Good Occupations For My Day

Is Special Education a good occupation?

I work in this field and yes it can be rewarding. But here is the main thing that is constantly said at my work. ( I work with a state school and we house over 250 clients) IT is a a labor of love. PERIOD. The pay is awful, they are the last to receive money from the government. It can be extremely stressful, especially if you already have children of your own.
When I took the job I knew it was going to be a challenge, because I had never worked with people with mental disabilities. I have been working there for over 5 years, and I have seen many employees come and go. It is not a job for everyone and they learn really quick whether it is for them or not. With all that being said the only people who stay are the people who love the work and ESPECIALLY love the clients. I know you wanted mainly teachers to answer, but a lot of your students might come from a facility like mine. I am a psychologist/behavior tech. To be honest I don't like my job and surprisingly I am still there. Reasons have to do with the location i live in as well as the benefits. Again pay isn't great but my benefits are better than any other in town. I have days where I like my job and i feel important (especially to the individual) those are the rewarding days. Yet most of the time I feel i don't have the patience to be there and I know i have to work extra hard to be happy cheery. Best thing to do is volunteer with some of these individuals first and see if it is the population for you. The best of luck

Is chemical engineering a good occupation?

Well, I am biased on this since I spent my career as a chemical engineer and I loved it. I am still an engineer, love to understand how things work, learn new technology, etc. All the geeky things engineers are known for typically. Yes, it is great occupation. When you get your degree, you will have been introduced to many forms and types of engineering so you see you are not stuck with only working with chemicals and separation processes. The field of opportunity is broad and you still have many choices. Even if you make a mistake with your first job, don’t be discouraged, there will be others more than likely. You can probably persuade a new employer that you are capable of doing something different. Or perhaps the new job is with the same employer just in a different capacity.What is not to like about a career choice that gives so many choices, so many possibilities. All of them good. You might be in environmental engineering, working on water pollution control, or you might go into computer process control, often called DCS or Distributed Control Systems, or Instrumentation specification, design, etc. Or maintenance support for process equipment since you understand how it is supposed to work and can help diagnose the problem and the solution.You could be a sales engineer for a equipment manufacturer, a heat exchanger company for instance, or a pump manufacturer or a valve manufacturer. Or like some of my contemporaries, you could become an HR recruiter, or work for the patent office.All of these working as a chemical engineer. Pretty amazing stuff.Enjoy.

How do I write my father's occupation if my father is dead?

My father is also dead, if I had to fill in a form which needed to know his occupation I would put in his usual job/profession.But I am an adult and usually don’t get asked what my father or mother do. I’m guessing you are a minor?If you are filling in application forms for study then it may be best to write the occupation your father had and in brackets state that he is now deceased.Perhaps ask the contact person on the form what the best way to answer the question is in your case.

What were the occupations of the people who died in the 1996 Everest Disaster?

5 people died on the South face of the mountain that day, with 3 more people dieing on the North face. The book "Into Thin Air" only covers the events of the South face in detail.

Adventure Consultants group
Rob Hall - guide, had a great reputation for climbing/guiding on Everest
Andy Harris - guide who worked for Hall
Doug Hansen - postal worker, second attempt at climbing Everest
Yasuko Namba - Japanese female climber, moderately experienced climber

Mountain Madness group
Scott Fischer - guide, less experienced than Hall, but still skilled and had climbed other Himalayan mounts (can't remember if he had climbed Everest before)

Rob Hall and Scott Fischer were the leaders of their respective expeditions and both made poor choices during the day. Personally, I would find it difficult to use the story as an example for lessons in management. They were making decisions at an altitude over 26,000 feet, where your brain is being deprived of oxygen. Even though they had supplemental oxygen, your brain gets affected and once that happens it's really easy to make bad choices.

Rob Hall made some poor decisions about when to turn around. It's very important to be moving back down Everest as early as possible because the weather is more likely to turn bad in the afternoon and evening. To complicate their climb, two groups of climbers who had previously agreed to wait started their ascent at the same time. This is bad because there are several parts of the climb that bottleneck, where people can't pass each other.

The climbers who had managed to stay on schedule made it back to camp on time, but others got severely delayed and still more got stuck on the top when a blizzard hit the mountain. Blizzards on Everest are no joke, with winds reaching hurricane levels most of the year. It can be difficult to predict when bad weather will hit and even the most experienced person can be caught off guard.

The smallest mistake can kill you on Everest and sometimes, even if you don't make a mistake, the mountain can kill you. Using it as an allegory for management seems at best to be massive hyperbole.

Reaction on japanese occupation?

(m)


Japan surrendered to the Allies on August 14, 1945, when Emperor Hirohito accepted the terms of the Potsdam Declaration. On the following day, Hirohito announced Japan's surrender on the radio. It was V-J Day, the end of World War II, and the beginning of a long road to recovery for a shattered Japan.

At Potsdam, United States President Harry Truman, British Prime Minister Clement Attlee and Soviet leader Josef Stalin had agreed on how the Allied occupation of the Japanese Empire would be carried out. The Soviet Union would be responsible for North Korea, Sakhalin, and the Kuril Islands, while the United States and the British Empire would have the responsibility for Japan, South Korea, and Japan's remaining possessions in Oceania........................

Occupations your favorite musicians had before making it big?

A couple musicans who comes to my mind are Jeff Keith (lead singer of Tesla) and Eddie Money.

Jeff Keith was a former heavy equipment mechanic and worked on dump trucks. While this isn't all glitz and glam, I think it's awesome how he was hard working and wasn't afraid of really busing a**. Looking at him on stage, I wouldn't think of him working on dump trucks. That just wouldn't be my guess.

Eddie Money being a former police officer is also random. Not of him being on the force, but the fact that a cop became a singer. The next time you get pulled over, think to yourself.. hell maybe this ticket will be valuable one day.

Your Turn...

What jobs are good for a daydreamer?

Any creative field. Mathematics. Physics. Inventing. Sir Isaac Newton was a dreamer, that's how he "discovered" gravity and thought up calculus.Eistein deliberately took a boring job in a patent office so that he could make his "thought experiments". Alexander Graham Bell was kicked out of school for being a dreamer. My own great-grandfather Burr Baldwin, inventor of the Baldwin Combine, was notorious for drifting off into daybreams and deep thought for days. When he came out of it, he'd head right to his workshop and invent something new. I knew Jobs and Wozniack "back in the day" and the most you could attribute to them was lucidity. A friend described visiting them as "the Land of the Bizarre". Both daydreamers.Perhaps we need to daydream to create something new.
