I am at the point in my life where I am thinking about a career. I was wondering what different people here do for a living? Do you enjoy it? And how did you 'find your way' to your career?

My husband is a programmer. He found his way when his father enrolled him in a computing school because he thought that was a good idea. Turns out he was right. My husband loves programming, and always carries a computer with him. He is the best programmer I have ever met.

I do not have a career 'per se'. I studied business administration at the University but I have always worked as a secretary. In my current job I have performed a lot of different tasks: customer service, SEO, manager... I like it because I am always learning smething new.

I'm a cross between a graphic designer and a web developer. I get to work from home a fair bit, which is a definite perk. :-)
