What do you do for a living?

[priebo15]

Ive been having trouble deciding what I want to do for a career since I graduated H.S. 2 years ago. I have the opportunity to be a Union Plumber or considered going to school for Accounting or the like and be a Loan Officer.

[initall]

Enterprise IT Services, Hardware, and Software Sales

[priebo15]

Though Id love a career involving powersports. I figured this would be a great way to get ideas! Post what you do to bring the bread home! (small posts=cell phone)

I'm a dancer with the Chippendales.

I basically dance half naked for a bunch of screaming women every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. 3 hours of work per night usually brings in about $800 in tips on top of my regular pay. During the week I ride my quads and clean my porsche. I also do the occasional "escort" for lonely women who need dates to their staff parties and other functions.

It's actually a pretty cool job . Last week I had a lady hire me as an Escort for some big corporate "retreat" her company was having. We flew down to St. Maarten for a week .... she paid everything for the trip and paid me my base "hiring" salary. It also helped pay off my University tuition for when I was doing my Masters Degree.

[priebo15]

Lol where do i sign up?

[beastlywarrior]

Never knew the Queen was into quads .. but sweet!!

As far as "where do I sign up" .... I'm sure you can check out the website or forward your portfolio to the head office. I knew someone in the business ... that's how I got my start.

Dude .... Sunday nights are Granny Nights. We don't even open up on Sundays . We're strictly thirsty Thurdays , fun Fridays and sexy Saturdays. I usually try not to even book myself any Escorts on Sundays cuz after 3 days of dancing I'm finished. But it's back to the grind tonight .... always lonely women on Mondays after their boyfriends have left them over the weekend.

Haha i wish it paid good. It used to be a good way to make money back in the day, but its slowly but surely getting taken away : / It seems like every day there is a new law that puts more limits on commercial fisherman.

[Canadian144]

Grade 11 student! woot woot.

Probably going into business, was thinking about engineering but I don't think I like science enough to do it everyday. My mom is a lawyer (a partner at one of the largest litigation firms in Toronto) and she says that to become a lawyer today, you gotta have an amazing looking resume and put in ridiculously long hours... back when she first became a lawyer there wasn't a ton of competition (her resume was fairly basic, no going to some random country to do volunteer work, etc) but she worked her *** off alot, she says that in todays world that's not enough to get by...and I definitely don't want to be a doctor/in the medical profession!

[k4f5x0r]

sophomore in highschool.

So far the choice is between teaching some field in science, and engineering.

[feuerstack411]

International Studies major and a "loader" (AKA pushing carts and getting peoples special orders) at Lowe's.

[sunco]

They say u should go into eds or meds. Something reccession proof - gov't is always spending money on education - work 9 months a yr. Meds - well everybody needs to be fixed and there are alot of us out there. U don't need to be a doctor just some related field that gets u in the "group"

[nemo25]

going for dentist its where the bank is at

[white tails]

Grounds Matience. Im the female dog. I work below my brother so i do all the things he does not want to do. lol jk . its not that bad for being 17, at least im not like to many others my age, asking their parents for money all the time.

Hence why I am a Sec. Math ED major. I like the idea of teaching and I am positive that I want to do this. There are just so many pluses to going into the ED field. Its definetly one of those self-satisfaction jobs. You are actually helping the youth of our nation and trying to put them in the right path.

The whole 9 months a year of working is also a plus:o

[onefast400ex]

I'm a Certified Philosopher. In other words, I do a lot of consulting and the weekly group preach.

[IcutMetl]

Always been into something involving machining; refuse to give up on the trade- it's always treated me well. Worked 9 years at a small shop; got a journeyman machinist card and manuf. eng. degree, installed Japanese CNC machines, Now I'm Application Engineer/Field Sales for a large company that makes industrial cutting tools; milling cutters, drills, reamers, turning, boring, carbide/cbn/pcd inserts, toolholders, solid carbide end mills...the whole nine. For anybody that digs manufacturing and machining, it's the "cat sass," and the bennies are pretty killer too.
