    Alright folks, get cracking!!!


    What is your occupation for a living?

    Is what you're doing the profession you would have dreamed to be in?

    If not, is it in the same field?

    Did you go to college?

    If so did complete college or drop out?

    If you dropped out, for what reason?

    Is there still a small part of you that wants to go back to college and pursue what you may have once wanted?

    Are you self employed or not?

    Do you hate/love your job?
    How much do you earn a year?

    Do you somehow feel that one day you'll be rich?

    If you are self employed and on a salary of over $70,000 a year: Did you know in your gut, know that you'd make this money one day OR did you just hope for the best/get lucky after a lot of hard work?

    If you are allowed to have unrealistic expectations, what would you like to be?

    How much potential energy/skill/talent do you feel as if you have going to waste?

    What is your occupation for a living?
    not saying here.

    Is what you're doing the profession you would have dreamed to be in?
    i never really had a dream job, i've always been pretty clueless on what i wanted to do with myself. but it is the job i eventually decided on and went to school for.

    n/a

    Did you go to college?

    completed

    If you dropped out, for what reason?
    n/a

    Is there still a small part of you that wants to go back to college a pursue what you may have once wanted?
    there's a small part of me that wants to go back, just because i enjoy learning. but i already have the degree that corresponds to the career i want. i did go back to get it though, i originally graduated with a stupid degree that i never used.

    not

    Do you hate/love your job?
    i like it very much.

    How much do you earn a year?

    Do you somehow feel that one day you'll be rich?
    i doubt it. above average maybe if i'm lucky, but rich is pretty unlikely.

    If you are self employed and on a salary of over $70,000 a year: Did you know in your gut that you'd make this money one day OR did you just hope for the best/get lucky after a lot of hard work?
    n/a

    What is your occupation for a living?
    I develop eLearning. Lots of graphic design and learner analysis, a little programming.

    Is what you're doing the profession you would have dreamed to be in?
    I wanted to be an English teacher. I guess I teach! Sort of...

    If not, is it in the same field?
    It is a bit of a stretch.

    Did you go to college?
    Yup! Went to a huge state school.

    If so did complete college or drop out?
    Completed my degree. College was a lot more interesting than High School (for me at least).

    If you dropped out, for what reason?
    N/A

    Is there still a small part of you that wants to go back to college and pursue what you may have once wanted?
    I still want to go back to college. I want to own my own business one day (Not sure doing what lol).

    Are you self employed or not?
    I wish! One day...

    Do you hate/love your job?
    It is an interesting job, but really stressful. I do contract work so I have to move between positions at big companies all the time. Never really get to build a network of friends.

    How much do you earn a year?
    I make enough to live on without too many complaints. Less if I take a vacation, more if I work overtime (yuck...)

    Do you somehow feel that one day you'll be rich?
    Nope, but I think that one day I will be able to retire (or at least I hope so!)

    If you are self employed and on a salary of over $70,000 a year: Did you know in your gut, know that you'd make this money one day OR did you just hope for the best/get lucky after a lot of hard work?
    N/A

    If you are allowed to have unrealistic expectations, what would you like to be?
    I guess it would be to invent something really innovative.

    How much potential energy/skill/talent do you feel as if you have going to waste?
    I feel like I am pushed to my limit talent/skill/energy wise.
