Title says it all really.

I better start off by saying I have finished A levels, awaiting to start with an electrician for the summer, then hopefully an apprenticeship :)

Right this second I'm working in a forensic lab, and at the weekends I work for Gala Bingo as a web chat moderator. Yes, I get paid to talk to housewifes in chatrooms.

In August I'll be a chemistry teacher. Exciting stuff.

I'm a CAD tech.  Nothing exciting, but it leaves my evenings & weekends free for playing gigs.  8)

I do lots of stuff -- design audio systems, home theaters and other acoustic environments; freelance audio engineer and studio musician; freelance arranging. I'm also an itinerant guitar teacher, depending on what else is going on in my life. Busy life and wouldn't have it any other way!!

I'm a Contract Delivery Manager, so I sit above the Project Managers.  I sort out installing new BIG electric supplies.  Playing with about £30m of projects at the minute bt trying to swap them all for one REALLY BIG one.........  Although I'm a Mechanical Engineer, so usually call myself that, it's not quite so tw@tish sounding  :D

Business Consultant for an IT company - sounds very pretentious, doesn't it? It isn't really - just trying to help customers figure out how they could do things better.
