Reality is straddling between two commodities firms until I pic a chair. Eating small scraps as I train brokers till I become one again myself.

lol I am a large format color printer. I can do his resolution photo scanning and reproduction. So if anyone has anything cool to reproduce just call me lol

 

[MisterPaul]

I work in software sales and marketing. Specifically, it's the logistics software that helps track cargo from it's source to it's destination and all details in between (ie: name of the truck driver, insurance, invoices, etc.)
Not very exciting, but it pays the bills.

Martini, an international playboy and a man of mystery, that sounds really intersting.

That is about all there is to it. But I can say that I make your life less taxing.

 

[warbird]

I may have already answered this, but I can't recall and I am too lazy to read all though the thread to find out so....

I am a lobbyist and political consultant.

I came by that trade, which I seek to get out of, the same as most; I majored in aerospace and flew airplanes. Make sense? Hmm not to me either. How the hell did I get here?

 

[Mister_Ed]

I'm a demographer/cartographer for the CDC here in Atlanta.

 

[kamikat]

I'm a stay-at-home mom. Before leaving the workforce to take care of babies, I was a hairdresser. My little one is going to kindergarten in 3wks, so I may be going back to the salon this fall.

Please don't take any of the odd lawyer-jokes I may crack every now and then personally, it's just that so many do fit the stereotype. (Wouldn't want my toes "accidentally" stepped on should our paths ever cross at an FL event... ) Here's hoping ya passed, and will get a chance to improve the average character of the profession...

I used to be a teacher; but after 9 years, I got out of the profession and do not regret the decision one bit. As of 4 days ago, I started a new job (and am loving it) doing customer support for teachers, parents, and administrators for an educational internet-based company. I keep telling my family and friends that I'm so excited to be in a job where I can go pee when I need to (seems like a simple request but when you had to visit the emergency room due to a bladder infection, that's a big perk). I'm amazed at all the little things the company does for us. They even have a hair stylist come in and do haircuts for free and give us unlimited supplies of drinks (soda, Red Bull, juice, etc) and we can decorate our cubicles however we like (a guy in my department put a small, furry rug and pillow in his cubicle with a Japanese lantern hanging from above...pretty funny.)
Seems to be a fun and interesting place to work.

I'm a trainer for a large international corporation. I specialize in customer service.

career

I teach secondary English.

Before that I wrote . . . well, just about anything one might read, except a novel. In my late thirties I made a newspaper for an ethnic community and ad campaigns. Anybody remember the beginning of credit repair? I was one of those guys. We lied for a living. The money was ok, the client happy as a clam getting something for nothing. One day I sat on my office floor and tried to figure out why I deserved to draw air. I walked, and after a while I started teaching.

I never wonder why I do it, or whether it deserves to be done. I can't think of a day in the last decade I wouldn't want to answer for.

Carpe Diem
Fast

Try not to do to much for as much as possible.
Considering the fact that July just past and we just had another raise, I think I am doing it quite well!
Yeah for the Brotherhood!! Er, sisterhood?
Union Electrician, LU 357 previously mentioned in another thread like this, I am an electrican, I do convention work here in Las Vegas, setting up the electrecial work that needs to be done on the booths/buildings that are built for the conventions that are going on for various who haas. I don't like to do construction, unless its the last resort (to flippin hot!!). Plus I like to meet all the different people who come in from around the world selling their wares, you really don't get a chance to meet people from around the world stuck in a construction site.
