What do you do for a living?

I work in Reasearch & Development/Product Development.

My job title is:

Certified Maintenance Technologist for a Waste Water Treatment Facility

In other words, I fix machines and stuff at a poop factory

For Hasbro? Ya dirty rat I'll kill ya, for makin' me broke!!!

I am a tradesman, learned masonry from my Dad, who learned from his, all the way back to the cavemen I suppose! After 15 years in the field, I decided to give my back, elbows, and knees a break. I started as a grunt in a factory that made, of all things, concrete blocks for masonry!

I worked my way up and learned to be an industrial technician/mechanic/engineer and did that for about 5 years.

I now have set myself up financially to start my art business with my girlfriend. We make arts and crafts using natural stones, slate, and high mineral rocks.

I am doing great and have art shows pretty much every weekend. It has surpassed my previous incomes at the same time allowing me to work from home, and giving me more time to do custom action figures, writing and drawing!

Actually, I customize figures/parts/accs and make molds and casts of them to sell. You know, total nerd job. Doesn't pay a ton, but it beats bartending and waiting tables like I've done for the last 18 years or so.

Just kidding! I hope to be there too eventually!

Man, I wish....to actually be able to do something you love doing, and it be enough to take care of "business" too?....that would rock

Not a nerd job at all Alyosha.

Wait, so, you work in Waste Management? Are you in the mob?

I am systems administrator for a transportation company.

My official title is Computer Technician, but I'm also the de facto network administrator for a local city government.

[Runamuck]

Shelf Replenishment Engineer at TRU.

[Smokescreen GT]

I'm a Document Management Associate (i.e. scanner) for an insurance company. Basically, our company just went paperless, and I'm one of four people right now that scans into our computer system every document received (mail, fax, whatever) for the entire claims department. Then once a doc is scanned it has to be indexed to the proper electronic claim file. On average we scan and index about 300-500 documents a day. It's tedious work to be sure, but it pays the bills.

Same here. My title is Corporate Administration Assistant working for the local council, but the bulk of the work is scanning. I also get involved in equipment maintenance, events organisation and overseeing they go off properly, procurement for the different sections of the council under our team's umbrella, and to a slightly lesser degree developing the service so that the system can be made to work better. Out of my team I'm the one who understands computers best so a lot of the IT stuff generally falls to me to work out.

Wouldn't have it any other way, malfunctioning equipment giving me stress headaches notwithstanding.
