Starving student at san jose state university, junior in electrical engineering and avid 240 lover! Used to work as a computer service tech but quit for school (think Nick Burns The Computer Guy from SNL LOL!!!). Now I'm a weekend mechanic for the neighborhood ha ha ha.

I am independently wealthy and do not have to work.

In reality, I am a Finance and Insurance Manager at a Cadillac-Hummer dealership in Indianapolis. I do well enough to be happy and I drive a new Cadillac that I don't have to pay for. I also only work 5 days a week, most of the time.

I am a survey technician. When neighbors are about to shoot each other when they don't agree where their property lines are, I come in and attempt to clear it up while the neighbors are threatening each other and, sometimes, me. I've only had to get the cops out so I can do my job 3 or 4 times though. I got a degree in biology at Morehead State (in my hometown). I spent several years learning to do stuff like gel electrophoresis, spectrophotometry analysis, polymerase chain reactions, etc. I would like to apply all that knowledge someday seeing as how I'm still paying for school. Aztek72: Chris Duarte rocks! I think I'm the only one from Morehead who isn't from Texas who's heard of him.

Entry-level automotive technician. Pay is actually pretty decent, and I get raises every three months, until I go onto commission.

I work in the Underwriting Dept. of a very large insurance company. Soon going to be getting my agent's license AND finishing up my BA in History at Penn State (noticed a lot of fellow PSU folks 'round here).

I make OK money, and I've paid off everything (credit cards, etc.) except for my student loans. I'm hoping to totally pay of my student loans within a year. It'll be nice to be debt free for at least a week or two. ;)
