  • I'm so not qualified for the ballerina title... Stick out tongue

    But I am the studio directer at a local dance studio.  I run all the scheduling, communication, etc.  I also teach young childrens (1st grade and lower) Ballet, then all ages of tap and jazz.

    I don't nest from work ever because there is never a time that I'm not swamped with work.  But my hours in the mornings are very flexible and I don't ever have to come in before 10am.  When I'm nesting it's either before I have to go in that day, or very late at night when I finally get home.

  • I'm a QA Engineer. I take the webpage after/during the developers and make sure it's perfect. What you see on most web pages isn't what I see when I first get it. I see mistakes on webpages all the time...CNN and MSN are actually really bad for mistakes.

    Well, here's some advice for your next life:  I've worked in the private studios since I was 19 and have done work for the public dance teams too (choreography, etc) and I don't think I could EVER work in the public schools as a full time dance teacher/Director.  The restrictions and endless, the parents are.... ummmm.... difficult.  As a studio director/instructor I think I'm able to focus much more on the artistic elements and do a lot less of the paperwork!  I have considered getting certified but to be an teacher - not a dance director!!! I guess I'll never say "never"... but not annnytime soon!  I love the flexibility and freedom that comes with the private studios.

    However I also do marketing and leasing for a multi-family real estate company, because it pays the bills better.
