OT poll - what do you do for a living?
I have a Bachelors degree in Social Work and I am currently in grad school (after 18 years) going for my Masters in Social Work. I am currently working p/t as a TSS (Therapeutic Support Staff) with special needs children. I have worked in a variety of social service jobs over the years. When I get my MSW I hope to work in VA hospital or clinic or with Oncology patients or possibly Therapy.
I am a stay at home mom to my 4 kiddos. And I wouldn't change it for anything. Before mommyhood, I was a para working with special needs children in elementary schools. Which I am sure I will go back into once all my kids are in school full time.

I work for a consulting/insurance firm... specifically, I'm a systems analyst working on programming software for administration of 401(k) plans. Sometimes interesting, sometimes not...
I can honestly say that never in my life did I think this is what I would end up doing. Years and years ago at the advent of the computer age, my dad worked at a company maintaining membership with the assistance of massive computers (remember those days?). I wish he were alive to see what computers have become... and to see the work I am doing. I believe he'd be so amazed at the technology... and so proud of me.

I know what you mean. I was a psychology and History major who bought a computer to write Term papers. I quickly learned that I did not want to spend my life listening to people ***** about their lives so I stumbled into something that sounded more fun.
Your dad would be amazed at the systems I work on. Our Cloud here probably has more computing power than existed in the 70s.
