Spouse, GF/BF, significant other professions?

[2Stupid2Duck]

My wife works in superannuation - she is the complaints officer.

HEY Lumi - I run the juvenile prison system in Qld. Shhhh....

my bf's a student. he's studying criminal justice, just like me. when he graduates he's going to be in the army for a bit (he's another ROTC guy... not sure how i keep ending up with those :-?) and after that he's thinking about a job with the FBI.

Miti , I hear ya there on the stories from your other half's job .. scary stuff ....

He's been accepted into college and is starting in September next year ...studying to be a chef. By the end of his course he'll be able to run his own restaurant ...
Which is jusssssst slightly less dangerous a job then the one he's in now

My wife is a loan processor. Nothing too exciting about that. Except that she makes a whole lot more than me

 

[Big Mike]

My lover spends lots of its time holding computer mouses, pens and such.

My girlfriend is a student, studying forestry.

 

[Bokeh]

My bf is a student... programming & design and some other computer stuff.

Ouch... no offense but i would tell him to switch majors while it's still easy. The following fields are being outsourced to cheap labor countries like India at truly alarming rates, and in this order:

"Anything" in the tech field
Call centers (yes I know some are coming back due to language issues etc)
Accounting
Architecture
Finanace
Radiology (reading of x-rays; these doctors used to make TONS and now they're almost obsolete)
Loan processing
Basically, anything not tied to locale

Take it from me, I'm very, very up on this and I've been in IT for about 10 years now and am in the upper eschelon of software developers. I've left my last 3 jobs in an effort to dodge offshoring. Now, my current company (Fidelity) is talking about offshoring 90% of their software development. I guess I can run but I can't hide

And certainly with Bush in power now, it's open season on American citizens.

P.S. Core I just love your avatar!! Xena RULES! What a capture that is.

Oh, and my wife works at the Macaroni Grill, and studying for nursing, a career immune to outsourcing.

Ryan Gracie: Wow :?

Thanks for the warning, but that is what he loves to do and won't give up I believe. Plus he is doing fine ... before he even went to the school he made some jobs to few people and still does.
