    Bookkeeper, Admin Asst - last job at Fire Dept. Hate Civil service, love the people that chose civil service as their occupation - completely a labor of love. They are all my heroes and always will be. Firemen have hearts of gold.

    I was a legal secretary until I left work to stay home and care for my elderly mom in 2010. She passed away and now I am home with my two sons - who the heck knows what I'll be when I get back into the work force! :)

    The fraud investigator's job sounded like a cool one!
