After 13 years, I am still doing a job I love, being a firefighter. I kind of fell into it after a few years working on a wahmbulance. I had no interest in being a firefighter at the time, but now I can't imagine doing anything else. Six years ago, I was also working full time as mortician. After having my first son, I decided I needed to stay home more. Now my part time job is a construction laborer.
