What's your occupation/s?
Self-employed Consultant and PT blogger (hey, don't judge me!)
Do you actually enjoy it?
Not much anymore although it has its moments where its fun...pays the bills too.
Where were you before this job?
Astrophysicist -> Research Scientist -> CRM/Analytics whizz in biz -> Independent consultant. During this time also ran a biz making cakes etc for special occasions and to cafes. Not anymore. Just blog now.
What will you be doing in 3 years time?
Who knows? Would be nice to leverage the blog to start a biz around the protein cooking I do. maybe a cafe or books or something. Kitchen beats office anyday. Passionate about health, fitness and nutrition. Not so much about CRM.

I was in sales up until 3 years ago. Good money, great incentives. Had the shits with long hours so enrolled in uni to be a teacher which is something I had always wanted to do, not long left now. Am currently driving buses to pay the bills, easy work, half decent money, lots of overtime. No I won't be here in future, another year and half max until I graduate.

heheshould be back to work next week tho, if the weather clears up.

I officially hate you
For many reasons actually...but this one we'll just say, is the straw that broke the camels back
lol
Nawwww whilst I'd love to think I could do it...I know my bro shoulders wouldn't be enough...and I'd want a pink jumpsuit with a zipper down the front...and a hot pink hard hat....totally inconspicuous as a woman in this field?

What's your occupation/s? Registered Nurse
Do you actually enjoy it? Most of the time, yes. Some parts of the job are frustrating or just plain gross, but it's interesting.
Where were you before this job? Studying, but before that I wasn't doing much. Didn't know what I wanted to do.. eventually decided to go to uni.
What will you be doing in 3 years time? I'm planning to do more study in mental health nursing but I also like intensive care, so maybe working in either one of those areas. ED would be cool too.
