Unemployed (And broke and in need of money) ATM.

Past jobs:

Waiter ~3 months
Cook -on and off over the years from 02-08
Home Depot -About a year, worked in every department.
Laborer - Demo work mostly, painted a lot, stuff like that. Over a year
Built trusses - Worked with a bunch of tweakers ~ a couple months
Put up barbed wire fencing in eastern Montana - One time job - Took about 3 days. $400 + good food.

Probably going to cook again, or wait. That way I don't have to spend as much money on food, I'll just take it from the establishment.

It's not official, but I'm building a house with my family and I have a decent knowledge of timber frame houses and how electric systems in a house work. That was just a fancy way of saying unemployed though. :(

The_Lost_One, your job sounds fun.
The only thing I probably couldn't handle with that job is the smell of the fix left on my hands.

The second one is called a firefighter, like me. Fire is way better than trail crew. It's a lot more fun, more overtime and then there's the hazard pay bonus, if you work for the federal government anyway.

I work for the US Forest Service as a firefighter on a hand crew though I want to jump over to CAL Fire.

If anyone asks, say you're self-employed. :D

And technically, you'd even be an employer. You know, in a way, you'd employ JLee. :P

Full time student living with my parents. I don't have a real job but I make a decent amount of cash running a LEGO store on the internet and keeping my eyes peeled on craigslist for things I can pick up, apply a little handywork, and sell for worthwhile profit. It gets me plenty enough to pay the usual bills (gas, insurance, cell phone...) plus a little extra

While you mention that, its rediclous how much some of those episode 1 sets I purchased as a kid are going for nowadays on the internet. A sith infiltraitor for $200? Insane. I don't think they even spent $200 adding it into episode 1 for all of 10 seconds.

I'm a QA tester (sometimes assistant lead tester) at Absolute Quality, an outsource company. We take other companies games and programs and find bugs in them. Mostly that means cellphone stuff, but sometimes it means a console or PC game too.

I'm probably going to apply to Bethesda again very soon... we'll see where that goes.

Technically it's a QA job, but we are expected to be able to do Dev work too.

Full time student who does work study and picks up seasonal jobs, the last one was a paid internship which was pretty awesome, but mostly at Bath & Body Works to pick up extra money on my breaks.

I graduate this spring and I already have a job interview lined up (Dec 29) for a job after I graduate. It's for the marketing department of Animas, the company that makes my insulin pump. They're wonderful people. They just got bought out by Johnson & Johnson, but they're still a great company and J&J has a good reputation for how it treats its people.

Anyway, keeping my fingers crossed.
