What is Your Occupation?
Hi! I got super curious about this question the other day.
The question arose when I noticed some trainers enters up to 1k horses into races per week, and others only a couple of horses per week
Surely this has to depend on how much time you are able to put into the game? Or simply priorities
(I believe I covered MOST possibilities in the poll) ^^

Re: What is Your Occupation?
I've been back into full-time employment for six months (I was a stay at home mom for two years) and the time that I put into the SIM has drastically decreased. My job isn't overly demanding (I'm a medical laboratory technician at a quiet clinic) but I get up at 5:45AM for work, so I just don't have the same energy. Even on weekends, i'm usually in bed by 10:30
I'm in awe of people who work full time and can still dedicate themselves to 1,000+ SIM entries per week.

Re: What is Your Occupation?
I’m a jockey. We also have our own racehorses, plus a stallion and a handful of broodmares. As well as that we’ve got 30 head of limousin cattle. Most of the time I’m racing at 1pm on a Saturday (which is when Friday US results time is) so I tend to miss out on the big sim calls nights unless I’m injured or suspended.

Re: What is Your Occupation?
I literally don’t know which one to say
I have 5 jobs currently, I’m a waitress and cashier (same place), work off all my board as a hand, Shipt shopper, file clerk and have my own business (Magnawave).
Needless to say, I'm a jack of all trades, master of none. I tend to get bored after a while and will pick up new gigs. The only one I've done for more than 5 years is the barn cause obviously horses are the best and P's still expensive.

I'm full time with the Ford Motor Company at the truck plant on the engine line. However I could have said sick leave as I'm off for probably two months after having bunion surgery.

Vet Tech for 3 years, then 26.5 years as Inside Sales for a cooling tower company, then 9 years as an Order Administrator for a local Shutter/Blinds company. Retired the year of Covid in late 2020. The most fun I had was training and working with a friend's Paso Finos. It was a blast and they are fun to ride.
