    I am a 6+ year waffle house cook and I am also a ESL tutor on the side. I have been going to college on and off to get my Major in history and education so i can become a history/social studies teacher. But I also have been studying and working to get my TEFL so i can teach English in China. I plan to go there and teach English while I'm young *I'm 26 i should be ready to go by the time I'm 29 or 30* then when i get old and senile Ill teach history and what not at a ISD here.

    I drink beer. Or was this supposed to be work related?

    I graduated high school (quite the accomplishment, I know) and worked right afterwards, as a bartender, a postman, then followed some classes to be an accountant, successfully and then went back to school for an associate degree. Not sure about the equivalent in the US, it was mostly English, History and Literature classes, which I loved.

    My dream job would have been something more exciting than an office job, like tourism, possibly journalist but I happen to enjoy my routine and being repetitive. A new environment everyday could freak me out, I don't know why.

    Actually you got a point. Cinema critic would have been an awesome job too... in my own language though, my English is probably adequate, but I'm not fluent quite yet.

    I'm an amateur photograph, and an amateur beer drinker, among many other hobbies (worth a different thread) :wink:

    As a Language teacher/"professional" linguistics nerd, I think that Europeans' modesty about the languages that they speak is super endearing yet really puzzling! I would imagine that all you are lacking to be really fluent is a few months somewhere with no option but to speak English. Hobbies can be a good way to get some immersion :wink:

    A manager at a shipping supplies warehouse. Unfortunately I'm currently on nights and it cuts into my beer drinking time majorly. I get so save more though, so that's a plus.

    I buy beer, sell beer and drink beer. Wine and spirits too but who cares about that.
