With this last pregnancy I was unable to work much (too uncomfortable) and haven't been back to work yet. I am also doing my bachelor's degree, only one course to go!! I hope to go into public health when I'm done so I would have less shift work to deal with. But, sometimes I wonder if I'll ever make it back to the workforce with the way things have been going with Allison.

manda40475 05-15-2007, 09:27 PM I work for an HVAC (Heat/Air) Company and my job title is Service Dispatcher, but I do so much more. I schedule calls, handle 90% of the billing, account collections, order parts, and typical secretarial work as well. I have been there two and a half years. I like my coworkers and the job is cake, but it gets frustrating dealing with all the idiots that call in every day. This line of service definitely does not get much respect.
Jobs I held before:
Concessions at local pool as a teenager
Hallmark sales associate
Once Upon a Child - secondhand clothing shop
Data Entry and Administrative Assistant at City Hall in Lexington
SAHM
