    I'm an RN and love nursing but having some burn-out issues.
    I need a lower stress job. Right now I'm not working. I have my Bachelor's but need a Master's to teach. I'd like to do that.

    I have been a research scientist and an In-Vitro Fertilization technician. Right now I am working on my next career, a Funeral Director. Does it means that I will be a grown space?

    I'm a degreed accountant. For my day job: I am the office manager/accountant for a local farming company owned/operated by the 3rd & 4th generations of a farming family. For my 2nd job: I have my own accounting services business with clients I do work for. I've worked in accounting for almost 30 years, in private industry & in public accounting. I love what I do, who I work for, & enjoy going to work every day.

    When I retire I want to be a professional gift wrapper. Really! I love gift wrapping & can just see myself set up in the corner of a boutique shop making pretty gift wrapped packages for people. Of course, now that I have started quilting it may throw a glitch in my retirement plans. :D

    I work full time for one of the largest electronic component distributors in the world. Currently I am a Sr. Product Manager for the Military Connector group in the interconnect, passive and electromechanical division of our company. Previous to this position, I was Product Management Specialist for the design center where we designed and built boards; it was an interesting experience working for a group of engineers...ugh! Hope to stay here (god willing) until retirement..several years to go yet :(

    I am a stay-at-home mom with 1 1/2 and 3 1/2 year old kids. I love it! In my spare time, I sew samples for a quilt shop and occasionally teach classes there. :) I busy myself with my children, housework, and quilting.

    I was a journalist (reporter, then editor) for more than 30 years before retiring at age 55 to enjoy life. Now I take care of husband and Tippi the Pug---and granddaughter Eris when I get the chance. My mom, who had Alzheimer's lived with me for a number of years after I retired. Now, I sometimes wonder where the time goes....
