I work for the State. I'm there because it's practically the best job one could possibly have for a student. Paid sick and vacation time plus two hour lunches along with 5 hours of subsequent internet browsing is hard to beat. As I said, I'm also a student with one semester left then it's off to law school at McGeorge.
I guess I didn't say anything before because I really don't count myself as "DOING" anything yet. My job currently is not my career. And if I were to take my question literally, keg stands and teabagging would be the only thing I'd be bringing to the table.
Justin, I don't believe you've told us what you do yet. As for myself, I do nothing. I'm still in high school; therefore almost nothing I do matters outside my own life.
Well I wouldn't say top tier but they're in the 100. I had some help. Actually a lot of help. But nevertheless it is a relief. That process was gutwrenching...

I've always wondered this time to time, but now I guess I'm finally going to ask.
What is your job and why are you in that particular field? What brought you to where you are today?
I'm a graphic designer working for a tobacco and tobacco accessories (tobacco, cigars, pipes, papers, Bic & Zippo lighters). I design their catalogs and weekly mailers. Also some web design for their site. I've been in graphic and web design for about 20 years. Weathered the dot com roller coaster (5 start ups in 10 years).
Now with practically no design jobs in Philly and web design becoming a programmer profession, I am where I need to be to pay the bills. The downside to the job is the pay and commuting. The plus side is that I work with great people in a casual atmosphere. My boss gives me a lot of creative freedom in designing the bi-monthly mailers we send out. Even lets me illustrate the covers. Some examples...
Putting Da Vinci to a new twist to promote the line of Zippo NFL lighters.
A New Years baby (my co-workers son) for the 2006 mailer.
I'm 'involved' with a small outsourcing company that services the college textbook industry. I started doing desktop publishing at night, while working full-time doing solid modeling, etc.; it has gradually taken over nearly all my time.

i thought you worked in a zoo!
So do you do stuff with Solidworks or suchlike, or in solid modelling like John Holmes?

Guy - you're supposed to start first.
That's an inspirational approach for the rest of us to model ourselves on such autistic aspirations!

It might be worthwhile remembering that the British don't think very clearly on a Friday evening!
Sorry for screwing up the thread - by all means everyone please disinhibit yourselves
