What do we all do? I'm a criminal psychologist but not working just now due to having the baby, taking a few years off.

    It sounds really really interesting. Carstairs isn't far from me and my work work closely with them although not with the patients.

    It's quite a hard job to get into I believe and was always discouraged from even looking into it any further which is such a shame really. I should have followed my heart and not listened to them in school.

    it's very difficult, there are o many graduates and not enough jobs hence why people end up in youth detention centres, childrens homes etc

    I know, just thought to say it in case people were naming places. If you start trawling the forum (some saddos do!) you may be able to put together real identities!

    I've not been working for a year now as i couldnt go back to work after maternity. My wee boy has behavioural problems so he's been a full time job! I've just got a new job working with the community midwives, supporting pregnant women and new mothers! I cant wait Smiley smile

    My absolute dream job would be a forensic pathologist. Im so into crime/murder like all you other lovely ladies! I blame Tess Geritsen for my pathology fascination ?

    Formerly I was a lawyer specialising in fraud but I am now a company director of a boutique legal resourcing firm, brokering mergers, team moves and senior lateral partner hires. I adore my job. It's hard work but I get a lot out of it, not least that I'm able to maintain a fabulous shoe collection!

    I'm a Reward Manager in Human Resources (think pay reviews, bonus payments and job evalution...) which is ok but not what I am meant to do really... I am an artist and qualified interior designer but it is such a hard industry to get into and for those of you about to tell me to set up my own business I can't, I'm a wimp and a control freak and need to know exactly how much salary I have coming each pay day!!!

    I may do it one day!

    and teehee... I looooove Dexter.... or is that the actor I like... ?

    Hey ladies.

    I work in a college coordinating the advice and guidance we give our students on courses and funding. I always enjoy working with the students but a lot has changed recently with new management - bit of a rough patch we're all riding. Hopefully we'll all still love our jobs at the end of it.

    I work in Social Housing, currently just started work as a Project Manager overseeing a number of improvement schemes to our housing stock, was previously working in the same place as Admin Manager. It's not quite as dull as it sounds, honest!
