Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].

5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Physician associate in mental health
I work in individual support under the NDIS in Australia. The NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) is a system that disabled people can access to fund various needs not covered by our medical system. I help one client who has had a stroke with eating and massage, another client with woodworking and metalworking, another with cleaning and organising their house, and really anything else they need.
It is really flexible and allows us to meet their needs, not what someone else thinks their needs must be.
Plumber & Home improvement contractor
I recently started my own business and now I do variety of jobs related to home maintenance except electrical. If this'll pay enough to keep me and my SO fed then based on my experience so far it was the best decision of my life. It doesn't really even feel like work and 98% of customer encounters have been positive. I've gotten 5x more thank yous in 2 months than I got in 10 years at my previous job. We've all had bad experiences with shitty contractors. I truly try to not be one of them.
I work in electrical power delivery for municipal transportation, supervision-level. Before that, I was a shoreside engineer (basically a mechanic, not an engineering degree) in marine services. My work has always come very organically, often starting in floor-sweeping assistant positions.
Machine operator. I run some CNC machines that are paired up with robots to handle the loading and unloading of the CNC's.
If and when industrial robots are hooked up to cameras and computers that can problem solve, my current job will be gone or very boring.
BDE
My primary job is IT.
But I am also a fully licensed pyrotechnic operator in California and put on large public displays throughout southern California. I also help with safety seminars showcasing special effects used in the film industry to local fire authorities so they are familiar if a production films somewhere under their jurisdiction.
Licensed US Customs Broker, I help my clients navigate getting their goods imported through US Customs.
Student Service for one of college, accommodating for student(s) with disabilities.
