Whats your occupation? I'm curious to see what everyone else does to pay the bills. :cool:

Babysitter, psychiatrist, negotiator, attorney, hit man, wheeler dealer, public relations, sales, marketing, controller, President, CEO, HR, delivery boy, clerk, gopher and first class peon. The buck both starts and stops right here.

Yes, I own my own business (travel services industry).

2 jobs

I'm an auctioneer. I handle estates, antiques, business liquidations and auto auctions. I also have a day job resolving disputes on credit card transactions for the largest credit card transaction processer in the world. I'm a busy fella. :D and I like it that way.

ADVERTISING COMPANY

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN!
AND THE WORST PART IS THERE IS NO ONE TO BLAME ANYTHING ON.

For over 25 years though - I was "A Reliever".
I would find people who thought they could play pool and RELIEVE them of their CA$H.

I hold an executive position at Walt Disney World Resorts overseeing the accounting offices. Im in charge of this department, but I still have 14 bosses to answer to - so Im still pretty low on the totem pole. I've also worked for IBM, Aai Technologies, Zeroday Technologies, as an accountant back when I had a cubicle to hide in (been there-done that-hated it.) The first thing I did when I took over this position 14 months ago was to have all of the cubicles removed and replaced with open workstations. Cell phone and gameboy usage is down 100% and our productivity has shot through the roof!
 
I have been in the Air Force for 5 years and work in Military Intelligence doing communication support. My shop has an unclassified, secret, top secret, and gamma network that I support. I am getting out of the military July of next year and plan on moving to Austin and getting an IT job. I am also considering going back to Iraq as a civilian contractor.
 
Residential marketing specialist and soon to be Billing supervisor for the eletric company in florida. It sounds a lot bigger than it is, really its just customer service
 
Inspector and Community Educator for the NYC Dept. of Consumer Affairs. And yes, my agency licenses and regulates all billiards and pool halls in NYC.
 
I am an Area Sales Manager for a national medical imaging company. We look for opportunities to JV or partner with a hospital (system) or clinic and bring mobile service or fixed sites to them in MRI, CT or PET/CT (Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography) for their patients. We just helped out FEMA by deploying a lot of our scanners to the SE region.

We put up all the capital to fund OP imaging centers, fixed installations, Cancer Centers, even MRI guided tumor ablation suites.

I work out of my home office and my territory is W. WA, MT, and AK. I am currently going to night school as well for my Masters in Healthcare Administration.

Is it a coincidence that most pool players on here have technical minds?

I also have an online travel business and an online T-shirt business. I house pro, run tournaments and teach in my spare time. My 2 kids don't need me as much anymore, but I find ways to stay busy. lol

I'll bet that's a real pleasant place to work. :rolleyes:

and yes I speak CISCO NOS.

I think you mean Cisco IOS (or perhaps CatOS). NOS is their Network Optimization Solution (consulting) service. They do most of the speaking :D

Now guess what I do ....

Dave, BSc EE, a pure network engineer having designed and implimented data networks for over 20 years in over 20 countries on 4 continents, but I really love good old Saskatoon where I got my start with Develcon Electronics Ltd ... anyone out there remember working on mini computers like DEC PDP-11 or HP 3000s, and getting a 'Request' prompt to connect ? That was a Develcon switch (perhaps at UC Davis, UC Irvine, HP, GE, DEC, US Senate, NASA KSC, JPL, Argle Diamond Mines, Continetal Bank Europe ? )

Purdman :cool:

Since we are placing ads here, I need 2 fulltime marketers in the NW - the pay is around $35-50,000 plus bonuses. Laptop, cell phone and fax and corporate AmEx card included. Cell and office phone, fax and cable internet paid for. Also all collateral materials, car allowance and mileage plus paid training.

One needs to be in the E. WA and one needs to be in the Portland/Vancouver area. Work from your home office, great for someone with kids at home. Should have strong Sales or Marketing background, medical preferred. Bachelor's degree preferred.

PM me if you are qualified.
