Well next year I'll be a college student.

This is not the same as being unemployed because being unemployed means one should have, or needs, a job but doesn't have one and therefore has no responsibilities and no one is counting on them for anything, etc. (But I am college student age.)

creative director in advertising firm

It was unemployment, but now I'm back in school for the fourth time.

I'm just a clinic receptionist for my dad.

Yep.

Still in High school.

Daycare. xP And I'm supposed to be going back to college next semester.

i work in social media... just biding my time until i can go back to school for another degree.

Well, I'm in 8th grade... and that's closer to high school than it is to elementary!

Well, middle school

Sophomore

Stocking. Trying (hardly!) to build up enough products to set up my etsy shop though. I want to work at home so much more. I've just about given up any hope of going back to school though a business degree would be useful.

18 years old and still in high school damn :P

Seventh semester and will be graduated next year.

Unemployed and have restrictions in getting a job. Due to a born with rare genetic condition. But I've keeping myself busy, going on courses and volunteering as an admin assistant at a number of charities for work experience. My previous one was Foodbank (feeding middle class families in need of emergency food due to domestic violence, losing benefits, etc).

College Student, Cashier, and Waitress. Three jobs. Ugh.

SherlockStark: Wow! That's tough! Congratulations to you for pulling it off. I tried doing that and had to give up on college to keep both my jobs and "independence" instead.

Thanks, laylastepford; it is really tough, but I'm hoping the degree will be worth it. :) What did you study when you were in college?
