    I am just curious... I read these boards so much and love hearing about all your great wedding plans and ideas, but I'd love to know what everyone's job/profession is. I guess as a way to make all of you a bit more "real"! :) And I have a feeling there is a huge variety of careers on here, so I'd love to hear about all the interesting things you Bees do!

    I am a coordinator working in television production for a large television network.

    What do you do?!

    I'm the course manager for a leadership development company.  We have both public & private courses that help individuals and teams cultivate their leadership skills, focus in on what they're passionate about, what their goals are, and what they do that gets in their own way of being successful.

    "Course Manager" basically= logistics girl-- I coordinate all of the public courses that we run.  Prety much from the time a student enrolls I am their point of contact- I send them their pre-course materials, take payments, answer questions, and then from a course admin perspective I also create all the course handouts & materials, order catering, coordinate with the cleaning & groundskeeping staff, shop for supplies, etc.  It takes a lot of organization, but luckily I enjoy that and I get to meet a lot of really interesting people.

    @nzgirl: One of my clients is actually 5 years old and I work with him in his classroom to help him through the day.  It's a challenge for him, but I love that age! Does your student have a one-on-one therapist?

    @GreekGirl: He has a part time teacher aide (morning only) who is great but untrained so she is really just there to help guide him to what we are doing.  I have a RTLB (resource teacher of learning and behaviour - is that the same as what you do?) assessing him, she comes in around once a month but only watches him and gives me ideas to do with him etc.

    I'm a nanny to my 2 nieces and 1 nephew. Its a great job. However after the wedding I will be a stay at home wife since FI's work schedule will interfere with me working.

    I'm a law student, so a poor kid who works for free. Yay! Haha. Thankfully, FI is working now so he helps me in a pinch, and this will *hopefully* pay off some day. I love it, so it's worth it. 

    In the summers I'm a waitress/cocktail server. I'd stayed away from it for an entire year, but with the wedding coming up I feel bad not contributing 'real $' (as opposed to my student loan/COL loans) to the bills. So, back to the apron I go.
