What do you do for a job?

[bfrank35]

I presume a lot of PN users are photographers, but, what do the rest of us do

for a living?

I quit my job in December last year to train as a driving instructor what do

all the other members of PN do?

[Matt Laur]

I, personally, make the internet work.

 

Well, some days it feels that way, anyway. Just my little corner of it. I'll bet there are a lot of IT people here... it's genetic.

[William Kahn]

Happily retired from many jobs, now posing as a starving artist (lacking only a Paris garret to complete the image).

Job ? To quote Chip " (what the **** is that?) "

[joshroot]

I, personally, try make Photo.net work.

 

Well, some days it feels that way, anyway. Just my little corner of it....etc

 

Seriously though, Photo.net is my job now. Wedding photography, general editorial work, extreme sports photography, and corporate A/V-photographic support have all paid my bills at various times over the past decade.

I try to keep parallel and perpendicular universes from intersecting. It's a full time job.

I am a Realtor; licensed as a mortgage broker but have not practised for 3 years; licensed environmental inspector; My wife and I have an ebay business and also have retail outlets where we sell collectibles (mostly Fiestaware, which is hard to get in Canada); I have a network marketing business also (Zrii - http://AmalakiPlease.com). I also teach real estate subjects, both online and in the classroom and am just releasing my first e-course on non-real estate subject, and I teach Law of Attraction classes live. Also, am involved very actively in the local Children's Aid Society.

 

Wow - when ya write it down, no wonder I'm knackered much of the time!

I'm a technical publications manager for a semiconductor manufacturer in Silicon Valley. Been a technical writer for more than 25 years. About to retire to pursue my love of photography full time.

[ken munn]

I'm a copywriter.

 

Some sort of writing scum rising to the surface here?

[felixg]

Depending on when you catch me I am a photographer, writer, educator or research scientist ... or some combination of those.

 

No. That's an evasion. I am someone who has spent his life trying to avoid getting pinned down in a real job.

[sknowles]

I retired from a long career (hydrologist) to pursue a personal hobby into a personal business

(gee, photography, what a novel concept), and while I love being my own boss, being my own

staff is another issue and matter, but becoming a better photographer is the rewarding and

enjoyable journey on the long road of the rest of my life.

[beartooth1]

Sales Manager at a Dodge Dealership and my wife and I own a small business that sells Promotional Products to Businesses...However I do aspire to sell more than 1 or 2 pictures a year so I'm working on that.

[icog]

I labor at a glass coating plant by night to pay the bills. By day I do minor home repairs and remodels. I'm currently trying to make a name for myself as a photographer locally doing weddings and portraits.

[aramat57]

I left the medical field after about 20 years in OR and long term care. Since 1995, I have been the ever popular one-hour lab manager :-) I do some photography related things on the side, volunteer for Relay for Life and our county Symphony.

[shots worth sharing]

I recently quit my day job* in higher education administration to pursue a career in photography.

 

* Well, ok, retired (I just wanted to add some drama.)

State agency biologist, soon to retire and live in a camper for a year or two while traveling all

of the gravel roads I can find in the western U.S., along with 5D and 7II camera systems. I

plan to become incredibly famous for my landscapes, but unfortunately it will posthumously.
