Thread: Occupations of Haunters

Tweet

I was listening to some back episodes of Hauntcast earlier, getting up to speed as I'm a new listener. I always find it interesting in the interviews to find out the various occupations of some of our fellow haunters. Sometimes there are the expected and logical occupations such as film industry employees, engineers, welders etc. And sometimes its fascinating to find that many of us work in some unrelated and sometimes very unexpected fields! The important thing is that we all share the love of Halloween.

So I thought it might be intersting if we shared... aside from haunting, what is your "day" job?

I worked in a bank for the past 15 years (actually longer, 15 at the last bank I worked) currently staying home, managing our rental property and little bookkeeping for my husbands business

Karasel... staying at home would be the best job of all, in my opinion!

Oh I almost forgot to mention mine! Airline pilot.

Being gone from home a lot makes it hard sometimes to make progress on halloween projects! But I can guarantee I do a lot of planning and doodling on napkins while I'm gone! My wife used to work in banking for several years also, and now works as the chief financial officer for a non-profit organization. We're debating getting into the rental business ourselves, but I'm a little frightened because I've never done anything like that before!

Full time dad, video game developer, and web designer.

Dog trainer and I work part time as a courier for a blood center

for over 20 years I have worked at a bakery/factory that makes cream curls(if you have ever seen the 5 pack ones at Walmart, yup, that's us! ) , steinstras santa claus cookies (sort of a windmill type of cookie), eclairs, cream puffs, turnovers, pie dough, etc,

Charge nurse in an ER.

My background is culinary. Certified Chef and eventually Director of R&D for a large restaurant chain. Moved to KC and now a happy housewife. The restaurant business will kill you!

I own and operate a Mixed Martial Arts gym, a video production business, a travel business that specializes in red-eye bus trips, and two Etsy shops (making/selling jewelry, photography, and other miscellaneous art). When you work for yourself you are always looking for new irons to put in the fire!
