    Temporarily laid off, so my current profession is drinking beer XD... In all seriousness normally I drive a forklift/pallet jack on the graveyard shift in a refrigerated warehouse. -10F all night long...[​IMG]

    It’s kind of hard to give a title to my job but I would say I am an institutional custodial trust accountant. As to what I actually do, I audit trust portfolios on a monthly basis. Sounds pretty damn fun, right?

    I work in a municipal sewer department during the day and I'm a chef at a private club at night. Don't worry, I wash my hands in between shifts.

    Pretty sure that in earlier post I advised that I'm retired; update (as many know) is that wife and I are traveling and experiencing local food, beer and wine along the way. Cheers!

    Indeed, we have spoken about this . . . I'm very lucky that my particular corner of the humanities (anthropology --> archaeology) happens to have more job opportunities outside of the ivory tower than most others. But man oh man, the reality of young academic professionals has shifted dramatically in the last couple of decades, and even just in the last ten years. I feel for anyone else in that situation.

    Sidebar, any other archaeologists out there? And @jzeilinger, how you been man? Long time.

    There's a whole bunch of nerds on here. I can't say that I'm surprised.

    I'm currently a system admin at a small health care company. I'm hoping to move into some sort database administration role shortly, whether it's at this company or another one remains to be seen.
    I'm also a full time student (IST, majoring in software development and integration).
