I work at a major US software company in Houston, and I'm basically sales support, and help in answering questions, whether they are basic or technical. I'm also the company-wide contact for certain pricing questions, a major contact for product distribution.
Currently I share an office with another dude. Of course, it's not so bad since the office is a corner window office.
Of course, this career is just a warm-up for what I really want to be: a lottery winner.

What A Horrible Night To Have A Curse
According to my profile: "Farting behind closed doors into leather chairs."
Not far from the truth, but while farting I do masonry estimating (pricing for brick and stone on residential housing). BORING but pays well and I get to play on UM like 4 hours out of the day most of the time.

Don't college fuckers work anymore? I've been working since high school, I'm only 25 and ready for retirement!

haha, I didn't work during college, but Summer did.
And I'll take a piece of that action. 26 here, and I feel I've put in my time and paid my dues. Retirement should be right around the corner.

not that I earn money from the distro or anything, at this point since there's been only 1 sale so far. My net profit is still about -$500 or something like that.
Last summer I was the master of grass mass genocide. That job ruled.

I work in a library. The job varies a lot of the time.
Recently, I was going around and changing records for books, also scanning everything into a barcode thing for inventory.
Before that, I helped people with their reseach. Customer service stuff.
Next, I'll be doing the records stuff again. That is all.

I'm a Software Engineer for a company that provides software to small airlines around the world. It's a decent gig, but the work is fairly mundane.

I also share this exact day job with you. Abusing a multicultural government's student grants for NSBM albums is the greatest thing ever.

I'm a failed engineer so far because my current job is as a security guard. I'm hoping to get an engineering job soon though. The perks with the security guard job is that noone tells me what to do and I can be online more than 70% of my work hours.
