what do you guys do for living?

I am a fashion designer by trade, but now I teach patchwork quilts 8) .
I am trying to be financially sustainable by publishing my patterns and securing more teaching hours. It would help if I win competitions (kinda works like dance comps :roll: )

I am also working on a few projects in the salsa community here, hosted teachers, travelled with show groups, promoted clubs/events. Basically having a blast :D (though not a living :roll: )!
 
Computer Tech here. Macintosh, PC, monitors, printers, broken hard drives, etc etc, you name it, I can fix it. And if not, I can certainly break it worse and offer a shoulder to cry on if you lose all of your files. :)

I only came upon this line of work by accident...its just something that comes easy to me and it pays the bills (barely)...but every ounce of my free time is devoted towards my other hobbies and interests. 8)

Hoping to change careers one day soon if my other endeavors pay off...but I also think of going back to school to get my Masters...now that family responsibilities have changed...I may do just that!

I'm a mortgage loan officer for Wells Fargo. I work mostly with first-time homebuyers. Anyone looking to buy a house? E-mail me at hillm312000@yahoo.com and I will be happy to give you an idea on what it takes to buy a home!
 
I'm gonna join the student loans club here. I get a full time job doing whatever I can find over the summers, and take out student loans to pay for school. I'm in my second year of Honours Mathematical Physics at the University of Alberta, though hopefully that'll be Cornell next year. :)
 
Im waiting to enter the police academy here :D
Come July I sit my exam and off I go to serve the public.
Until then I am at home with my 2 kiddies, Zac 4 and Jemma 3. Hubby is a Chef so I have to thank him for supporting my dance addiction :D

SD Salsaguy...it's a lot easier to get house these days. I know your California and unfortunately housing is extremely high there. But come to Texas and it would be lot easier to buy a home.
 
Stay away from Austin, though. My twin lives there, and the housing prices have skyrocketed in the past decade or so, since the high tech boom in Austin really started to take off.
 
I graduated with a degree in Environmental Engineering Technology, and work for my local utility company. Potentially, I could see myself moving to a bigger city and working for an engineering firm, but it would take more than a desire for changing jobs for me to get up and actually do it.

wait a sec! you have a twin sister? :twisted:
 
Neo - w00t for physics! And Cornell... well... sort of... On a positive side, there are more Canadians here than I've ever seen in my entire life. They are weird, they talk in this funny-sounding language, and ice-skate really well. :P

Oh yeah, I am doing a PhD in physics. Although if someone offers me a good paying engineering job somewhere in Boston or CA, I'll quit in an instant.

:lol: :lol: My thoughts exactly when I read Pygmalion has a twin. :wink: Although, I wouldn't have called her the "evil twin" :lol:

So Pygmalion, are you identical?
