What do you do? (Besides pictures of corse)

Can I buy a vowel?

Yes?

I don't know how that game works.

Really? No Wheel of Fortune? Eh, that's what I get for growing up with only 7 TV channels ;)

I'm a teacher. I taught ESL for a long time in various places, and for the past 10 years, I've been teaching writing and literature at a community college.

Of all the peculiar stuff posted here, this surprised me the most, would never have guessed you to be a teacher :lol:

Huh! It's funny - in "real life" people tend not to be surprised that I'm a teacher, but they do seem to be surprised at other things about me. Apparently, English teachers aren't supposed to like cars, football, cursing, and punk rock music. :lmao:
 
No, we had it. I just never watched. I never understood how it worked and I think I got bored before I ever figured it out. :biglaugh:

Ah, got it :) I always liked word games and crossword puzzles, so it was one of my favorite game shows as a kid. It changed a lot. I remember when the winner in each round would have to spend their money on stuff in the "prize room" - the camera would scan over the prizes and there would be a little window insert showing the contestant as he or she chose the prizes. I so wanted the ceramic Dalmation!

Yeah, we were livin' large! ;)

You don't get to call anyone ELSE "spoiled" when YOUR family had a REMOTE!! :lol:
Seriously, a remote? That hadn't been invented when I was a kid. Actually, we had VARs (Voice-Activated Remotes). Dad would say, "Hey, little bit, change that to channel 3," and I'd get up off the floor and change the channel. :lmao:

We had 4 channels, technically--the big 3 and then a 4th channel that you had to switch a dial to get (UHF? VHF? Anyone remember what the point of that was??)--but the 4th channel rarely, if ever, came in very clear, so we never watched it.

Our TVs were also only black and white displays until I was in college and we finally bought our very first color TV.
 
Well, my JOB, the thing I do in order to keep a roof over my head and food in my tummy, is Transit Information Specialist for our city's public transit system. That title is shorthand for "all the stuff nobody knows how/wants to do". :D I do all the editorial stuff, some of the design stuff (really BIG jobs we send to an outside designer), website maintenance--and I'm also the social media manager and photographer.

My OTHER "job"--my calling, but not my means of support, is women's ministry. I lead the women's ministry at our church, and I speak at other women's ministry events and sometimes lead retreats. I write all my own material, which is really the most time-consuming part.
Then, I also teach Sunday School (not to kids, though--I teach the 75+ year olds), I sing in the choir and I get roped into chairing more committees than I care to talk about. :D

I also still have the "Mom" job, but with both kids now over 21 and not living at home, that's not the full-time job it once was.

Oh, and mostly--I nap and watch sports on TV. American football is my favorite--pro, college, high school, peewee, I don't care, I watch it, except for that awful "indoor league" crap. All other sports are just filler until it's football season again. ;-) Soccer, baseball, basketball, golf...I'll even watch tennis if I have to. Not hockey though--I like hockey okay, but for some reason, can't really stand to watch it on TV.
 
Wow, you're insane, I mean you're awesome!

Thanks so much! Best part are all the stories and history my customers tell me.



I do this all day........

You know when I first saw this I saw "I do this all day" followed by the pictures, and before I got all the way down to the bottom where the explanation was I thought, huh - he attends Nazi Biker rallies all day? Weird. Lol

I didn't mind changing the channel so much, it's when I had to stand next to the TV and hold onto the rabbit ears with a coat hanger in my other hand until Dad's show as over.. yikes.
