What do you do for a living?

[Powpow46]

Wow...you're all so amazing. I work in a privately owned newsagent/off licence.
Minimum wage, but full time and the best job ever, I look forward to working there every day.

 

[Sogdhitalley]

Full time dole bum. This entails letting my kids do whatever the fuck they want, I get my benefits on a Friday and by Monday they're all gone. Most of it up my nose, in my lips or on my face. These benefits never give me enough for nappys, milk, electric and gas though. Cunts. I miss Jezza Kyle and seeing my mates on it most days.

Nothing right now, as my first babies (twin girls) are due in February, and we are walking on eggshells as we waited a long time.
I'm a vascular surgeon, when I'm not too gigantic to get near an operating table.

Financial admin...I’ll be honest though I’ve not actually worked for quite a long time due to severe mental health issues and things that have been going on in my life. I feel such a deep sense of shame and unworthiness, it really effects my self esteem and I feel so...pointless. I hate when anyone asks me what I do, the dentist asked me the other day and I burst into tears I want to return to work but have had a lot of really hard knocks and think it’s going to be really difficult to get my confidence back.

 

[Trolleydollycoffeelover]

Secondary school teacher, so I see the effects some of these influencers have on our young people.

And that’s why I hate it when people thinks we Tattlers are trolls. The influencers are the real trolls with their photoshopped/ plastic bodies and selling their souls for Insta fame. I honestly feel sorry for teens nowadays, I even notice the huge difference between my fellow 80s born peers and my colleagues 10 years younger than me.

I'm 56 and recently found part-time work, after years of unemployment (lack of self esteem ect). I know how difficult it is to summon up the courage, but it can be done.

Was thinking about this today... Know our forum can be thought of as a congregation of "scummy trolls" to the outside world sometimes, but I genuinely think most users here are lovely, educated, and some of the wittiest people I've had the fortune of speaking to!

Just wondering what everyone does for a living?

I'm a secondary teacher, specialising in economics.

That makes me feel so sad it was bad enough when my age group were at school, I remember we all wanted to be skinny and would be on diets but faces weren’t such a focus. What are their career aspirations?
