I’m a jewellery designer and engraver… like my father before me… and his father before him. If my son can’t figure out what he wants to do when he grows up, I might be able to get him started in something. ;-)

Is that a Donnie Darko reference? Sweet.

I’ve never seen Donnie Darko… I am a third-generation jeweller though. ;-)

I'm a student and will be taking my GCSEs. After these four or five years of working hard at shcool I've noticed that I can't really be bothered with it anymore and just can't wait to get out.

I've noticed my grades going down a bit as well

In my first year in a private prep high school, transitioning from an extremely easy middle school with literally no homework, I am somewhat under stress and find that I may not be getting all a's, as I expected myself to do at an ease. Though, all together, I love it.

I'm a college student in California, majoring in Ag. Business. I've already got my A.A. degree and now I'm working on my Bachelor's Degree.

I have a BA in Creative Writing(fiction) and Religious Studies, which is why I work as a consumer sales representative for the US subsidiary of a Swedish company specializing in hardwood floor finishing technologies. I signed on with a guy to basically ghost write a story of his, and actually sold two chapters before he decided to stop the project. I guess that makes me a semi-pro writer?

I work with military veterans in the greatest town in the history of the world, Lawrence, KS.

I hear that's a rapidly expanding field.

I'm the Town Kook, Neighborhood Nut and warehouse worker at a local factory. None of them are fun jobs but somebody's gotta do them.

I recently landed a much higher paying job working for a small VOIP provider that serves customers throughout North America. (And I finally have an office to call my own) Working full time has impeded my college career significantly and I still have about 15 hours left on my associates in Business Administration.

Taught Advanced Placement European History in Culpeper, VA and am currently attending James Madison University for my Master's, and hope to transfer to get my doctorate.

I teach 8th grade U.S. History, French, and Reading. I'm a father of a soon-to-be 6 year old and a 3 year old. I coach Middle School Track and the Knowledge Bowl Team. In the summers I help a friend run his house/deck staining business. On my weekends I am a Mobile DJ, which is a euphamism (sp?) for wedding DJ.... yes, its all as glamorous as it sounds

I'm a college student...I'm graduating in August, and I have absolutely no idea what I'm going to do for a real job. Working on my writing and music all day doesn't exactly pay the bills...

What is your major, and why did you choose it?

Oh yeah, English/History. That sounds like a teacher or writer.

I will be going to school for Architecture. For the time being, I'm a golf course playability inspector and I moonlight as a self-employed facial hair experimenter.

We already know that! I'm more interested in how much you specifically get paid for each specific inspection and experiment. Keep it comin', Bro!

Now, I, as one of you, understand that there's a range based on what you actually do, but I'm interested in what YOU get.

Yeah, I might try substitute teaching. I really don't care what I do for a day job...my artistic pursuits are first and foremost...that's what makes me truly happy.

All too well.
