I remember when I first started how intimidated I felt--everything looked so elegant.<br /><br />Paula: Sounds like you are proud of the job you do and have a passion for it which is a good thing. Sad though to only get paid once a month.<br /><br />ournextchapter: Yes, a lot of really nice people work there. Any job is better if you like your co-workers.<br /><br />Cyrene: Yes, lots of perks actually.<br /><br />Angel: Health insurance never used to be an issue for me but now it sure is. Cancer is expensive!<br /><br />Old Geezer: We are both looking forward to retirement. Life is funny: seems you either have money but no free time or free time but not much money. <br /><br />Beaded Tail: Working from home would be nice! Our attorneys get to do that if they want, but secretaries have to actually go to the office. <br /><br />Rebecca: You're right about looking for the positive side of things. I'd love to just make money by blogging from home but wouldn't want to have to rely on just that. You are a great blogger and glad it works for you!Karen, author of "My Funny Dad, Harry"http://www.zemeks.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-78459872835752513322010-09-24T08:41:49.933-04:002010-09-24T08:41:49.933-04:00Sounds like you have a nice job!

I'm a pro-blogger, and a freelance writer. It can be stressful, finding enough work sometimes, but I love working from home. I think I will do this post, it looks fun!Rebeccahttp://newyorkrenovator.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-35103069956504117942010-09-23T11:21:20.699-04:002010-09-23T11:21:20.699-04:00Your job does sound like a good one!

I like being home every day with my pets! I work 50+ hours a week during tax season but only 24 hours a week the rest of the year which is nice. Plus I get over 200 hours of vacation time a year! I'm on salary and have health insurance too so all in all it's a good job until I win the lottery!BeadedTailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662802836032167316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-84941888396463750632010-09-23T11:12:37.312-04:002010-09-23T11:12:37.312-04:00I like #7 - Having lots of personal time off with ...I like #7 - Having lots of personal time off with pay.

My job is to be the liaison with health plans with our state's State Child Health Insurance Program - I have been here sixteen years. What I like: knowing that hundreds of thousands of children over the years have gotten good health insurance at $15 a month and can have health childhoods for that reason. What I dislike: getting paid once a month! (there are other things but that's good for one comment).paulakigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08545760422156309218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-69753725934352624322010-09-23T06:31:38.783-04:002010-09-23T06:31:38.783-04:00It does sound like a good job!

I loved the whole atmosphere, especially when I walked across the street to the courthouse and met my aunt for lunch!
