What's your occupation ???
 

Hey guys, just wondering what some of you all do for a living, share if you like :)

Unemployed, after 20+ years in the trenches. (Our side lost.) Going back to school.

I'm a Warrenty Technician, private network consultant, graphic artist.

The money is made in that order also.

I really want to just save up (which I'm putting my $3000 a year into a roth) and become a history prof at age 35.

Project Manager

I don't know.

I was a Sales Analyst for a pharmaceutical company up until May 1st. Then they "centralized" all analysis functions for the corporation. The new department has not really been formed yet and the new department heads aren't real big fans of mine (I disagreed with the marketing assessment on one of our products and made a case for eliminating an outside sales force. They didn't like that and since I was right that bugs them even more).

My current division doesn't want to lose me so they keep paying me to come in even though I really don't have an official job. Been working on various shit projects for the last 3 months.

Promo producer working for a large multi-channel televison company.

student, waiter, programmer (internships and sort of on the side)

I'm an assistant service advisor at Crossroads Ford. It's a huge service center, and our dealership is 2nd in the nation as far as sales.
Basically I spend a lot of time driving cars, greeting customers, inspecting new cars before we sale them, etc.

Pay isn't that great, but I enjoy my job, and it pays the bills while I'm saving money to finish college.
