Copywriter. Marketing, promotional and publicity materials mostly for nonprofits. Lots of fundraising appeals. Self-employed.

The work's a little dry but essentially, my time is my own.

Seriously, do you mean Christina??!! I'm sure that wasn't any fun for you, but I think that's really interesting. Though I'm bummed if it is her, I always thought she'd be kind of nice, probably because "Beautiful" is such a nice song. I should have known better, it's all marketing!

That sounds like a pretty fun job actually.

She has an awesome voice, one of my favorites.

But I heard she can be a biatch.

After decades of miserable, horrible, stressful jobs in hospitals and drug companies, when hubby took an early retirement from the corrections department a few years ago (very luckily with benefits for both of us), we decided to swap money for time and happiness and I quit my job too. Fortunately, my old boss talked me into working part-time as a consultant, so now still I work occasionally, but from my chair in my PJs. I review clinical data on patients in drug safety studies required by the FDA, basically trying to make sure the pharmaceutical companies aren't killing you with their legal drugs.

When I was downsized in January last year I told myself that I'm not getting any younger I also figured time was worth more than money.

I was OK with being a job coach until it messed with my time.

i'm a federal undercover officer. they pay me to go on tour and talk to people like yourselves and find information.

I am a Computer Programmer at a University in Upstate New York (Capital region)
