What do you do for living?
« on: January 31, 2014, 07:35:46 am »
Hi, everyone!!!

I don't know if someone asked this before, but if not... What do you do for living?
Please... mention only the legal activities! ;)

I have been a software developer for about 10 years (does the site need more collaborators?), and that is how I get some money to build my game collection!
What about all of you?

Cheers!

Yeah, this topic's already going somewhere - I just don't have the time to look for it find/link to it right now...

I'm a developer as well! Been at it for about 10 years as well. My day job focuses mostly on auto-industry specific web based development.

As for collaborating - do you do any Android or iOS dev? The Android app is slowly being worked on and will be opened sourced in the near future. I need lots of help on that as Java isn't my area (nor do I have the time for it).

I study computer engineering, but I already developed some IT stuff. My scientific research scholarship in university is what helps me build my game collection. It's a tough quest, although.

I feel like most collectors are in the tech industry lol. Most of the ones I know personally are software engineers, system administrators and things of that nature.

Not me though, I'm a clinical social worker.

Right now, Im a stay at home dad ... but with my kids both going to be in full time school starting next summer, I plan to dabble in the world of pest control. Before I stayed at home, I was an animal control officer for about 5 years as well as a vet tech for a few more years. While doing the vet tech stuff, I also helped train birds and raised reptiles. At one time, I had 19 different turtle enclosures in my apartment. I would love to get a herpetology degree but there is nothing like that locally.

I'm an analyst for Coca-Cola. Most times just showing them how they can save money.

Not very good at programming languages, but I can write SQL queries if there is a database or SQL server that runs the backend of this site.

I am still in high school at the moment, but I have been working at the family business doing different manual labor jobs since I was 10ish like sorting hangers and stringing laundry bags.  Last year I started working a lot more since I could drive and somehow ended up in the office one day where I am now building spreadsheets/binders for all of the delivery routes.
