People make movies and tv shows. They need little parts of other tv shows to put into their tv shows and movies. I find those little parts and give them to them for money.

[Describing my job without the word "sell" isn't difficult but it sure is awkward.]

I work on making it easier for people to watch TV. That's right, I'm busy making the world a better place.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I help people who want to make our city a better place to live. We help people learn what a good city can be and how we can all work together to make our city a good city. We help people help each other. What I do is make sure people I work with get paid and get all the stuff they need to help everyone. I take care of the office and all the people in it.

Our wings are not tired.

My description of my job may differ from one day to the next, but this is the common word description today -

I listen to doctors, and then tell them that they need to do things my way and stop being big cry babies. Then they yell at me and I tell them in my sweet voice to get over it.

"software" "test" and "succeed" fail the up-goer-five criteria!

Librarian Warlord

So far, no layoffs in my library, but we still have at least two days to go.

Did I mention that they have chosen to meet with people in an office in the hallway that is the main route to the cafe?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

My job is to help people fill out the right forms and pay the right money to the right people. I show other people how to do the same job, make sure they have all the things they need to do the job, and make sure they do the job right. I spend most of the year checking the new things we will use to do the job next year.
