I don't know what caused me to want to ask this, but what does everyone do for a living? Now notice that I asked what do you do for a LIVING, so "student" doesn't count, I mean WHAT IS YOUR JOB...
Me? I work fulltime as a customer service rep for AT&T wireless, been there since september of 2000.

SimpleS14 · 11-30-2003, 10:47 PM

Student...

...no seriously, they pay for all my school, and an extra $700 a semester to go here and learn, so its my job. Then during the summers I have to try and make as much money as possible with random internships, but its never enough, my car is still stock

Warwick5s · 12-01-2003, 01:09 AM

aside from being a full time student (Music Performance major and history major) at the University of Wisconsin - Madison....

i'm a musician (bass player) in about 5 bands - a funk band, a strange indie rock + jazz fusion band, a metal band, a jazz quartet, and a jazz big band. i also have an endorsement deal with Warwick basses. i used to teach lessons too, which i will probably resume over the summer.

and i also work at the UW-Madison computer helpdesk: some phone support, some walk-in, and some 'computer alone time.' it's a fun job.

aznpoopy · 12-01-2003, 09:20 AM

i graduated from Rutgers College last May with a BA in Computer Science. now i'm working a job in lower Manhattan near Wall St for AI Credit, a subsidiary of AIG. i handle computer leasing and sales... not quite where i thought i'd be but a paycheck is a paycheck. i suppose i should count myself lucky to have gotten a job out of college. i'm also about 4 blocks from ground zero. scary. i am currently pwned by my girlfriend and my mechanically challenged 240sx.

Bliss · 12-01-2003, 11:05 AM

Part-time "Tire Technician" at Discount Tire/America's Tire. Change, rotate, balance, repair, new stuff, etc... Been there since last May. Everytime I try to find a better job, I can't cuz of 3 things 1) I like what I'm doing. 2) I get paid well, and 3) They are very flexible around my school schedule. I also own my own business. It could be extremely successul, I'm just being too damn lazy. Anyone in the SD area wanna make some money with me? *serious*

Only working about 25 hours/week right now. Next semester I plan on being a full time employee/full time student. Sounds like fun to me.

**mrmephistopheles** · 12-01-2003, 12:16 PM

I scan peoples' medical records and upload them to a website where insurance companies can retreive them. I sometimes to customer service on the phone, calling doctor's offices and hospitals to ask for the records, which I hate. But it's always fun reading crazy peoples' psychiatric records. Brightens my day

omen2853 · 12-01-2003, 10:31 PM

LOL i know exactly what you mean whateverjames. if im talking with one of the patients and they are acting especially nuts that day, ill go and run through their records and read about why theyre hear. some funny things in those books...lol.

Burmonster · 12-01-2003, 10:43 PM

I am a full time student at Mercer University working for my Ph.D in Biological research, hopefully going to med school in 2 years and I am a part time biological research assistant at the CDC in Atlanta.

STIwish · 12-02-2003, 12:45 PM

Well lets see, im a jack of all trades as far as computer related work is concerned, I specialize in web development and design with Flash, Coldfusion and PHP, and I have been doing that for multiple companies for the last couple of years. As of right now however since my wife jetted and cleared my bank accounts and maxxed my credit cards, effectively putting my new web development business under (and causing me to have a major breakdown), I am a sales associate at a local Kmart, making less than I even made when I was a highschool student. Such a fall from grace.
