Occupation

[Zombie-F]

I know one could just rummage through everyone's profiles for this, but I though a thread for it would be pretty neat too. What does everyone here do for work?

I'm an RF/Microwave technician by trade. Odds are, you've seen my work in satellite dishes outside of your local affiliate TV stations or at your local cable company. It's probably a good bet if you have poor cable reception it may be partially my fault. :p

What are your professions?

[dougspaulding]

I work as an accounts payable clerk. And where I work, I verify Funeral Home and cemetery invoices all day long! How lucky, huh? :D

[Blackwidow]

I'm the secretary/accountant/interior painter for my husband's construction company. The best benefit from this job is that I get to keep all the leftover building materials for my props :D

[RAXL]

Well, after working with Zombie, BUILDING the RF antenna's for cable systems, I'm now a cable installer.
No Jim carrey jokes please. :voorhees:

[ScareFX]

I work for a local government.

So if you hear "Hi. I'm from the government and I'm here to help you.", run. Run fast. Run away. Far away.

[Pete]

I'm just a bitch really.

Also I am a full time student at the college where I hope to eventually graduate from.

[Sinister]

[Zombie-F]

[claymud]

I'm a student/writter/storyteller

[The Collector]

I'm a newspaper reporter/freelance writer/editor/musician

So basically, I get paid next to nothing to do a lot of work

[Rhiannon]

I am a Registerd Nurse... used to do critical care, ER type of stuff...Now I am a jail nurse... I've seen alittle bit of everything... from jock itch to a slashed throat...(that one was pretty dramatic)...I enjoy the occasional trauma and the unexpected things that come up...

[Tom K]

[Nefarious1]

I'm a receptionist for the University of Florida. I work for Finance and Accounting in the Purchasing and Disbursement Services building. I answer phones all day long. I have to be nice to people all day long, too. I mean sugary nice. That kinda nice that people either want to punch you in the face for or eat it up because you are just so damn nice. My husband pays the price for my having to be nice all day to retards! LOL

But, I get paid good money, have awesome health insurance and I absolutely adore the people that I work with in Purchasing. I really don't deal with the disbursement people. Just transfer a few calls over there everyday.

So, that's what I do. Although I am up for a promotion, so we'll see how things go! :D

[mikeq91]

Well I'm a student, but in the summer I am a Petroleum Distibutor (gas pumper) and a bread man. Keeps me busy and gives me some cash to pay for all those necesary things 14 year old kids need.

"When I grow up", I'd like to go to college, and eventually play in a band and own a haunted attraction, which would also have an extensive christmas display in december.

What did you want to be when you were a kid? Or what do you want to be now for the younger generation on Unpleasant Street?

[Blackwidow]

When I was a kid I wanted more than anything to be an archeologist...digging up bones and artifacts from ancient civilizations would've been a dream come true.
I'm determined to make it to Egypt someday!

[claymud]

Still hopping to be a writter... or actor... or both... Yippiy!!

[Haasmama]

As a kid, I wanted to be one of the few female fighter pilots for the Air Force. Then I grew up. Top Gun was my favorite movie for a while.

Now, I am a Shipping and Receiving Manager for a Worldwide Construction. Pay is decent and supports my duning habit and Halloween.

I'm currently a machine operator, in a plastics manufacturing company....but hopefully, that will all change in a couple of years, as I'm also studying for my degree in computer information systems

[SpectreTTM]

Hey Max

Just make sure you keep in touch with your friends at the plastics place.
I'm sure you can make lots or props from their inventory. (i.e seconds) ;)

Oh for this thread, I'm a software programmer for a financial company.

[DeathTouch]

It is too bad that the server can't tell you before you post a subject, that there already is a thread similar. Then you could just click on that thread and add on to it.

[Zombie-F]

Just do a search before you post a topic. Either way, I'll just merge it with the existing topic. :D

[Dr Morbius]

Man..I feel like COMPLETE idiot! Sorry for the hassles, Zombie, and to everyone who saw my first post and shook thier head and thought: "God, I was hoping humans were evolving forwards!"
