What do you do for a living?

[montego]

Just curious as to what occupations people on this forum have.

And are you currently happy with what you do?

If not, what would you rather be doing with your life?

Me personally,
I work in a factory. (not exactly my boyhood dream job)

Am I happy?
No, not really, although I make good money.
But I enjoy building Pcs & being tech support for family & friends in my spare time more.

My dream job?
Building, repairing pcs, being tech support for home pc users.

[Viper GTS]

Tech support.

I'll be a lot happier when I finally get the raises I was promised ($1.25+/hr).

What would I rather be doing? Driving to work every day in a Ferrari, taking two hour lunches, & working 6 hour workdays. Three days a week.

Realistically? Have the ability to go to school & not work.

I do mostly grunt work at a newspaper (ad bundles and inserts). Sometimes I get to proof, and very rarely, I go on scene and take a pic.

I don't mind the work, especially since it probably the best job in this area ( the job market here is roughly 0 ). I do worry a lot about the future though. I don't get paid enough to save much, nor do I get any sort of insurance through my workplace.

Well, in the summers I work in the local commissioners' office.

I'm happy there...but once I get my degree I want to work in DC. I'd be happy working behind the scenes of a politician.

But my dream job? President. Definately.
