Long Term Care facility, and teach pole lessons to a couple friends. This summer I am planning on doing my group fitness certification, and start advertising to teach pole so maybe I can quit one of the other part-time jobs. π

I am a private horn instructor, pole fitness instructor, and I work as a fine dining server and sommelier. I love the diversity of my jobs but I kinda wish I could have benefits from a full time job. But I'm a musician working in an interesting economic environment so I just pull from all of my talents and make it work! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

I'm getting my PhD in philosophy, which involves teaching an Intro Philosophy class to undergrads and doing a lot of reading. My dissertation topic is reasoning in suicidality, so the research I do often spills into psych and neuroscience. I love my schedule, working with the students, and the benefits, but other aspects of the job leave me cold. It remains to be seen whether I'll be able to get a job when I graduate. I'm kind of trying to grow pole into a second career right now, just in case.

I do consulting work as an environmental scientist, primarily helping clients with compliance issues, environmental permitting, managing field efforts for site clean ups, and assessing environmental conditions in the field, as well as technical writing for the all the reports that our fieldwork generates.
If I could do it all over again, I would have gotten in to physical therapy, and as many other physical well being modalities (Pilates, LMT, ART, GYRO) as I could afford! But now I feel stuck. π
