Well here goes.......

I work full time for a Harbour Master in a busy harbour office doing admin and everything else!

I run an online shop which is my own business

I run a retail shop at weekends which is linked to my own business

I am soon running a course which will take up every Monday evening

I fit in spiritual readings somehow...? And sometimes Reiki sessions...?

.....And.....:dft005:

I am now branching out into psychic parties and house blessings and stuff!!

Hmmmm......now I come to put it all down I realise just why I am shattered most of the time and my other half thinks he is single again!

Never mind it is all good fun but hopefully things will calm down soon.

I am going before I think of something else to add to the list that I have forgotton! :rollaugh:

Hi, I just looked at your website and see you are based in Totnes - I love Totnes, spent many, many holidays down in that area (actually we were based in Salcombe but we used to venture out to Totnes most days). Are you in the Harbour Master's Office there? We used to do a lovely boat tour from Totnes to Dartmouth going through some of the most beautiful country ever seen!

Love

I am a Holistic massage therapist specialising in Aromatherapy - I try and work this around my husbands shifts and my 2 young children

I am also practising to be a lady who lunches - my Hubby thinks I try too hard - I think I need more practice

I also work part time in a police contact centre - I used to be a radio op but went back a couple of years ago as a call taker on a bank basis
This helps pay for all the courses I want to do which are many and expensive

I love both my jobs but not very good at the housewife one - house looks like a tip, I should get off of here but - life is too short and dust always returns

Hi Lotusflower :wave:

I work at Torquay harbour. I have also done the boat trips from Totnes - Dartmouth (stunning) and all around the coastline in this area. I am just getting into boating for the first time in my life. I don't have a boat though I hasten to add!!

Salcombe is a nice place I have to say. Good to hear from you!

Interesting thread this one.:dft012:

It was a while since anyone last posted so I thought I would continue.
I have been working for Royal mail the last seven years. I have realised I was not born to be a postman forever. It is really hard work although I love chatting to people on my round. I went to college a couple of years ago as I realised (out of the blue! ) that I wanted to become a reflexologist. Did my anatomy and physiology and then did swedish massage ( reflexology fully booked at the time). I am so glad I did this , done mobile massage , homevisits, in spare time since I qualified. Although finding it hard to establish a good clientbase. Will study more to be able to offer more treatments. One day I would love to work just for myself doing the things I love .:rolleyes:

What a great question, im always intrigued by what other people do.

Im an accountant by day and I have trained in holistic massage, which im currently not doing anything with but I have spent the last 6 months running my own part time smoothie business. Mum to two black cats, sweetpea and pudding and a wonderful girlfriend to my long term partner. I feel i need to get back to my local church and develop my physic skills. I have been told previously that i have healing abilities but Ive never followed it up.

I would love to work with children, but im unsure of how to go about it as i can't give too much time. I would to work at a childrens hospice or childrens ward.

What a variety of occupations on here!! I always struggle to know what to say when someone asks what I do. I spend my days running my business making soaps and skincare and doing all of the paperwork that goes along with it! Previously I worked in banking.

I am a carer in the community. I help people with tasks they cannot manage to do themselves (due to their disability, illness, etc..) and provide support. This can be anything from popping in for a chat, making a cuppa, doing shopping for the client .... to assisting with personal care and medication. It is a rewarding job, but because of a shortage of carers, it makes things difficult when you have to fit so many clients in during the morning and can be very tiring sometimes. At the moment I have quite a few rude clients which doesn't make things easy. On the other hand I have looked after some lovely people who have made a big impact on my life. A lady I looked after last year had cancer. She made me realise that I should live out my goal of going to college and I promised her I would do. The Lady sadly passed away and I didn't get a chance to thank her for her encouragement. I promptly enrolled on the next course for A&P which I completed and also Indian Head Massage.
I am hoping to start my mobile IHM business soon, alongside the care work.
I would like to offer a day at a local hospice as soon as I have a bit more experience. I am also Mother, housewife etc etc:)
