What do you do for a living?

Interesting thread!

I currently work part-time as a zookeeper at a science center - my job is to take care of deer, river otters, livestock, exotic and native birds, reptiles, amphibians, marine life, and lots of snakes! I've worked at the same place (minus a few years off to do some other jobs and to be a stay-home mom) since 1994. I also do a fair bit of program presentation and some exhibit design.

I have worked as an intern for a few wildlife biology projects (wolves, birds) but eventually had to get a job that payed.

I'm a retired R.N. as of 0700 7/31/05 (after 28 years of med/surg, ortho, rehab, head injuries, & MRDD.) My husband found our 15 young hens/Henspa on Craigslist (with LOTS of extras) for $350. fall of '09. He retired from DuPont (after 30+ yrs) this year. I am sooo grateful to be staying home & playing 'sliced bread frisbee' with these sweet girls'. I learn so much from this site.

Well I don't really work for a living but I guess "merits" could count?

I work for merits by do a part-time job of finishing my home-work and school-work, attending to the doggie "poops" and doing tasks around our home. I also walk dogs, and have become a 'sitter of 48 chickens....could I have a better life!

great thread

There seem to be a huge number of caregivers on BYC but i can't say that is surprising when you consider our mutual addiction.


I work at home full time assembling/ inspecting/ degating plastic parts for a local plastics plant.
