I'm a student. Which means I rely on temping a lot.

I am a high school student.

Lifegaurd so you dont drowned in posts

I'm getting a job at happy harry's

its a local convenience chain

For the past 10 years I've been working in the Private Investigation field. I do alot of infidelity cases (almost 75% of my case load), and do fraud and lost persons cases. It's an ideal job for a guy in a wheelchair, as no one really pays any attention to handicapped persons!

I'm a freelance writer for my regional weekly paper, The Northwest Weekly.

so what does every 1 do for a living ?

Please the one I love.

im a student, so the government gives me money

and as long as i never earn more than £10,000 a year (i think) i never have to pay it back

I'm a freelance writer for my regional weekly paper, The Northwest Weekly.

I've actually read that paper when I went fishing on the Skeena. Not the best written paper, but not bad for a little local one. I laughed at some of the editorials in it though. Kind of silly.

trade embalmer and my own worst enemy

lol...yeah, i think it's pretty good considering it's free so we don't have much of a budget, and we have a small staff. I like that it's an independent paper, it's not run by any big media conglomerate, like our daily paper is, so we have more freedom with regards to what we write.

i'm a high school student, which means i spend most of my time keeping the people around me from killing themselves while looking for a place to fool around with my various gentleman friends.

High school student, so I leech off my parents for a living. Though I do work part-time at a grocery store for gas, insurance, and entertainment money.

I'm a clown. :)

You are my hero, LG.

Does that involve a pay raise?

student. but i've had a couple of part -time jobs.

I mooch, therefore I am (a student)

I'm a cheap lazy student so I leech off those around me:D

I also work weekends at Matalan but I don't like to admit it....

Ah ha! You caught yourself out there!! :p

I wish I had a job. Or at least a playboy lifestyle

Year 12 Student. So...nothing.

Like a lot of people I'm a student (A levels, not uni), so I have a part time job working in Allders.


Go me.

Hey, there is nothing to fear from clowns. John Wayne Gacy was a clown. :D

I'm a student, too.
Part-time jobs (worked as a rafting guide this past summer, that was one of the best jobs I've had in a while ... :D)

No, I usually do my observations from the van, when I do go into public, I am pretty cool, and appear to be there just by chance. They have no idea how I make my money. For all they know, I'm that disabled man from town who doesn't give candy to trick or treaters!

That sounds awesome. I wanna push you around and be a sidekick for a day on some kind of Cheaters TV show adventure! Bust daddy with the crackwhore sounds like a lot of fun.

I'd take the telephoto pics and get you coffee on stakeouts!

I'm a high school student who goes to one of the top 10 h.s. in the country (US), so homework is my job. And listening to boring and senile teachers is another part of it. Sounds soooo incredibly fun, doesn't it?

At the moment I'm a bartender in one of west Sydney's (Australia) more well known bars. I've completed a course in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering. And I also started a greenkeeping (working on a golf course) apprenticeship late last year but decided it wasn't for me. Not too bad for a 19 year old...

I'm a student and I'm a Staff Reporter on my school paper

Hm. I'm a student, But I also do some work in the same field. Ever heard of the Doe Network? I deal mainly with unidentified and sometimes missing persons cases.

I'm a computer (and digital camera, and printer, and software) salesman. Also technician, advisor, cleaner, warehouse operative, till bitch and food fetcher, as is required. Where In The World? Well, that's the clue.

student, boring....uh

Yes I am familiar with it. But I stick mainly to divorce and recovery. Lots of money there!! Keep doing it, you'll make some decent bread. It is important work too.

Grad student(Playwrighting, BA in Film & Digital Media), work at a non-profit ticket office and occasionally get paid for what comes out of my head. I'm trying to invert that, one step closer...fingers crossed at possible continuing gig......(2, even....)

I surf NS for a living. :p :D

Well son, it isn't all glamorous work. Sure at times it gets hairy, dangerous, but most of the time you have to fight off boredom. I could use a youthful ward though (my wife won't let my sons or grandkids help). You'll have to play third fiddle behind my assistant, Joyce! Here are some photos:

I am a shoe salesman, though I would like to get into the locksmithing trade. I used to cut keys for a hardware store during high school, and have been interested ever since. I think it would be an interesting and exciting career to try. Plus, selling shoes sucks, though it pays the bills...

It's urgent!!!

Full time college student majoring in Sociology and getting a certificate in American Humanics. In a few weeks, I will start part-time work for the university doing their web pages. Once another T.A. job comes up, I will take that as well, but those are rare at my university and I already took one T.A. job so they might give it to someone else. Once a professor starts new research, however, I will be number crunching for them.

I'm also looking for a summer job in the Non-Profit sector and want to somehow relate it to Sociology since I'll be doing my honors research in the fall.

Full time uni student. Doing Business in Econs and Finance.

What disability prevents you from reading books? I'm not being flippant, I'm curious.

( Puzzled look ) Seems like this topic gets posted every few weeks on here.

I'm a retired/disabled Vietnam veteran, and run my own online business offering life coaching and conflict management, Paradigm Associates.org. The business is currently not-for-profit, but will soon be changed to a "for-profit." My Website is currently down, but should be back online later today.

I'm also writing a book, and have applied for a three-month contract with a sub-contractor who trains Iraqi military. I seriously doubt I'll be hired due to my age and disability, but should find out soon.

I know poppy-right?....this thread is like a boomerang. Thats fine cause I just spent the last 10 minutes reading everyone's job cause I'm sure I dont remember what anyone does except loony golfballs.(yes i know its goofballs but i call him golfballs).

I'm a Safety Admin for Project Management-(new title...weeeeee!) for a Large General Contractor. Currently onsite of a $75 million hospital remodel. We do hella big projects. This is considered a "small" job. shite!

Unfortunately, even for that they expect you to show up for work. I'm bipolar. Until I'm stable, I'm unable to keep a job. When in a depressive state I can't get out of bed. When in a manic state I have better things to do. Like drive to the next state and buy a house. Besides, librarians do a lot more than read.

Oh boy, does that sound familiar. How about $300.00 worth of beads that I got bored with after making three necklaces. Of course, there was also the time I got a divorce and followed some guy out of state.

I am a 3D modeller/animator, who also specialises in motion graphics - my work appears on television, film, print media and proprietary kiosk-based game systems. I am also, unfortunately frequently between regularly -paying gigs. Oddly enough, right now I have three projects on the go at once - and not one of them is paying well, or soon. I've had offers for supplying my work for free...one of which I might just consider for the potential exposure.

This business was great five years ago, but now I'm seriously entertaining the notion of working at a coffee shop in order to make ends meet.

Animation? Cool. I tried to get into that, but I just couldn't get my head around it all.

I used to make well over 50K with full benfits - nowadays studios offer a take-it-or-leave-it $10/hr, short-term part-time contractual gigs...no benefits, no job security, never enough work, and incredible competition.

I got into this line of work 'cause I like the work, not 'cause I wanted to spend every waking moment not spent in front of my computer schmoozing with studio managers and pressing flesh trying to sell my services.

Blehh. Now I'm depressed again.

I'm researching for my PhD - so I get paid to be a student :)

I'm a college student (psychology major/sociology minor) with a part-time job as a shoe salesman.

I, too, am researching for my PhD (biomedicin/immunology). Besides research, I take courses and have about 10% of my time allocated to teaching "ordinary" university students.

I tried going too college but it was so monotonous. More over they taught me no more than i could learn on my own in far less time. Not too mention every instructor felt the need too throw in their 2 cents worth rather than just teach the facts.

I'm a Swede studying composition and classical piano at the music conservatory JJK in Prague, The Czech Republic.
