    I work for a SaaS company and work in procurement. Basically, I get to buy all of the infrastructure to support our technology. It's a pretty cool job and things are different every day, which keeps it interesting.

    I did well with the dot.com stuff years ago. Roughed it in a sucky job at a small company working for shares. It worked out well...we were bought buy a very large well-known company and I ended up financially set at 40 years old. Now hiking and bumming around working fun tech jobs....quitting when they become annoying because....the money doesn't matter any more. Oh and drinking excellent beer. Live your dreams...don't live your job.

    I've been a land surveyor (mostly oil and gas) for the past 9 years and enjoy going to work. It takes me to many different places so I get to discover many local beers.
