    Chemgoddess https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cool.gif &nbsp; It's not so bad in the small batches we make in the labs, ie <5000g. The fluoroelastomers aren't as pungent as many other rubbers! I had a blast with some HNBr trials in the last few months – and that's a different smell altogether. 

    I used to work (eons ago) in a spray drying facility and that had some of the worst smells ever! The ethanol plant wasn't too great either https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_puke_r.gif

    Good thing the pole studio smells awesome!

    Well, up until I moved, I was in antibody manufacturing, but I have since left that field and am back to the simple life of an office worker. I liked my biotech job in general, but I didn't like being the cause of so many animal deaths.

    I'm a CPA.  I work for a government contractor as a management consultant.  Very dry, boring work but it pays the bills. 

    I work in a very conservative industry, so I only told maybe 5 or so people I work with.  But anyone who follows me on instagram knows (so add another 5 or 10 coworkers to that).  LOL.  It's hard to keep it a total secret when it's something I'm so passionate about and proud of.  So far the reactions I've gotten from coworkers have been pretty positive.  I even turned out a couple of them!  https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

    I love the diversity of everyone's backgrounds. Goes to show all the naysayers how talented and intelligent we are as a community. There is no "pole dancer type."

    I'm a concierge during the day, freelance publicist, singer/actor/dancer, pole instructor, writer

    Whew! I also worked in journalism for several years.

    I'm a civil engineer working at a water utility. I'm also a writer with a series of four books out and working on the next one. Hopefully someday I'll be able to say I'm a writer first and an engineer second. 🙂

    I am a retired nurse and semi retired dancer. My job now is to be my husbands alarm clock . Since we both sleep through alarm clocks.I am a night owl by nature. So I spend my nights sewing and my mornings getting my husband off to work and then I get to play with my horses and dogs . Not very exciting but I can not complain, it is very peaceful.

    I work for our local tax collector/dmv office. I'm a clerk so I process dmv car registration renewals, property tax payments, and I do vehicle title transfers all day. I'm constantly sitting so that's a downside, but hey it pays the bills. 🙂

    I’m a licensed civil engineer who specializes in ecological restoration- I left the consulting world last spring to teach engineering to high school kids at a nearby math and science magnet school. I’m also a registered guide and wilderness first responder, and I own a hunting/fishing lodge that I run during the summer months.
    This fall, I’m also going to start teaching pole at one of the local dance studios.
