Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler What Do You Do?

Yep, i have to admit, pretty much everyone here has pretty good, important jobs. except me! lol. Maybe its just the audiophile breed, since i started early, could be a sign of things to come.

I'm a lawyer here in D.C., but want to be either: 1) retired like most of you old guys, (2) a student like you young guys, or (3) an IMAX editor like Spiff'n'Me (just cause it sounds cool).

Small town sports reporter who gets paid to take pictures.

"Senior Network Analyst" for a billing software company. I work evenings, hence most of my posts being during that time.

Attorney(criminal prosecution, estate planning, investments, taxation).

Research scientist (primarily sub-Arctic ecotoxicology with environmental contaminants like mercury, pesticides, petroleum, mixed in with experimental design, field sampling, analytical chemistry, statistical analyses, journal paper publication, that sort of thing).

Such is the oh so exciting life of science.
I spend way too much time researching the wrong things. The quest for audio knowledge is killing my days.
I blame Ian.

Where to begin... my current employment state shadows two of my life beliefs

1) Never turn down a job twice
2) Those with little willpower should keep busy at all times, lest they be tempted by the fun thin... er, evils of the world

-My day job, I own a design and development company (print layout, broadcast and industrial video graphics and animation)
-When not doing that, I run a live event video production crew (mainly concerts and sporting events)
-When needed, I work as a lighting tech for my bro's documentary crew (which I came by in a strange way, offered to cover for a grip one day and turned out I've got an eye for lighting)
-I've also been offered the audio engineer gig at the arena, still not sure whether or not I'll take it

Other jobs (reverse chronological order):
-Shipper/receiver for an importer/exporter - "10 gross of maxipads to Tisdale, Saskachewan? I'm on it!"
-Various construction related jobs (drywall delivery, insulator)
-Licensed airsmith/Paintball referee
-Hospitality industry (ie: the guy spitting in your onion rings)

Ajax, I'm in the same boat, my wife has health problems and I'm also looking after my 81 year old mother

I applaude both of you in your endeavors as caregivers


I, hopefully, won't have to be a caregiver for some time yet as both my parents are still very healthy as are my wife's.

I appear to be the only one that actually gets dirty on a daily basis. I am a Mechanic and work for a large courier company up here in the great white north. Started on a career in Computers at university but decided I liked to play with cars more.

Well i am a Transportation Specialist , LMAO i drive a Truck so i get around all of Ohio pretty much occasionally go across the border into Northern Ky but i can't complain don't have a Boss clinging to my Neck tellin me what to do , i do jus what Larry the Cable Guy says I " Git er Done " lol

I am an Industrial Engineer (BS from Rutgers) working in the medical device industry. I basically now am a Project Manager, installing new systems, mfg equipment, new packaging for the products. When I am not doing project work, I develop computer simulation models of the company's manufacturing processes.

Sorry if this sounds like a resume, but my position has been eliminated after 19 years (as of 4/30/04). The people at our career center keep telling me to network! So why not with members of my "Axiom family".
