There are so many CPers all over the place. I'm sure some of you have interesting jobs. Just curious: what do you do for a living? Where do you work? If you're a student, where/what do you study?

I'm 23 and live in Oregon right now working for a chemicals company that supplies to pharma companies. I was originally hired to be a marketing assistant and do some inside sales, on top of that I am now also the network admin, and might be indefinetly.

I also do web development work on the side.

Just asked them for a raise, I'd really like to get a BMW M3

Right now I'm just at home doing web design work whenever I get it and figuring out what 3D Animation school I want to apply for and trying to find places that will fund me since I'm already $8000-$9000 in debt from a previous course.

I'm currently trying to establish myself in the niche market of male gigolos for ladies on fixed incomes.

In my spare time I'm a student.

OOSD?

I took that two years ago. And here I am, doing a job I love, making good money.

Trouble is, it has no relation whatsoever to anything I did in OOSD.

Does GIS technician have anything to do with being a gigolo? That's right, I went there!

Man, I'll trade you student loan debts. I'm just finishing my 6th year of university studies with one more to go. It's going to suck when this career doesn't work out and I've invested all this time/money already...

Long-term student currently whoring for the Oil and Gas industry in Banker's Hall. Heading to Austria in Spring to start the ol' MA, hopefully. I wonder how much 11,000 Euro's will be... and when the best time to transfer the money is? Anyone have stunning advice?

I wish! Did the ol' BA right out of high school and got into law school after that. One more year to go and I think I might take a break from school...

I also work part-time (full-time in the summer) for what was Canada Immigration.

Swap your dollars for GBP first, our election will be in May so the pound will probably fall around April and then shoot up again win Labour win in again.

Im 23, and an office manager for Next Retail.

I get to walk around outside all day. Great when it's nice weather, terrible when it's not.

Moose and cougars and bears, oh my!
