¿A qué te dedicas? What do you do for a living?
I notice that a lot of you are really good in grammar/translation both in English & Spanish so I was wondering what you do for a living. Just wondering how many teachers, interpreters, and actual translators are part of this forum. I'll start with me. I'm in Accounts Receivable/Collections and I do all the translation from English to Spanish as needed in the office, of course with the great help of this forum.
¿Y Tu a que te dedicas'

Men are secretive and don't seem to be inclined to answer, jeje
I am a teacher and I love my job.
I translate for fun, too.
However, my main occupation is.......the forum, jeje
En contraste con lo que dice Heidita, jeje, no tengo secretos. Me dedico a mi empresa. Se trata de las instalaciones de los systemas eléctricos y el aire acondicionado. Soy director de la empresa.
See we got to be able to find happiness in every little thing! Aurino.
Please don't take me seriously, I seldom mean what I say or say what I mean, especially when talking about feelings. (you know how men are...)
Although I do agree that happiness which comes from happy times which means it comes and goes never last
I actually don't believe happiness is something you can have; life is made of happy and sad moments. You can't possibly have one and not the other.
but peace in your heart and mind can last a lifetime if you know how to cultivate it
I understand and agree.
How exciting I just went from a 'newbie? to a 'junior member? that makes me happy!
See we got to be able to find happiness in every little thing! Aurino. Although I do agree that happiness which comes from happy times which means it comes and goes never last but peace in your heart and mind can last a lifetime if you know how to cultivate it (cultivarlo)?
Y creo que he encontrado paz en este punto de mi vida y trato de cultivarla día tras día independientemente de mi ocupación y situaciones en mi vida y en el mundo'.
A while back I learned not to be a hater'. Thanks for the 'quote'
How interesting and surprising I though men (or most men) were braggers
We are, but we must have something to brag about
unfortunately we all been there, I had a job which lasted only one month because I hated it so much but now I'm happy!
Not to sound pessimistic but here's a snippet from a famous bossa-nova song:
Tristeza não tem fim
Felicidade, sim
(if it's not obvious, it means "la tristeza no tiene fin, la felicidad sí" - I didn't say it, Antonio Carlos Jobim did )
Men...braggers''? Noooooo!...just read my profile.
How interesting and surprising I though men (or most men) were braggers (presumidos but I guess they're secretive'which is good! Either way this is not about bragging or anything like that just sharing?
Thank you Heidita for sharing'.I think it's so cool to be a teacher and have an opportunity to make an impact on the lives of those you teach!
Thanks to all who posted a response even if its just to say that 'you hate your job''..unfortunately we all been there, I had a job which lasted only one month because I hated it so much but now I'm happy!
I am a teacher and I love my job. I translate for fun, too.
And I thought you were a supermodel
I won't say what I do for a living because I hate my job.
I'm sorry Yolii, Heidita is right, I don't wanna say what I do for a living, basically because I'm not doing it anymore and I really don't want to do it again...but anyway, It's good to see you!

I am many things, but I'm not any of the things that I am. Thank you for your interest.
Is one of those things that you are not..a riddler?
