I get to meet all kinds of people (many people would do anything to meet some of the celebrities that I meet) and get invited to the best hotels and places in the world for the conferences, and of course free room, boarding and Lodging and travel-I am a writer.

I'm a travel consultant. Like you, I get to meet all kinds of people who have different needs. I get airline, resort and hotel discounts or sometimes even free tickets and hotel vouchers.

I also get to meet a variety of people, but every day people. I've helped women feel empowered in their lives and feel more confident. I've started traveling (I didn't get to do it for over 15 years!) plus I what I make in 10 hours equals my old 40 hour a week job! We have a fantastic convention every year, where we get the chance to win cash, cars, jewelry, trips -- you name it! I get to party, dress up and have fun at my job and everything is a tax write off now! I'm a personal consultant for Slumber Parties.

wow glad to meet you where doyou write, for a magazine or a paper, I would love to know aout you more, I wanted to be a writer too but got married instead, I do write poetry for my own pleasure. His uncle is a writer and he keeps publishing hi books too and he has asked me for my poetry many times but I think its better this way. I joined mass communication course but gave it up when I got married oin between never completed it. It must be fun to meet celebrities, how many have you met?

Yes I do write for a number of publications, in some I have my own specific columns too. I have lost track of the celebrities I have met. They are as human as we are. Thanks for your response.

Sounds like your job brings you great satisfaction and it should, having the specifics that you mentioned.
I'm also satisfied with my profession, being an IT Helpdesk, getting to support people to use their computers. I've allways wanted to be helpful, reliable, i wasn't thinking exclusively on money but satisfaction regarding my job.

My profession enables me to meet different kinds of people through service. It allows me to know them more personnally and at the same time help them out with their legal concerns. Mine is a multifaceted profession because we have to be a doctor, an investigator, an engineer, a scientist, an artist, even a criminal to fully carry out our functions. It allows lawyer like us to experiennce the different facets of life by defending the rights and liberty of other people.Its a very challenging career, self-satisfying and one that really gives so much fulfillment.
