official title: "Senior Oracle Database Administrator" Unofficial title: "computer geek" Closer description: Administer a large jewelery company's websites (IBM WebSphere, IBM MQ).

Really what I do: vigorously avoiding responsibility and constantly dodging bullets of blame for every freaking hiccup the company experiences (mid-tier administration SUCKS).

I think it's the best job in the world. I get paid to hang out with some really bright, fun kids and teach them how to think critically.

Hell, had it not been for a few of my English teachers, I may not have left the church.

Healthy meals home made every day, crisply ironed clothes, volunteer at the local co-op, spend time in the garden in summer, and indoor hobbies in winter and then lots of free time to spend with my DH when he gets home from work.

Lots of impressive degrees. I guess we're the ones intelligent enough to get out of the cult.

Plus, we've adopted several special needs children - it's definitely a "job" to care for them.

sorry, sensitive subject.
1. I knew an LDS army PA killed last year, you can look it up, please don't mention any names here.
2. My testimony collapsed "over there", on the edge of my ability to go on.
My job has allot to do with why i'm exmo and how it affects me.
