#17562 I'm basically a manager of a pool/spa company. I design backyards, run a store, and I head out into the field every now and again to do repairs. I'm almost 30 years old and have been doing this for about 11 years, so this is about as good as it gets for me.

Eventually, I would like to open a performance shop, but thats a costly adventure I'm not gonna take just yet. Thats still a few more years away. :wink:

#17586 I'm a graphic designer & photographer. I'm probably going to be doing this for a long time because I like it :) I've been in it 5+ years so far. I work for an advertising agency, and a few years ago I started my own side company, 6th Gear Advertising.
People come to me for websites, ads, logos, photography, illustrations, multimedia, anything really. The payoff is seeing something that you created in a magazine or store, and seeing a company grow from something that you designed for them.

http://6thgearadvertising.com is also where Civic-EG gets its bandwith from 8)

And I do all that so I can afford to wrench on cars :thumb:

#17684 I'm a student, just got into second (of four) year now, studying to be a teacher in technique to kids from as young as 11yrs old up to 15 (or even 16 for late students).
So that's a lot of soldering, sawing, filing, painting, etc etc :)

To be able to live, I work at a temp agency, I work in construction, cleaning, production, and everything else they can throw at me, and I HATE it!
But I'm busy getting my taxidriving license, when I have it I can get to work at a company who have nothing but brand spanking new Chryslers 300C and fairly new Mercedes-Benz' E class :woot:

Last job I had before I went back to school, was being a projectleader at a large international operating Dutch bank, had a few jobs at several banks and insurance companies before I found out it really wasn't my thing.
