I'm a Corporate Pastry Chef by day in charge of menu research and development and production.
I work to support my pole classes. Lol! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

very interesting exchange from everybody…. I work as Admin Officer for an EU Association in the domain of science project management and collaboration. I have the occasions to travel in EU for meetings and visit different places.

I'm a doctor. I work in a community health center in a rough neighborhood where I live and am associate faculty at the med school as well. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I studied engineering physics and started working with handset antennas after the university. Now I work with power amplifier design for radio base stations.

I love this thread!
I'm currently in uni studying Dentistry, in a few weeks I'll finish my 2nd year and there will only be 3 more left to get my Master's degree! I'm still thinking, where I'd like to specialize in for my PhD, and right about now I'm thinking either oral surgery or orthopedic dentistry.
I'm also thinking of getting a degree in Choreography because I love dancing and I KNOW I'd be a good dance teacher!

Full-time Social Worker. Currently work with the homeless, placing them into appropriate accommodation and helping those at risk of homelessness to maintain their current arrangements to avoid them losing their accommodation. Wouldn't mind changing fields though, the hopelessness of working with too many people with not enough accommodation or resources is very emotionally draining!

Awesome thread. It’s really interesting to see what everyone does here.
My career has been a little bit all over the place. I started at a bank writing policy and operating manuals after getting my masters in international relations and then quickly focused on translating antimoney laundering and anti terrorist financing policies to our manuals. Somewhat irritated at the privacy invasion I was supporting, I got into privacy and started a certificate in privacy law. Then I spent 6 months working in a horrible office doing work I loved until I bailed for my current easy but unrewarding job in a federal government economic development agency. I’m now entertaining an offer that would get me back into privacy and access to information with the provincial government.
Do any of you discuss pole with coworkers? Only the admin assistant at my current job knows that I pole, as she’s pretty cool. Otherwise, I just refer to my “dance class” or some such. I think attitudes are still such that I’d be judged for it unfairly by some coworkers.

@KuriKat: I tend not to tell about pole. Only three people (I think!) in the house where I work (>500 employees) know for different reasons. Not that I think it would be a problem if people knew really, but it does feel awkward to talk about it with collegues. It's not like you say "I play tennis" and people replies "ok, cool" and that's it. If you say "pole" then a discussion always will follow and even if it's just out of pure curiosity I just don't feel too comfortable. If I tell it's between four eyes and I would never want to shout it out in a group (at work at least), if I didn't know the involved people very well.
It's a bit of a pity since I'm so proud of what I can do on the pole, but everything has good and bad sides. For exampel, how many sports could be practiced alone at home whenever you feel like it? That's a big advantage with pole compared to many other work-out forms in my opinionhttps://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif. I tend to remember that whenever I feel annoyed about that I "can't tell".

My work colleagues know.. I figured that Anyone who works with street sex workers has to be open minded enough to accept I pole! 🙂

I teach college English (literature, writing, and research, mostly) during the day and pole fitness at night!

Big Shocker here…I am a chemist! I started out in pharmaceutical and moved into drug discovery. When my company folded I worked at Gojo (Purell and hand soaps) and now work in inorganic testing low level metallic impurities in ceramics used for chemical manufacturing.
BTW, the name was a nickname given to me and a college mate…I was chemgoddess1 and she was chemgoddess2!

Which is also the reason I am such an analytical geek on the forums. It is in my blood!

I love how all these beautiful, talented polers are also obviously smart, savvy women who have all got it going ON. Y'all are awesome!
I'm an editor for a major international educational publishing firm. I rearrange commas all day. :>)
I was recently hired by my studio to teach pole, so I'm now teaching pole conditioning and beginner pole classes.

Great thread!
I'm a stone tile artist during the day and a pole dance instructor in the evenings, and I love both my jobs! They let me indulge my passions of art, power tools and pole. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif
