Bean Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 I am a Chartered Accountant. I spend my days analysing figures and doing all kinds of reporting to Group Management. Pretty cool. And then, just for kicks, I am also a CFP and do this in my spare time. Quintessential nerd? Quote Do not worry if you have built your castles in the air. They are where they should be.

LRB Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 I'm an attorney. I read small print for fun. I like untangling legislation, rules, and regulations (and know the differences between the three). Tax was one of my favorite subjects in law school.Right now, I'm in-house at a publisher and trade-membership organization. Not super-nerdy, but not the coolest job either.

Sydnie Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 I'm currently unemployed, but up until then I was a makeup artist working for a cosmetics company. No nerdiness there. Blech.I'm currently trying to get a clerical or secretarial job ANYWHERE while I wait very impatiently to hear back from the job I really want: 9-1-1 Dispatch for the Sheriff's Office here. Went in a couple days ago for a "voice stress test" (the machine fascinated me haha) which is very similar to a polygraph, but none of the crazy hookups. Eventually I want to be in the military and a cop... Still not too nerdy. Quote Fitocracy! | Running Trainer | Facebook | Twitter | Current Challenge Blog! Pain is weakness leaving the body.
