    This is a bit of a difficult question to answer, because I have a lot of stuff that I do, but I don't know of any of it is what I'll end up doing long-term.

    At the moment my cash inflow comes from working on my Masters in Mechanical Engineering. My previous degree was linguistics, and my degree before that was engineering physics. I suppose I don't so much do things for a living as do things because I love to do them. At the moment I have no long-term plans beyond finishing up this Masters, but I'm fully confident that God will provide everything I need to get to the next part of this adventure and to walk out my destiny. Which is gonna be totally awesome.

    Yes, too much information from the open source already so I'd better shut up

    It sucks when you have a really cool job but you can't tell anyone about it .

    This is in stark contrast to guys at the bar who tell girls they are Navy SEALs just to impress them, and you know they're full of shit.

    So true. But most of the time I deal with cap dev and doctrine stuff so it's not that classified... it's not really the most exciting job around. But the good thing is I get lots of time to run, work out.

    I work for the provincial government. Building roads, maintaining the areas which I work in. Running many types of equipement, I suppose I could be an Engineer, but I am just lowly grunt so to speak. I make a modest $70K/year. I'm content at my job. Have to love government jobs.

    I've had a lot of very different jobs in the past. This year I went back to school. I'm a double major studying graphic design and studio art full time. I also have two part time jobs. I'm a referee, and I do work study at my university's tech support office.

    I I am a Public Ally/ Recycling project coordinator. I work on environmental issues across the city, along with community outreach and organizing, and I am also working with a tam of individuals to ameliorate social issues between youth, business owners, and residents in a certain community in the city I live in. Along with that, I am on an advisory board for a green technologies corporation, and I work at an organic urban garden.

    I'm in IT systems analysis and quality control... I like how being picky and pedantic is part of the job. Suits me pretty well.

    I am in school finishing up my Bachelors to become a system analyst, since it has become quite clear I am an inadequate programmer. Hoping I can find a job that's not in bumfuck India.
