Smile What do you do for living?

Don't you always wonder what people on this forum actually do in real life? OK I'll start.

Software QA Analyst, people who get paid to break other people's software.

So, what do you do? Please give little explanation too. If you're a student give major please.

Year 12 loony lmao I make a fool of myself sometimes...i dont care if people are watching Just yesterday I wnet to get batteries. Came back to school with two subs, four hash browns, two kegs of coke (the super size) and a 40 pack of AA batteries. Just know that I went crusining with a friend and he got all that stuff. I only needed batteries!!! Then at recess we went crusing again, throwing 5c coins at our mates in the car behind us. I leaned out the window and hurled em at them. Then we found out that three cups of coke had spilt onto the floor of their car!! LMFAO!!! U just hadto be there.

I'm stress testing NovaHQ.net. You can ask P. He wants to know how much load/hits can this site take.

I've been a film maker since 1991. I work on tv shows, music videos, and indie films. I also own a small webdesign company.

I recently started selling ringtones for cellphones through Jamster.com. We currently have the #1 downloaded Fun Sound on the site.


This year may bring a huge produicing job in China. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Computer specialist. Basically, people don't know what on earth they're doing on their computer, they fill it up with viruses, spyware, cookies, and history files, I make it better than new, give 'em some simple software to keep it clean, and I'm done. Occasionally I get someone that needs everything redone, and every once in a while a computer needs to be built. I make tons off of cleaning them though. Building a computer is the most labor intensive thing I do, and it pays the least...go figure.

I'm slated to go back to college this august where it is my divine plan to double major in public relations and political science...I'm ready to make some real money, lol.

Minor in political science huh? Cool. People around here have no clue what a political science degree is. I get the same question over and over: so, are you going to be a politician? NO! Argh

I dunno what I'm going to do with my chosen degrees, except hopefully make a lot of money

Yep. Middle Eastern and Asian Politics was my major reason to go into Political Science.
