Guess I'm the slacker around here. Well heck, someone has to do that job!
I also work at home (just a walk across the yard), I have a small auto repair shop, that generally has more work then I (as a basicly lazy person) want to do.
Spent the better part of a decade and half with a larger shop and employees (and all the headaches) in the big city. Yeah, it only took an eight days a week effort to keep it moving. Got tired of it, chucked it and moved the business out here to the sticks. Nice and quiet. Anytime I walk in from the shop I can check in.......See what's shaking out here in the nether world of bits and byts.

I work full-time plus some as Lead Senior Payroll Clerk for a family owned company. We pay approx 3,000 people in 15 states. I also write custom reports for all of our departments. Keeps me very busy, and there's always something different going on. I've been through downsizing and mergers and three different software changes so far. We have access to the internet at work, and instead of taking my breaks smoking or yakking in the breakroom, I log on. It is allowed if you don't get too carried away with non-work related internet time.

I spent close to 4 years managing a vet hospital...in many ways a fantastic, interesting job. The personnel side of it was a downer. Managing people, especially young people, these days is difficult.
I left a year ago and help run my BF's electrical contracting business out of our home office. Commercial construction is not so interesting but I now have more time for myself and more time to spend with my dog, which more than makes up for it.
My "boss" is also really understanding when I need time off. He has to be...otherwise he doesn't get dinner.
I work full time as a Office Coordinator at a fertilizer company out in the middle of nowhere Nebraska. I moved here from California about 1 1/2 years ago and there is nothing going on around this area as far as dog training, etc. So when I come to work I log onto the processing system then I log onto Leerburg!! Its my main link to the dog world, dont know what I'd do without it But I sure miss all my dog training friends and all the dog activities in California
i work full time as a policy analyst - so governance work, reviews, reports, that kind of stuff - for a very large public sector pension plan. (which isn't as boring as it sounds, i like my job actually)

I run the office of a wholesale plant grower; I've been in the nursery business off and on for over 10 years, doing jobs that included growing and retail store work. The retail store was on Grand Cayman Island (I did that for 2 years and got a lot of diving in on my time off!)
Then I became a SCUBA instructor and travelled and worked in that industry, in Egypt and Honduras for a few years...
But now, it's back to plants again!
PS the nursery industry is terrible right now, due to the economy; it's very dependent on new home construction, and in Florida there is not much of that anymore...
