Poll on what we do for a living?

hmmm....

i would say break it into two main categories first: blue collar, white collar, and a listing of generalized occupations within each...

 

maybe its a Washington thing,(we do have more than our share...still aint enough though) but every hospital in the state looks like a Toyota dealership lot specializing in Priuses

 

I had a job as a pilot. I'd take stuff off of the truck and pile it in the warehouse.

 

LOLOL!! :lol:

 

dont forget my job... peon

 

I'm polled out. I've seen so many polls lately, I feel like I'm in Warsaw.

 

Well, if you do, include "scientist". this not-an-engineer likes having her own poll answer! (and I think there are several of us here, seeing as the Prius attracts so many geeks...)

Actually, there is a poll for engineering degrees or training. Further, there is (or was) a thread running around here wherein a number of members posted what they did for a living.

 

If you do end up making this into a poll, include 'Real Estate'. I have a feeling that considering the amount of driving a real estate agent, appraiser, home inspector, etc does during your typical week, there may be many out there that are Prius owners. But there may be not many on here cometothinkofit...except for me and remaxmanager that I know of offhand.

Or maybe adult actor Big Big Star

 

Soooooo, how big are we talking?

Just kidding...I'm not sure I really want to know.

 

Jim, I don't think an even faintly thorough one has been done. It's not easy knowing where to draw the line on occupations---every list is different. You'll have an "other" choice so people can post theirs, anyway---just a matter of how many will need to. I don't think it will cut your poll participation much in any case.

retired or semi-retired (if semi, what PT job?)
FT or PT student (major field?)
building contractor or building tradesperson
realtor
financial services
health care/social services/recreation
clerical (private or gov't)
administrative/mid-level mgt (private or gov't)
retail/sales
self-employed: business/consultant/service
technician
broadcast or print media or writing

(still thinking--feel free to ignore/revise)

 

seems like someone already did this

[after looking at Priusonline's "survey"]

Actually, nothing wrong with the way they're doing it (it's still current). It's more personal, and there will inevitably be more interplay, whereas with an anonymous poll, there won't be unless someone is motivated both to "vote" and post. Heck, what's to lose? Just start a thread.


Edit: ...and put in a disclaimer that I egged you on. :lol:

 

Looks like this thread should have been a poll.
