Sleevers by profession.

My first post here, been reading for months. Seems a lot of people posting are in the medical field. I thought it would be cool to hear what fellow sleevers do for a living.

The wife and I are both Respiratory Therapists here in Michigan. I am just starting this journey with my 8 hour information seminar ( pre-op ) scheduled for later this month. My better half was sleeved the end of April. She is doing awesome. Down 84 lbs total including the pre-op weight loss.

Im so excited to get my life back after getting this incredible weight loss tool.

Hope to hear from you guys.

I am a sales engineer for an electrical company that sells to the construction industry. Needless to say I researched the procedure before signing up. Best move I ever made.

I am God..

No, sorry, that was my internal dialogue.

I do pan western/eastern hemisphere paper-clip distribution.

Nope, that's not it either, although it is often close.

Closer to the truth? I do legal navel inspection and belly button fluff removal in failed or fragile states.... :D

I work for an airline in the customer service field (I know crazy) and am a mom to an 8 year old boy who thinks he's 20. :-)

Love this thread.

I'm the codes and standards manager for a plastic piping company. Hold many positions on various construction code bodies and ensure my companies products and installations confirm to the appropriate codes and standards for the jurisdiction of installation.

I might be in the running for the need award!

Oops. *company's not companies. I also love autocorrect.

I'm a psychiatrist.

Why are there so many nurses in need of this surgery?

I feel a little guilty, I think doctors are partially to blame. I know I was always advised if the nurses were giving you a hard time or paging you all night, the solution was bringing a box of donuts or cupcakes to the nurses' station!

I'm a public health nurse in Maryland ....for 17 years and counting. Public health rocks!!! Love it.

No worries! When he's 20, he'll act like he's 8!

Heck yeah! Let's hear it for Public Health! I never want to leave my job!

I am a RP (Rapid Prototyping) Supervisor. I make the first of everything, from pen caps to helicopter engines. The parts are literally grown layer by layer using liquid photo polymers and UV lasers. In lay-mans terms....3D printing.

I love what I do. I have the opportunity to work on something different every day.

Although, prior to this I was in the Jewelry industry for 10 years. Prior to that I was a corrections officer.

Lets just say I am diversified.

I'm an instructor of human resource software for a large human capital management company. I do this from home (virtually) and I LOVE my job. I'm also a mom to 2 kids, 7 and 10. Prior to this, I was an HR professional.

I'm a 911 dispatcher for a three county dispatch center in Northern Michigan. I've been working midnight shifts for the last 12 years and for most of my adult life. I'm curious how many others would attest that shift work throws their eating habits (and sleeping) into a spiral of chaos?

I am a video editor for a cable network.
