What do you do for a living?

[subisjustokay]

I searched for a thread like this b/c I'M SURE there had to be one, but I didn't see one and I was just wondering what fellow BL'ers do for a living, if anything?

I myself work as an estimator for an electrical contracting company...


What's everyone else do?

I'm a student first, but a pizza delivery guy second. Vince & Dominic's to be exact, haha.

^Estimating can be a draagggg sometimes huh? I think I get maybe 10% of the jobs I bid on... I hate it!... Because we bid up against usually 30 other EC's and some jackass will forget something major in his bid and end up getting the project and loosing his ass on it... Awesome to see a fellow estimator though!

I'm a full-time student, but I also work for the geological survey here playing with soil samples, most days.

I work for a crook who has no qualms whatsoever about cutting corners. Even when I fuck up, we usually end up smelling like roses.

Essentially, my job is to figure out how much the HO is willing to spend, and then get him/her for every penny of that.

Edit: even though my PRIMARY function is to bid, with the economy being so shit, I've had to do all kinds of service/installation lately.

for me it's the best way to make around $30/hr and have steady work anywhere I might go. takes a certain kind of person... it's not an emotionally easy job.
thanks, Kyk.
