Where do you work?

[TBird1958]

Okay, I fondly remember a thread quite some time back in DP? in which we all said what we did for a living..... There's lots of familiar names here, but also plenty of great folks that I wouldn't mind knowing just a little better.
So what do you do for a living? What puts the bread on your table........and gets you a new Gibson Bass every now and then?  Like it, Hate it? Got a pic to share?
Here's where I work :



My job for those of you that don't know is: as one of three managers at Seattle Lighting's largest showroom just south of Seattle. And tho I make it a point to "antagonize them in small ways almost everyday, its really a nice place to work, as this pic shows.   

Cheers

At the moment, I only really work out of home or out in Venice,CA where my boss lives and has set up his business. Kind of just depends how important and how much work I am doing at one time to decide on which location I work from. Currently I have only really done Animatics which is helping me fund money to get the hardware and software to move up and get more work.

I'm a marketing rep at AT&T. Which is a nice way of saying salesman. I work for the Yellow Pages & Yellowpages.com. I used to like the job, not so much right now. It's a tough business climate right now. Hard to convince business owners that in a tight economy they need to increase their advertising or at least keep it where it is. We do the best we can and I'm grateful I'm working!!! It's helped me fund a lot of equipment over  the years.....

 I do a number of thing to keep the $ rolling in to feed my bass habit. My bread and butter is furniture repair/restoration for a large NE furniture retailer. I also have a small antique business-buy/sell, repair/restore. I flog stuff on ebay and most fun I buy and sell vintage basses and associated gear. Oh yeah I make replacement bridges for vintage Gibson Thunderbirds.

I'm working for Chase Home Finance, doing production support for their document imaging system.  Computer crap, I call it.  We're one of the very few home mortgage operations that's not in the toilet right now.

I'm a union rep for the International Brotherhood of Curmudgeons. 

No, seriously, I'm allegedly retired but I've done some contract work off and on for an attorney, and now it's on again.

I'm frightened of Uwe's office building.......I think its the living incarnation of 1984's Ministry of Truth.

I'm the Postman!

 When I look where Uwe works I think of what a pain in  the ass it's going to be to move out all those basses out of there when the time comes.

Until recently, I was a college admissions counselor. My new gig isn't as glamorous(managing a video store), but there's a lot less drama. I was the only man in the Admissions department at the college. I'm also going back to school in May.

Hi TBird1958,

I work in Camborne, Cornwall, England. I run a property management company renting out out houses. It is great fun as everyone who works there plays bass or guitar. There are no really good guitar shops in the area so thank God for ebay!

I popped a couple pictures at work today to celebrate that I'm actually working again! If the actors don't go out in June I may actually make a living again this year. Being back in my old career feels comfortable, but now comes the challenge of improving my skills and growing with the technology. So my job is basically getting paid to watch TV and movies all day:


My 'desk'.


This is what I look at all day.


This is what transfers film into an electronic signal.
