People who are not working in IT, what do you? Does your profession have an active community here?

    I work as a Bartender/server in a fine dining setting. There seem to be a few of us lurking around. The cocktail community has a little action. But nothing huge yet.

      Thanks for sharing. Yes, !cocktails@lemmy.world is reasonably active indeed, let’s see how it evolves!

    Bartender, no community that I’m aware of but it’s a tradition to visit the cocktail communities and laugh/ rage at the the pretentious cocktail snobs there.

    I am an exercise physiologist. There is no active community on reddit, so even less on lemmy. If you know some rehabilitation or physical exercise subs I’ll be happy to join them ! :)

        I’m currently working in cardiology so it’s a little bit out of my scope. 😬 It doesn’t seem to be well studied but you can find some informations here. Have you ever consulted a physiotherapist ? They are more specialized in pain management than exercise physiologists.

          Hey thanks for the reply! Yes, I’ve met with my primary care provider and been taking corticosteroids for inflammation which seems to be dramatically helping. I guess I was wondering about stretching vs non-stretching and if you had any knowledge of it, but no worries either way- it is healing!

            I hope you will heal soon ! The litterature recommand stretching and progressive resistance training of the muscle groups involved in the movements that limit you. 😊

          Well, there is also a difference between railroad employee communities and a railfan community. Big difference. Thanks for looking.

    Event planner. Started as a technician, running lights and/or sound for events. Concerts, dance shows, musicals, corporate sales events, etc… Eventually fell into the admin and planning side of things, because freelancing isn’t a viable retirement strategy.

    No, I doubt I’ll ever see a community here. But that’s alright; If I wanted to talk about work, I’d talk to coworkers.

    Project Manager for a silicon photonics company. I haven’t really looked for an active community on Lemmy yet for project management. I was on the Reddit sub for PMs which actually had great discussions sometimes.

    I am in my “50 years old and working a shitty remote job as an expat because I just don’t give a fuck anymore” phase. I answer emails from clients regarding financial matters. Very boring stuff. There’s no community here for it, and thank Jeebus for that. Honestly, AI could do my job (and it often does, but don’t tell my boss).
