Status: offline 		I am just curious as to what you do to afford this hobby. I guess since I asked I will start this...

I am a Database Admin / IT Manager / computer tech / Lan Tech / Inside Sales rep for a video manufacturer. In laymans terms, I surf the internet for 6.5 hours a day, drink coffee non-stop, and laugh at my co-workers cause their email isn't working.

Status: offline 		I work as a Graphic Artist (bet you'd never guess) for a company that is a marketing and software solutions provider. (No, we don't do Telemarketing)
(http://www.marketingconcepts.com/)

So my day consists of drawing pictures, retouching photos, and preparing them for print and web. (And for RCU of course )

Status: offline 		I am a software consultant under contract to the US Army. I write software that transfers images of drawings to CD's. I prefer 'C' but work primarily in C++. I write the installation scripts in InstallShield. I have done some Fortran, Java, a lot of HTML, and some ASM. The great thing about my job is that I learn something new almost every day. In my spare time, I....hmmmm....it has been so long since I had any spare time, I can't remember what I did.
