What does everyone do for a living? I'm curious to know how many people on AT make their living outside of computers. Bonus round: what's your dream job?

I do tech support in the tier 2/3 range for a small software company. Some of what I do is also in the systems administration and software QA realm so its fairly interesting.

Dream jobs are creating a successful tech startup or becoming a voice actor (I know...what the...)

Your turn!
 
software engineer here.

dream job would be to work on a snorkel or diving tour boat as one of the guides down in some place tropical.
 
retired/disabled. Used to be a C programmer.

I still do the odd web marketing on the side for extra $ or as a favor to frends.
 
I am a lawyer.

My dream job is multi-million dollar lottery winner. I would be really good at it, too.
