      Mom mostly, since I had my oldest son 20 years ago.
      But I've done various things to earn money when I wanted extra to blow on frivolous stuff. Most recently transcription.

      The past two months though I've just been focusing on my house (which has been in a state of remodel since we moved in and needs finished) and my health. I've been sick for the past year and it was recently brought to my attention that I may end up on disability. Not a thought I relish.

      I'm a writer, first and foremost. I also have a part-time office job for a steady income, but I'm not good at it, don't like it, and don't identify with it at all, so that doesn't count. My first book will be published later this year (not in English, unfortunately), and while I'm not under any illusion that it will make me so rich and famous that I can quit my office job and turn my hobby into my new career, it won't be my only book, so I still hope I'll get there someday. (Well, the rich part. I don't necessarily want to be famous, no matter what the theme song of the Get Famous EP says.)

      I work in the creative industry and share some of that practical knowledge at a University.

      You mentioned that you're studying human behavior. How? Are you studying the community's behavior on these forums in relation to their job?
      Just curious. ;)

      I set up advertising on social networks such as Instagram and Facebook through the target. Work mainly with numbers, settings, algorithms, etc. Sometimes you have to be very nervous, especially if Facebook does not allow your advertising. 2 weeks before the election in the USA, it has been rejected 8 ads, 3 accounts have been blocked. Some ads were allowed, but then still rejected. Facebook has increased control. Judging by their logic, any non-standard action on the account = suspicion of involvement in the election = blockage of the account So it remains only to wait until everything returns to normal.

      Good luck! One of my favorite authors is self published and not what most people would call famous, but she's a great writer and has a good fanbase.

      Tourism
      Before the pandemic it was tourism. I live in a place that relies heavily on tourism and the economy relies heavily on it. I'm not doing anything at the moment because there's no tourists here. Perhaps things will pick up during the summer.

      Definitely. I worked with 2&3 year olds for five years and loved it. I still think about those kids.

      Hey there!
      I just removed several comments because they were breaking the forum rules:
      • Don't be inappropriate. That means no obscenity or other explicit posts i.e. sexting. This includes role play threads.
      • Don't be a troll, bait or flame. This includes deliberately trying to cause an argument by making sarcastic, off-topic, rude or disruptive posts, and discussions.
      Please remember that the forum rules also apply to our Off-Topic section!

      - Leeloo

      Can I say all of the above? As a Stay at home mom I feel like I do a few of these if not everyday at least some point during the week, lol. And with spring coming we will be getting our veggie garden ready so I'll be doing more 👍🙂

      Services
      Health administration.

      Currently out of work though. Because I work in a hospital and am immunosuppressed, I self-quarantined in the early7 part of the pandemic. When I wanted to go back, they told me they had redistributed the medical transcription work (my job) among the rest of the admin staff. So there is no work for me. Technically still on the books, but effectively unemployed.
