What do you do for a living?

Just curious what you all do for work?

I'm a computer programmer for a small company which makes a video editing application called VideoReDo. I'm actually technically a self employed freelance contractor, but I've worked exclusively for them for a little over a year now. Prior to that I worked as second in command at my Father's print shop for almost 10 years. (started right out of high school) I did all of the graphic design work, helped customers, made copies, was the on staff IT guru and even ran the printing press for a couple of years way back when we first opened.

So how about you?

I fly Fighters in Korea... And day trade stocks in my free time. Well, that's more of a hobby since it couldn't be considered a serious source of income.

Probably not surprising to find another fighter pilot on a forum for this car. I'm an F-16 pilot by trade, but I'm currently on the staff -- which means it's my turn to do a desk job for an assignment, so I'm probably buying a 135 to compensate for the speed of my desk chair.

Good cross section so far. Usually these types of forums are populated mostly by people in the IT industry.

I work at CDW as an account manager. It basically means I am in sales. And also work for Uncle Sam in the Marine Corps Reserves. Ohh and then I also work part time at Macys for the past 8 years. God, I need to get a hobby instead of work!
