I'm a Durability and Development Driver/Mechanic for Chrysler.  I'm also a UAW Union Steward. 

I also run a small highly trained group of individuals preparing for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ, or the end of freedom in America, or until we get bored doing stuff in the woods... whichever occurs first. :D

Ok, I'll give this one a bump. I found this thread interesting to see what people actualy do for a living. My diploma reads professor of german language and literature and hungarian language and literature, but I work as a teacher with kids ages 10-15 and as a court interpretor. And I must say, I love my job. Especially in the summer. :D. Then it's workshop time.

I'm currently doing part-time work with a retail company, doing everything from replacing end caps at Best Buy to checking TV models at Sears, and putting coupons on cereal boxes (I wish I was making this up).

Aside from that, I have been getting a couple data recovery gigs on the side, which I find to be rather fun; as of right now, I just deal with removable memory, and just the software side of the equation, but I may branch out to internal hard drives eventually.

I moved up a notch since last year..now i'm a deployment functionality tech for BestBuy. I run cat5, install satellite dishes on stores, troubleshoot signal and content issues, VOIP phones, electrical/IS moves, build based on supplied maps. I also ensure vendor funding doesn't get yanked by making sure everything is 100% to plan..signage, parts, mapped location, alarms, signal/content. 

This month we are flipping the computer departments to make way for tablets and more notebook selections.

Network Support Technician for a large west coast retailer. My coverage region is WA and OR. That title pretty much covers everything from clearing printer jams to setting up WAN routers.

According to my wife, my job is making her life difficult... and I perform so well I think I'm due a raise!  :D

By day I'm a cargo surveyor.  I assess the condition of cargo when it changes hands from one shipper to another (ie from boat to a train), report any damages, confirm volumes and document everything.  This is a more relaxed version of the security/investigation field I had to retire from when I got far too busted up to keep competing at the level I was at.  At night I'm the head doorman at a local pub, as I like to not only keep busy, but I also like to keep a foot in the door (so to speak) in the industry I have been a part of for well over a decade. 

In what I laughingly refer to as my "spare" time, I run the empire you see before you.  It consists of, among other things, the world's largest Swiss Army Knife collector's and enthusiast organization (www.SOSAKOnline.com) and this site, which is pretty well the only real resource available to the multitool user and collector.

Oh yeah, and I run my dogs on a regular basis, play the odd round of paintball and kayak when I get a chance, but those really aren't a job...  :D

Def

I'm pretty well the same as above, but I've retired from the bar business.  As my day job picked up a bit, the bar job sort of fell back as the two were often in conflict and the day job pays a LOT better.  Plus, I own a small (three unit) apartment building, and that takes a bit of time as well.

Normally a Maintenance Engineer but for the last couple of years a full time Dad.  The fatherhood bit is much better but the pay stinks.  :D
well I'm back to work in maintenance (or Building Service Technician as per my jib title  :D) now that my wee one has grown up a bit and is at school.
