snowfoxrox Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 I have seen threads with why people have chosen their handles, who they cache with pet's, people etc... But I have never seen any that ask what you do for a living when your not **Gasp** doing cache related things (I know ~ as if!) I have seen where people have mentioned being a trucker, working for the gov't etc.. and though how interesting! So here it is your chance to tell us what you do! Me? I work in a children's Hospital and am going to school for my Registered Nursing Degree. Quote Link to comment
