OT: What does everybody do for a living?
Re: OT: What does everybody do for a living?
I am a senior engineer for a TV post production facility in New York. Am 66 and probably will not retire in this life. Keep busy woodworking with my son, make pens for veterans, turn odd shaped wood into round pieces on my lathe. Volunteered as an EMT for 17 years, still ride occasionally. And, spend as much time as possible with my four grandchildren.
There is only one way to achieve happiness on this terrestrial ball, And that is to have either a clear conscience, or none at all.

Retired for 2 years....was a high school library clerk for 25 years. I was too tired to go any longer for full pension benefits. Hmmm, wonder why?

Electrical engineer.. It makes me a total pain in the ass about "Why did this number go up?" and "How that this affect anything?" - kinda have to understand what's going on in my Bi-PAP.

I'm an educator in a Title I school, currently teaching Reading to 5th & 6th graders. Love, love, love my kids. There's not much better than watching kids who thought they couldn't do it learn to read. School started on Monday, and now that I'm 29 (actually, my 29th birthday is old enough to drink! Ha!) I'm TIRED; this going back to school has seriously interfered with my nap time. So it's off to maskland for me! Good night!

Retired electrical engineer. Designed electronic instrumentation for heavy equipment until I got into management. Designing was more fun but didn't pay nearly as much.
My wife and I are now living full time in a motor home and wandering around seeing the country.

I have worked as a financial worker for the county human services office for most of my adult life. I currently process applications for chemically dependent, mentally ill or developmentally disabled adults who live in adult foster homes or board and lodge facilities, and disabled or elderly living in assisted living facilities or nursing homes.
Re: OT: What does everybody do for a living?
I've been a casualty insurance claims adjuster for 38 years and am counting the days until retirement. I can't afford to retire until I'm eligible for Medicare, so I've got 2 1/2 years to go. Now that I've adjusted to a CPAP and mask, and am taking Nuvigil, I'm feeling pretty good and just may make it.
I have fibromyalgia in addition to OSA. I take Lunesta at bedtime.
