Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator or as "we in sewage" call it Turd Herder.
It's not very pretty but it pays well (it better). That's why I don't wear my tank to work; Thriftys go right in the washing machine. Another huge benefit is no one ever comes to visit or bothers me!
I'm also a musician, I used to do it full time but after my kids were born I came off the road and now do it nights and weekends. I do historic American popular music on original instruments, mostly early 19th C.

Hi folks.

I used to be a computer lab assistant for a university back home in Australia...where I was also studying Psychology.

Now, I've graduated, I've immigrated to the USA (where my wife has landed a job teaching at a university in Atlanta), and I'm unemployed.

My current "job" is applying for positions vacant - fun, huh?

Nowhere near as interesting as others on this forum!

cheers

I'm a reference librarian in a medium-largish public library system.

I am a horologist. Ok, get that dirty thought out of your head, think Latin. Horo = hour, ologist, one who does or works in that area. So if you really want to know in more easy terms, I work with Time, thus my license plate; TIMEFIX. There you go, I repair clocks.

DALE.
