I've been a few things in my time [nealy 30 years].
Most recently I was an International Technical Consultant for a software company providing solutions for the wiring harness industry. That is all the wires in your car.
While I was there I worked in France, Lithuania, Israel, India and the UK - I even did some [one days worth just before I left] work on the Vantage's wiring system at one of the Jag plants!! But I wasn't that interested in wires or cars, or being over looked when promotion came along. The company was called Harness Software, but when we were bought out by Mentor Graphics we all quite quite a bit of money from the share save deal. So I packed my bags and left to do an MA in Communications Studies at Leeds Uni. [I had been done a self taught A-Level in media studies during my last year at Mentor].
I did quite well on my MA, so signed up to do a Phd at Bradford Uni - which is where I am sitting right now. The subject of my doctorate concerns the implications of cinema assuming technologies and practices akin to television [that is Digital Cinema (video aquisition, projection, satallite distribution, provision of alternative content, flexible programming, live presentation, etc)]. I'm about 16 months into it at the moment - with 20 months to go!
I also put magazines on the shelves of WH Smiths.
I also used to work in a chocolate factory - the "House of Fundraising" in Melbourne [nasty charity chocolate with that gritty white stuff - I loved it!]. This was perhaps the best job I ever had. All the chocolait you could steal. great!!

James Bond figures aren't "Dolls". They are "Action Figures" or collectible figures.
Anyway, I do all of the marketing for a company that makes a tailgating barbecue that hooks onto an SUV or Truck's hitch to make it easier to get it to a game. I do a lot of writing, graphics work, developing relationships, trade shows, and promotions. It's a lot of work but Las Vegas trade shows are great. Plenty of time for blackjack and craps.
I did Internet marketing for years until the "dot-bomb" wiped me out. Where was 007 when we needed him? Before that I sold newspaper advertising.
I've never worked in a chocolate factory but my mom worked in a bakery when I was in high school. The free pastries were amazing.

I work for a bank, in the unit trust business as a relationship manager. Interesting to see Athena works for a pre-school because I am also the Chairman of a pre-school close to where I live. It is a charity and run by a commitee, has 6 staff and about 40 children (although not all at once). I don't get paid for the work but it is rewarding to make a difference. Have been there for nearly 3 years.

Eeeeeeeee... I've just gotten my first real paid photography job! Everything else so far has been college, unpaid or just for fun... it all had actually paid off!!! I'm sooo sooo sooo excited! I had the interview today at 11:15am and got a phone call telling me I was hired 3 hours later at 2:15pm.
I'm working with a photostudio who has a client... that client is Petco. So right now I'm their Pet Photographer. And I work tomorrow on my first shoot! This is so incredibly fantastic!

I'm 18 and I'm a sales clerk at Fred Meyer. Think Wal(star!)Mart, but classier. You Brits can think Marks and Spencer, but with worse food. I'm in the Home Electronics department, with the printers, computers, CDs, movies, TVs, and photo processing. Just got done with an eight hour shift today, with a sick-as-a-dog assist. manager who was forced to come in. He was running a fever the whole time...if I catch his illness I'll be furious at the bigwigs who dragged him in. Oh well. I took a bunch of vitamin C and charcoal and water and ibuprofen, so I should be all right.
It's my first job, I've been there almost two months, it's not bad. I'm getting the hang of it. Things are pretty low-key and there's plenty of downtime, but I hear the holiday season will get pretty insane.
