working on my Ph.D. in horticulture (turfgrass science), got 2 years left (hopefully). was a professional turf manager for about 6 years prior, that's where i learned to do a bunch of stuff myself...
 
Been a welder for 20 years. Six in structural. Ten as a pipe welder. Four in aerospace.
Can't believe I still like what I'm doing after all these years.
 
I'm a newspaper photojournalist. I shoot news, sports, features, food illustrations, portraits,fashion, and pretty much anything else you would see in print.

2 years left (out of seven total, including the M.A.) for my Ph.D. in theology. Not ordained, unlike some of our well-known pastors here, but working my butt off to get a good professorial gig (which has been my goal all along).

A huge underscore, then, to the "brewing gives me something tangible" crowd. I genuinely love what I do, but brewing satisfies the need to do something concrete. Also, it makes beer.
 
engineering/geo tech for an oil and gas company. hopefully going to grad school in the fall for geophysics. waiting on those acceptance letters.
 
im a printer. i make bread/bakery bags. today i printed 255,000 thomas english muffin bags bags.
 
I don't know what the **** I'm doing, but I'm having fun doing it!

2nd year Millwright apprentice
2nd year Automotive apprentice (general)
and 8 years in kitchens. (from fine dinging to greasy spoons)
 
I'd buy a Toyota in a second if I was in the market... Lotsa deals right now.
 
Public Defender.

Standing up to the man every day and getting paid for it rules.

Plus, I get to wear a suit everyday but not feel like I've "sold out."

Yep, I actually enjoy wearing a suit. I've had judges make fun of me for it.
 
21 years in the glass business. I'm the chief estimator for a commercial glazing sub-contractor. Mid-to-high rise buildings for the most part (until the economy took a sh*t). Unfortunatley, when the construction market went south it went way south. Being in Dallas we have it better than most of the country but it is still a struggle. I sold my first job of the year last week! At least I still have a job and I get to brew beer a couple of times a month.
 
Technically, I don't DO anything for a living! Those of you that work provide me with a monthly stipend...since I've been RETIRED for 9.5 months!

Prior to my retirement, I served as a music director at a large Lutheran congregation, working with the children in the Christian Day school as well as the adults involved in the ministry of music.

Since my hands have "made" my living for me, that works out well with brewing! It's a very hand-oriented hobby.

I'm a Radiation Therapist at a Cancer Center. I have absolutely no woodworking, gardening, electrical, or welding skills at all. But I do like to brew and drink beer!
 
Soon to be graduate without a job. I currently work in a deli. It pays the bills. But that is about all it does. I will be getting my degree in chemistry and it plays a big part in my brewing. I cannot build anything for !#$%.
