What do you do for a living?

I work the front desk at a hotel, during the 3rd shift; though I would hardly call it a "living", more like a "dieing"

I'm also a part time student with an undecided major, though it's leaning towards computer science.
 
right now i am in between jobs after deciding leaving a job i loved for more money in another field (pharmaceuticals) turned me into an unhappy, unfulfilled drug user. (extra cash is a gift and a curse)

but, my college degree, experience and passion is in the field of fragrance and sense of smell - i used to evaluate fragrances and also worked for a while designing them and the bottles, packaging, etc.
 
Senior Project Manager at a VERY large computer company

Little do they know how wild am I deep down inside hahahaha
 
I just finished part of my studying at home, moved to London and I just got employed doing administration for an estate agents.

It's not what I want to do in life, but I am thoroughly enjoying the experience and knowledge I'm learning and my position is going to made quite senior in a few weeks, where I will practically BE an estate agent. Which is not what I want to be, but while I am living here it's a pretty good job in comparison to what some of my housemates do. I enjoy this job, my last one for the past three years was in retail where I was a doormat, this job I have respect, I am of importance to the business and I feel what I do there really matters. Which makes me happy deep down. So that's all that matters at the end of the day really. :D
 
full time nursing student (leaning towards labor & delivery or ER/trauma)

and

i tend bar 5 days a week.

3 more months of this fucking restaurant business and i'm outta here!

izzy- what area of nursing do you work in?
 
Full time student (3rd year International Studies major) and I work part time as a waitress at a sushi restaurant.
 
I go to school full time (ouch!) to study philosphy (why?) and English Literature (why???). In my strangely vast amount of free time I work on my real love, my poetry, and for the last six years have been trying to start a band.
 
Freelance writer here. Currently holding down a steady job writing health articles for a website that shall remain nameless. Have also had gigs writing for a music magazine, being a news reporter, blogging for a marijuana website and plenty of other random shyte.

The pros are that I set my own schedule, work from home and can make as little/much money each paycheck as I want. I get paid weekly, have no boss and can be high as fuck everyday if I want...The cons are that there is no one to keep me on track but myself, and I'm a big procrastinator. The biggest. :)
 
Former jack of all trades now a student who is studying Addictions and Community Service.

i work at a cemetary but it could hardly be called a living. I think you'd need at least double what i make to survive solo in socal.

hahaha what inspired you to pursue that? i met one dude who was substituting for a funeral director, he was an embalmer. Verrrry strangely interesting dude. Borderline creepy. He could not stop eyeing my co-worker up and down either, so i suspect he was homosexual as well.


edit- yea, and i still spell 'cemetery' wrong.....
 
In my final year of a Phd in psychopharmacology... I love it - get to play around with PCP all day long to see if we can model the attentional impairments and increased impulsivity associated with schizophrenia.

Trying to unravel the biological mechanisms of these cognitive impairments so hopefully one day new drugs targets can be identified in order to develop new drugs that may allieveate some of the cognitive effects of the disorder...
