It's a Florida-based store, so you probably wouldn't have heard of it. We carry a lot of high-end brands, though. Like LaCoste, True Religion, Rock & Republic, and Juicy Couture.

I'm a senior in high school (kind of), a baby sitter, and a waitress. I go between here (PA) and NYC quite often. I'm trying to find an agent (acting) and get some auditions in. I'd love to have a commercial or something before graduation.

I'm a meeting planner for corporations and associations across the globe. Tons of fun, and I get to bury my nose in contracts and negotiate all day, plus work from home. Love it! I moonlight as a bridal consultant at a nearby dress shop, and am also an aspiring dog trainer.
I'm a "stay at home mom" though I prefer to say I don't work.

Nothing to be ashamed of being a stay at home mom. That is what I am at the moment. Though only due to my daughters ongoing health problems and wanting to give her the best start in life. Be proud of being at home taking care of your family! At least you won't be missing out on seeing them grow up! It was a common thing back in the early days for woman to stay home and take care of their children. So why should anyone be looked down upon for it now? :)

It's not that I'm ashamed I just don't relate to most stay-at-home moms. I don't see being a parent as a job or a calling, it just doesn't make sense to work when I'd only be making 2 or 3 dollars an hour after daycare costs. Plus I'd rather be home playing with her and sleeping in than working. I'm not ashamed of not wanting to work, I hate work.

Yep, being a full-time mum wasn't exactly a 'job' but it was certainly hard work for me! I decided to enjoy it when my kids were small and didn't see the point in paying another person to look after them, then I went back to work when they were older.
Now I'm a university lecturer and wishing I could pack the whole thing in sometimes--the competition is exhausting and there's no time for a private life. My revenge is forum-ing in office time. (Hope they aren't monitoring me here... oops!)

Is "military attache" still a polite way of saying spy? And would you tell me if it was? :p

Now how can I answer this so you believe me? A real spy would deny it. But a non-spy would also deny it. What a predicament. How is this: if I was a spy do you think I would post on the internet using my real name and say where I work? :)
I love my job but it is nothing so glamorous as all that. The most general description I can offer is that we act as a liaison between the US Department of Defense and the host country government.

Currently, I'm a high school student and can honestly say it's the worst job I can (currently) imagine (I know there's probably worse). The worst part about it is that I'm basically trapped in the public cesspool where 80% of the population is made up of complete idiots. My summer job is working at boy scout camps. Hopefully, I'll be able to get my novel or a short story published at some point soon so I don't have to have any other jobs and can focus on school work (and writing).

That still sounds like a sweet job to me.
I spend my days at Uni. If classes aren't taking up my time, friends and my campus pub are. :) Come summer though, I always need to buckle down to get cash for the next school year. :/
