i used to work as receptionist at h&r block and as a cashier at wal-mart while working in the skill nursing floor. i believed i did it because of boredom, so once i realized it i looked for a job in a hospital where i could float everywhere and so far i've been doing it for more than 5 yrs and feeling good about it. would i go back to work in a non-nursing field? i think not.

I was a docent at a national landmark for 7 years , primarily because it had nothing to do with nursing. For pay, I'm a free lance sign language interpreter. Mostly religious services. For a while I knit socks to order ( for people with certain fiber allergies or who needed non-constricting tops, diabetics, etc) but no one wanted to pay for even a fraction of what it cost in labor.

ETA: I do have a full time nursing job.
