A job at a no kill animal shelter would be nice. I love animals and talking about them is the one time I don't get tongue-tied and stutter over every other word. Not to mention getting to play and exercise them on a daily basis. The biggest downside is I'd probably end up with way to many pets.

If not that than maybe vet tech. I'm considering going to school for it but I'm not sure if they are the ones that euthanize the animals or not because there is no way I'd be able to do that. If they don't then I'll probably forge ahead with that plan.

i like to make things and i like to sell things so I try to make things that I can sell. Also, i do graphic design so i can do whatever I need to make and sell things online It's great. I can arrange for the post office to pick up packages. I'm a happy homebody so the less I go out the happier I am!

Also, I once had a job where I designed mazes and complex dot-to-dots from home. Aside for the constant deadline pressure it was pretty amazing!

hiya Nanner welcome to our cool club
working a labor of love from home is akin to heaven on earth, getting paid to do what one loves to do, what a life. wish i could live that life.

thanks! i am very lucky to have a super supportive spouse that allows me to pursue my obsessions and express myself. My parents kind of warned him lol He is the major bread winner here. Sometimes I am only contributing pin money other times I earn more. Right now I am about 30 days into a new venture. It is teetering in the balance as I wait for the supplies I've ordered. After a frenzied 2-3 weeks getting everything started to wait a week for deliveries is enough to put out the fire. I really want to stick with this and make it happen though.

Those kinds of jobs are available, but librarians are snobs. Most of them believe that if you don't have a MLS (Master of Library Science) degree that you can't possibly understand how a library works. I worked as librarian assistant and information researcher in corporate libraries, who are a little more forgiving of background, but because of so many things being on the internet now, those jobs are few and far between.

I've had primarily good experience with librarians in my 10 years of working at a library. I think it mostly depends on the director and the area they serve (I can see how corporate ones might be very snobby).

I can tell you though, getting a job just shelving would be difficult right now with the state of the economy, many libraries have reduced funding. We've not seen a drop in useage though, if anything its much higher than normal. Partly due to teachers and professors asking students to use off-line/reputable sources for research, I would hazard to guess. We also have e-books, DVDs, and audio books/MP3's, so it has basically caught up with the times.

For me, I've never liked my job much having to work face to face with the public for so long, but it is rewarding to help people find the information they need and use my knowledge of "trivia" to help others. I can also use my skills in computer repair to diagnose and fix the 40+ computers we use. I think without that skill (and the $5k a year I save them in contracting it out) I would have been fired years ago (took me 7 years to get full time as it was).

I've always wanted to be a paleontologist, rocks and fossils, as well as animals have always been an interest of mine, and the aspect of working by myself or with a small team is also appealing. Either that or selling my origami/expertise for a living.
