My background is in Administrative and Office Management...my husband was in the military and so I was always learning something new....But I must say, I have the best job right now with censoring the movies that come into our compound...always been a lover of movies and now I get to watch them all day...one draw-back...I have to watch films I wouldn't normally watch....but that's okay...I love the no pressure of this job...

My husband is a white collar crime investigator for Saudi Aramco...

Hi,

I presently own a franchise for Management Recruiters International. My website is www.thesciantgroup.com. Before I was a headhunter, I lived and worked in Europe in full scale production, live shows, concerts and casting for tv. And before that I worked in publishing for 12 years as a Marketing Director. I like to reinvent myself every 5 years or so.....

I am an RN. I work full time in obstetrics, 11pm to 7am, and I love my job! Nothing better than cuddling with a newborn and getting paid for it!

I just recently went back to work after taking 2 years to be a SAHM to my 4-year old and almost 2-year-old twins. Now I am a social worker working with families who have had their children removed by Protective Services. The job is ok (actually I like it more than I originally thought I would) but the people that I work with are AWESOME! I love going to work! Before babies, I was the Director of a Sexual Assault Program north of Austin. I liked that job too, but it was too much with a special-needs infant (now my 4-year-old handfull). My husband is a police officer, works 11p-7a.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
