I stay at home with our six daughters, am about to give birth to our seventh child (a son!!!), and I homeschool all five old enough for school.

Oh, and I am an editor for a publishing house in Canada. (Talk about telecommuting!)

Occasionally, I write novels, too. I have seven published.

Sometimes, I even get to listen to music. No one pays me for that, though.

I roll (sorting clothing and shoes by size and store location) several thousands of items to the salesfloor of the thrift store I work in, 40-50 hours/week.

My team also makes sure that there's a place for everything - and everything is in its place.

I maneuver around thousands of oblivious manatees that have no idea what "excuse me, ma'am/sir" means.

I used to be the regular fitting room attendant.

Before I started working for the company I'm at right now, I worked in two different copy/print centers (I did everything from minor black and white print jobs to major coil-bound book jobs). Before then I worked in a couple clothing stores; I've also been a customer service manager for a Wal-Mart store (absolute hell), a gas station attendant, and when I entered the workforce 11 years ago, I worked in a restaurant.

I've been dealing with assholery of the human race for 11 long years.

How did you end up in biotech? Did you get there through business or science? Or a combination of both? It was a field I was considering pursuing a couple of years ago but ended up chasing some other corners of science / tech instead.
