Bringing home the bacon.

IT Engineer (Programmer) for some Airlines...

 

[Ryan_PA]

I think I may have one of the more boring jobs on the site. I am an IT project manager. I mostly coordinate server migrations, application cutovers and automate processes. I like it because I have no direct reports and my projects change every 3-6 months, so if I do not like something, I know it will be ending soon.

 

[mrfocus]

Well my main occupation is a student (accounting), so I don't really bring home much bacon.

My second occupation is working at the LHBS. It pays for my brewing.

 

[Danny013]

I work as a graphic designer for a printing company part time. I go to school also, trying to finish up my degree in biology. I just finished the Paramedic program, just waiting to take the state test, and then I'll be working on an ambulance somewhere, hopefully! After I finish up my bio undergrad, it's maybe nursing or med school!

 

[blacklab]

I play cowbell for a variety of artists.

 

[Brewmando]

I make the propeller blades look purty (and more quiet) for those giant wind turbines you might of noticed popping up around the country.

Congrats!! Are you taking National Registry?

Mmmmmm bacon! Oh yeah...um, Firefighter/Paramedic for a suburban DC county of about 1,000,000 people, workforce roughly 1,500 people. 24 on, 48 off. It pays the bills.

 

[Danny013]

Congrats!! Are you taking National Registry?

Thanks! The plan is to take the National Registry once I get the state done and get settled into working. I'd like to get it in case SWMBO needs to go out of state for school or anything.

That's the nice thing about it: you can go anywhere in the country and get a job. I pretty much had to because MD requires it and gives you a license by reciprocity.

Cheers!

 

[Bedlam]

I am a child and adolescent psychiatrist.

Not kidding.

Currently, I'm on faculty at a medical school and am Medical Director of a child/adolescent inpatient unit. It's so cool to teach medical students and residents as part of my job.

 

[jcarson83]

I'm a general contractor. Just got done building a four story parking garage.

 

[PsicloneRN]

Operating room nurse. Hands deep in your guts!

 

[DeathBrewer]

I'm a Shipping/Receiving Supervisor for a biomedical polymer manufacturing and contract R&D facility.

we're growing fast...it's been hard to keep up, especially when we can't get inventory straight. that's why i'm working on labor day weekend

but it's good to have job security and the paycheck is pretty nice

When nobody is around for me to annoy, I'm an electronics technologist. I find ways to be an ******* while being a technologist too. As I said, it defines me and everything I do.

Me too... I love my field.

Firefighter for the largest fire department in the country..The US Forest Service.

I bleed that horrible color of green, my whole being smells like wood smoke... my body is broken. I love it, occasionally....

Guess what I'm an Electronics Technologist for? A company that builds weather stations, mostly for the US Forest Service; I build, service, help design the equipment and travel to the sites for AOM work. I haven't been to VA yet, but I've met a whole whack load of your Forest Service buddies across the country.

My hat's off to you guys, you don't get enough credit for the work you do. It's hard, messy and dangerous.

 

[Duckfoot]

Telephone man by day, superhero by night, brewer by weekends....

 

[The Pol]

I fly airliners for a living, and I spend that money on brewing...

 

[shecky]

Sports writer for a newspaper. Was great for a long time. I've covered eight men's Final Fours, 13 bowl games of various sorts, pro football and baseball, among others, but given the state of the industry, it's not so cool anymore.

 

[TwoHeadsBrewing]

Software developer for a small local software company developing applications for the blood banking industry. I stick mostly to C#, ASP, AJAX and SQL Server, but lately I've been messing around with PHP and MySQL.

[Kevin Dean]

I brew enough beer on the weekend that I'm not quite sure what I do during the week.

I do the IT stuff for a web marketing company with a web hosting twist. I do some PHP programming with SQL (Postgre and My), manage our little server farm, the systems (bare and virtualized) in that farm, build and manage the PCs and servers in the office.

I think. It's all a blur.

you do good work!

 

[stever]

I wrote this.

This message.

The one you're reading.

Oh, and I work at a college Media Services dept during the week, radio on the weekends and freelance voiceover work in between.

haha, awesome.

Been watching your most recent work. Nice job.

I'm a software developer for a small company that does medical transcription systems. Not the automated voice recognition (though we're trying to get into that), but systems that handle recording dictations and delegating work out to transcriptionists overseas, delivering the final document back to the doctor, and billing the client for the work. I headed up a rewrite of the old software system and I'm currently working on post-alpha testing of the product.

So I guess that makes me head code monkey.

 

[stever]

I'm the IT Manager, tech support monkey, pinball repair tech, email admin, web admin, etc, for a company in St. Louis.

Deep down though, I am a restaurant/bar grill owner waiting to happen.

 

[boo boo]

I'm a brain surgon but have thought about becoming a double naught spy or a fry cook.

In real life I'm an Oil Burner Tech.

 

[knarfks]

ICU nurse in a transplant ICU. Need a new liver, kidney or pancreas come see me...

 

[RobertHSmith]

I keep my wife sane, who is going to be a brain surgeon (really). Before that it was working 2 FT jobs to keep the bills paid while she was in school.

Professionally, I do IT work, data warehousing and advanced TSQL scripting are my forte.

 

[Wrathbone]

I'm an analyst for an affiliate management company, while pursuing an acting career.

 

[FairbanksBrewinGirl]

Office manager at a state university for a small group of undersea scientists...they do the fun stuff, I do the finances so we can pay for it

 

[Rick500]

We're writing and testing software for a large restaurant company that shall remain nameless.
