[Casual] On-The-Clock Profile Questionnaire (for anyone / everyone working a non-traditional job)
reddit.comWould anyone with an unusual job be open to a short Q&A about your day-to-day? (anonymous OK)
I’m working on a small series of day-in-the-life profiles about unexpected jobs. I’m not looking for personal info or anything confidential—just the routine, the reality, and what people misunderstand.
If you’re open to it, comment or DM:
- Job title
- General location/remote
- One misconception about the job
If it’s a fit, I’ll follow up with a short list of questions. Anonymous is always an option.
People who made a non-traditional career move: what job did you land in (and what’s the day-to-day like)?
I’m collecting stories about non-traditional work and sideways career paths—especially jobs you don’t necessarily go to school for.
If you’ve made a career change into something unexpected, I’d love to hear:
- What you do now
- How you got into it (the real path)
- What your day-to-day looks like
- What you wish you’d known before switching
Comment or DM.
P.S. I'm happy to keep details vague/anonymous.

What’s a job you’ve had that sounds fake until you explain it?
I’m collecting stories about “wait… that’s a job?” work. The roles people don’t realize exist, or jobs that don’t have a straightforward path.
If you’re comfortable sharing, I’d love to hear:
- What you call the job (in your words)
- What a normal day actually looks like (a few bullets is fine)
- One thing people always get wrong about it
