I braze, test and insulate copper cylinders for hot water storage. Doing this job inspired me to start building my pack, with all the hands on skills I’ve learned.
3d art for tabletop / miniatures
Previously, I worked as a computer programmer. My job required a great deal of skill. Like extremely good. I could write code in an hour or two that would take most of the guys I worked with a week or more to complete.
I used my downtime at work to write my first book.
Now that I’m in upper management, my days are filled with interruptions, meetings, and politics.
I’ve been trying for months to finish the last two chapters of my third book. 
Welder. Mainly on drainage systems for finfrock multilevel parking garages.
I work as a development exec/marketing liaison at film studio in Canada. I say “film studio” but we also deal in TV/music. I guess “media company” is the proper title. I’m currently on the mend after a health scare a few months back & expect to be let go as soon as I’m able to return since my entire department has been gutted in the last few weeks. Why am I telling you strangers this? I don’t know. The prospect of being let go half excites me and terrifies me. It excites me because I’ll be free to do what I want in life and it terrifies me because I no longer have the excuse of “well I can’t just up and quit my job to go do what I’ve always dreamt of doing” and the fear that I won’t succeed. Also: the money. I will miss the money. Canada isn’t exactly Hollywood when it comes to the amount of competitors I can get a job at and expect to make the same $$. Ugh…life is so much easier when your a kid and don’t have a mortgage, bills, employment concerns. It’s just school, friends, Saturday morning cartoons some chores and playing outside.
There’s a sad thought I’ll leave you with. At some point in time everyone comes inside from playing outside for the last time & didn’t realize it. Same with Toys. One day we played with our toys for the last time & didn’t even realize it. Kinda sad. Everytime I see a kid nowadays I wanna grab them & say “cherish these times! One day they’ll be gone and you can never get it back”. Remember when adults use to tell you that & you didn’t really listen? Life was carefree and wondrous.
I’ve been a bit wrangler for the past 32+ years.

Fulltime student, and when I am not doing that, a reactor operator in training.
I’m a UPS man. I’ve been there for 21 years and counting. Covid has made my job even MORE fun when everyone was stuck at home ordering stuff for months and months and months. LOL!

IT Tech Support, Remote and On Site
So, I’m currently working as a front-end developer for a tech startup in San Francisco. I landed in this role about a year ago, and it’s been a wild ride since then. The work is challenging, but the environment is super supportive. Plus, there’s always something new to learn, which keeps things exciting.
But I must admit that it was quite difficult to find this position. I come from a small country in Eastern Europe, and initially I worked for this startup remotely for 6 months, and then they offered me the opportunity to move with my family to the USA.
I had to do this because the salary in my native country was too low to support my family, but also reaching the USA is a dream that I have had for years.
There’s a tiny chance that this message will be read by people from outside the USA who have an “American dream”, but if anyone does, I recommend that you start studying about employment in the USA today (click here for more about that), and place job applications to US companies. This is your ticket to making your dreams come true.
I used to do VFX, then theme park design. After a few years and a Master’s Degree, I now work as the VP of Personnel in the Financial Services industry.
It is neither as glamorous or as well-paying as I imagine you expect it to be.
