Poll: What do you do for a living

[John Junk]

I'm the Studio and Gallery Manager at a California Art School.  There's like 160-something art studios and/or cubicles that I'm supposed to "manage" as well as 5 galleries.  Managing the studios means telling people to throw out their fire-hazard furniture and to stash their contraband somewhere where I can't find it.

My Job Title Is Associate Asset Management Analyst - I analyse the management of assets associatively.

I'm an attorney- though right now I'm a stay at home dad providing care to my severely autistic daughter. My wife- an occasional listener- is a classical musician in a symphony orchestra.

Hey Kevin,

Where are you and Attorney?

I own a medium-sized pharmaceutical consulting company.  We help the pharmas to market and sell their products, which probably makes me at least close to being one of the Bad Guys.

But, hey, I have a good time.

[KevinG]

Actually I'm not that far away from you, Richard. I'm in Indianapolis.

[johnfgillson]

I'm on the radio in Minneapolis.

[DonovanAlabaster]

I’m a cash manager for a large grocer.  I often get to use the word ‘hemorrhage.’

Ah poor poor Kevin, pity the lawyers

Artist, Illustrator, Photographer, Writer and Entrepreneur. Me and my friends are starting a small production /homemade amps and effects pedals company. Our name, right now, is NeidoKein Global Solutions North America. We're planning on starting this summer with a short film already in the works and a couple prototype amps.

Next year, I will be living off campus with three other like minded individuals, and we will be trying to do some design work, mainly silkscreening. I already do shirt designs for various people.

Although I make some money every now and then on illustrations (really just every then, I've only had two jobs so far), I'm a full time student at the moment. My only steady job is working in a small storehouse delivering packages.

I have a couple of things I'm going to be talking to a friend of the family about, trying to get them copy-writed. One is a board game I recently designed, and a second is a type of key-lock that should be able to counter a very easy and popular lock-picking technique. I would also like to work on an idea for a self popping bag of pop corn, useful for sneaking into movies, but the price might be too steep to ever actually market. Every once in a while I wonder if I should've gone the "Chemical and robotics engineering" route insteadd of art. But hell, I'm always gonna do both.

I also do minor forgeries, and have been employed at a local party house a couple times as a bouncer, where said skills made it easy to spot fakes and kick people out.

I would like to work on Sea Shepherd for a season someday, so I'm thinking I might take a nightschool course in welding after I graduate (they always need welders). Then I can use my photos and illustrations to write a book about the experience. I'd like to do that a lot, take a risky job for a while and document it, or use it in some of my fictional writing/comicing.

I hadn't slept more than 3 hours in two days until just a bit ago, and now I woke up at 3 in the morning and I'm wired. Time to go study physics books and Film Noir posters. Maybe work on an illustration of a guy fighting a werewolf using Kung-Fu in colonial america. People are very specific about what they want in their books.

i am a student, work part-time at a church and spend the rest of the time being a house-husband.

[cokefantastic]

I produce a really bad radio show

[sleepytako]

I teach little kids English, and some adults, but mostly little kids.

It's super fun, kinda like that old Bill Cosby show but the kids are trying to speak in a foreign language.

Sleepytako, do you mean "picture page, it's picture page, it's time to play with picture page'?
