Poll question: What Sector do you work in? |
|
Just wanted to get a broad view of where DU'ers work
This is not so much about function - you could be Business owner, CEO or Doorman ..
If you are a consultant - Pick the Industry that you work in.
I only have 10 options here so I cannot get too granular. I am lumping a few together ( Business Services for eg)

In forms that list this type of thing, I usually fall under a category called something like "Arts/Entertainment/Media."

9. Does the results in survey so far, mean that store clerks are not democrats? |
|
Edited on Fri Sep-25-09 02:11 PM by TheCoxwain
I forgot -- they dont sit in front of a computer and respond to surveys on DU?
And Real Estate Brokers? - They are out of business
Should be interesting to check whether the responses of the survey is different in the evening.

11. If you separate your function from the industry your company is in - it should be fairly easy. |

16. Other: Health care. I won't be lumped with the anti-health care you have under "medical", sorry |
|
Of these 3, I'd be in with the last, but not the first 2, hence "other" Medical - ( Including Pharama, Medical Insurance, Basic Research)
