Women who like/love their job, what do you do for a living?

29 comments
  1. I’m a freelance journalist and podcaster specializing in sex/sexuality. Mainly I write about sex toys for a living, although there’s a bunch of other related stuff I do as well.

  2. I’m a housewife now (for the past 11 years) and I love it, obviously, but the actual W2 job I enjoyed the most was working in a garden center. I’ve done it twice so far and it’s just so cathartic to be able to be amongst pretty plants and whatnot.

  3. Pediatric private duty nurse. Think almost like a babysitter but for kids with medical issues. I love it!

  4. I’m a Business Analyst. I have a great team, great manager, I work from home, my job is relatively easy, and we have good pay and great benefits.

  5. Public health nurse practitioner with a focus on HIV prevention. Truly love serving the public.

  6. I like being a Software Engineer. Never liked CS in school but computers are a great tool for solving problems. Healthy work life balance and great pay too.

    Also we’ve got indoor plumbing which hasn’t been the case for all of my jobs.

  7. Marketing copywriter for a real estate brokerage. I mostly love that my team is all women who are in their 20s to 60s. Real estate as a subject matter is pretty great, too. I love architecture and interior design, so I get to look at a lot of pretty homes. Just worked up some copy for a $3.7M house that’s just stunning. I’ve also learned the industry language, so I can walk into any open house as a lookee-loo and know how to blend in with actual buyers.

  8. Corporate Strategy, sounds dull I know but I like it! My manager is great, I work from home and get to take on projects I’m interested in.

  9. I’m a forensic accountant working in financial investigations

    It’s interesting and I’ve definitely found my niche but I specifically love this particular job as I’m in a team with a great culture and the loveliest colleagues. Makes all the difference!!

  10. Wage Clerk & HR Administrator. Most of my job is routine which I love, and every now and again something exciting like a full failure of the payroll system happens just to spice things up a bit.

  11. I’m a physician assistant
    I love it.
    Been in orthopedics for 10 years. Emergency medicine before that.
    I get to see patients, care for them, but at the end of the day the buck stops with a physician as does all the weight and stress that goes along with that.

    I don’t work weekends or holidays. I take no call. My student loans are paid off.
    I have 7w vacation, sick time I use when my kids or myself are sick- without guilt, good benefits, and I have worked with the same attending for 10 years and we’re like siblings at this point. He respects my medical opinions and knows I know what I don’t know and when to defer to him. He knows I won’t endanger patients.

    I am paid well. I spend my free time with my family not thinking about work. I take every single minute of my vacation. My family travels frequently.

    I have zero regrets.

  12. I’m a doctor of linguistics and I work in higher education management, developing strategies to improve the quality of adult education.

  13. I work for a hedge fund and I love it! Lots of flexibility with schedule, plenty of travel and great co-workers.

  14. I had a flamenco dance school for over 20 years, I recently moved again though and I just teach privately. I loved to dance so I made it my job

  15. Barn animal caretaker and I love my job.

    I dislike the low pay & lack of benefits for the physical labor involved though.

  16. I assist people with obtaining medical licensing. I work specifically with those who have criminal backgrounds. Help them obtain documentation, listen to them when they’re in tears and terrified they’ll be denied, help them locate their documents when a court is closed down and absorbed by a different court, help correct errors on their backgrounds and review the info provided and prepare their files to be reviewed by our higher ups so we can get a decision whether to issue the license.

    I love my job and the team I work on.
