    Have owned my own LQS for 25 years. I have never thought of it as a career, but since it is what I have done the longest, I suppose it is my career.

    No occupation just jobs. Sales clerk, bank teller and cleaned house for others. Now I work part time driving a 16 seat bus that transport the elderly and disabled to work, appointment or anyplace else they need to go. I've worked here longer then any other job and I like it better then any other job I have had.

    Interesting list of occupations shown here. I was a high school teacher for 26 years before opting for early retirement and becoming a full time wife and mum.

    Retired now, but formerly a Biology/Chemistry teacher for 12 years, then secondary school counselor for 18 years. Love my job, but RA caused me to have to retire after 30 years.
