What is your job?

hi guys.

i am an interior designer working here in Singapore, used to do alot of other things back in the Philippines..hehe from being a food server, waiter, part time construction worker, project manager, managing director of an environmental organization, environmental camp counselor..haha

but of course, if Mario offers me a job in Herpaworld - im going to move to Mindoro..heheh

herpetology, keeping herps is what is keeping everyone sane from their day job. Smile

I'm very fortunate, I've been a househusband for the last 19 years. Before this I was a greenkeeper on a golf course.

When my wife was carrying our first son we both agreed that it would be better if I stayed home. My wife has her own business , a stationary company and always earnt more £'s than me. She is also the level headed down to earth practical one while I am more floaty and tend to live for the day.

It's been absolutely great! I've raised three children and had plenty of time for fieldherping and keeping exotics.

Reptile shop owner. Will also be a student in a few months as I am starting a degree in Life Sciences.

How come the word Stationary occasionally becomes a spam link in my post above?

I am a QA engineer in international (USA, India, Armenia) silicon-product company.
Several times ago I was Schematic design engineer .
I like my profession , but the work which I doing now boring me,
also it's quiet stressfull Mad

I like animals since childhood, but for biologist to get money in Armenia is a big problem, thats way I am engineer now))

Thanks Artem

I am a geneticist, a microbiologist and a food scientist/microbiologist. I have moved to Europe recently and am looking for a job. It would be terrific if I can find a venom research job or something similar.

I finished my diploma in economics in 2007 and started working as a business consultant for a well known international consultancy first in western Germany and since January in the south of Germany. My job ist very stressful but satisfies my as well. I get to know very different but interesting people around the world and earn enough money to afford my passion. If I would ever have the choice to go to the Philippines for sure... I would.

Hi.
I am an Electronic Engineer.

Isn't it? To me it seems quite helpful to have a "friend/enemy-detection" before opening a hot snakes cage.

I work at a concrete factory called Abetong, owned by the Heidelberg cement group.
I make pre-fabricated concrete walls and stuff 8 hours a day. Tough and dirty but i like it. My co-workers takes me through the days:) Im only 25 years old but my body feels like 70 some days, haha.

Tattoo artist for about 14 years.
Used to do real work too, welding and warehouse work...

I work for Fire Rescue, been on the job for almost 3yrs now. I must say working 24hr on and 72hrs off has got to be hands down the best schedule! The greatest job on Earth that's for sure!!!

I´m a security.Now i´m the operational commander in our company.

I am a Biologist (Zoologist) and work on evolution and paleobiology of mammals, specifically Miocene ruminants and equids. I also think that the 'best work' depends on every person, because as Lucas said you can have a not very interesting job that allows to have other things you like in your life... or you can have the satisfaction of having the work you love (like me), with some associated problems (e.g. science is not a very good choice in Spain if you want a stable life...).

Cheers, and as said before, good thread.

hello guys,
by profesion i used to be a chef, working i a few countrys. Coming back home to my country i was not happy
anymore. There aren't enough big hotels in switzerland, and no chance to get a job in there.
After a couple years in industrial production, (medical) i go bored and made my second hobby to my profesion.
Nowadays i ow my little designer furnitureshop. Since i was collecting these stuff for years it was just a step to come.
No i do not plan a reptileshop, the snakes are only for pleasure.
Cheers Rene

I rape and pillage the world's (mainly China) biodiversity for my own personal financial gain and hopefully supply this biodiversity to others interested in enjoying it in their homes.......

So it just means I am an animal trader...... What a Face

Great topic, very diverse group of workers here.
As for me, I am first and foremost a student, studying first to get my degree in zoology then proceeding to veterinary school to pursue a career as an exotic vet.
However my bill paying occupation at the moment is at a petstore. A fairly commercialized chain store where I unfortunately have to deal with corporate annoyances...but it is most certainly better than Mcdonalds.....
