Yes, because working with children with special needs is not something that everybody can do. You can have all of the degrees out there, but if you’re not made for this job, you won’t last long.
I’ve turned my family diying business into a successful venture. Yes, I am very proud about it, especially since my family, especially my mother, never trusted me and did everything in her power to boycott me.
Working as a wildlife photographer might not pay the best but waking up at 4 AM to catch that perfect sunrise shot of a family of foxes is absolutely magical. Sometimes I have to pinch myself that this is actually my job.
I’ve been a self-employed electrician for getting close to 30 years now. Dunno about proud but happy that I’ve been able to support my own family, never had to deal with office drama and the only knobhead boss I’ve ever worked under is myself.
If you’d asked me that question up until a few months ago, I’d have probably said no. I manage a medical logistics operation that transports underserved individuals to doctors appointments. Some 40% of our work is what is considered life preserving care (death will be accelerated without it). Up until recently, senior leadership basically wanted to paint the company with a broad brush, and hold my team to the standards of other teams that had access to higher volumes of work in a more simple environment.
New leadership and new eyes got to see what my team does, which results in multiple trips that would otherwise fail, and that no one else will do getting performed, with the fewest declines of any office. When faced with an environment that is constantly challenging, we contribute to the effort in a way that makes us peerless.
I took on a role that will enable me to bring the better parts of my skill set to help others, and in doing so, I was able to push my own administrative staff up.
So yeah, I’m flying pretty high right now.
Oh, and apparently making double what most households in my town make is what makes Daddy dearest proud of me, so there’s that too.
I am retired now, worked almost 37 years as a locomotive engineer on a major railway.The pay/ pension was great.They put alot of responsibility on the crew, long hours, no schedule on call 24/ 7 with 2 hrs notice,working in severe weather conditions,management could be tough.But l am proud to say l gave it 100% 90% of the time and had nothing to be ashamed of when l finished my trip.I owed the Company that ,l owed myself that and l worked safely for my coworkers and to protect the general public.

While it’s not brain surgery it pays real well with excellent insurance & a fat 401. Puts me in a nice home & takes care of my family. Blessed
