I run the receiving department for the local Sears here in town, which consists of bossing around 8 other employees. I love it, however it's not where I want to spend the rest of my life, which is why im a fulltime aerospace technologies student.

I'm an IT Liaison officer for the state of LA. Office of group benifeits. We handle the health insurance for all the state employees. They are very lenient in my department as far as the hours I work as long as the job gets done. Sometimes 7:30 to 4 but usually 8:30 to 5. I have a hard time getting up early. Best thing about my job is if I'm running late or need to take a sick day I just have to email my boss.

US Marine for the next 3 months (and past 7 years) then moving on to civilian life. I can't say it was all bad though, I clear $3200/month and they paid me to live in Japan for 2 years(so I really have to thank them for my obsession over my cars).

Living on commision is either fantastic or sucks balls... right now I am in the sucks balls catagory. Hopefully that will change, or I might start delivering pizzas too!
All the mortgage bankers I know are loaded, thanks to the continued blowing-up of the DC-area residential real estate market. I wish I had gotten into that when I first got out of college and ridden it for a couple years.

One of 'em just paid $725,000 for the biggest, baddest 2000 sq. ft 2-story Georgetown condo I've ever seen......bastard.

yeah... it's a commission job, so the cost of the house determines how well you get paid...

The average loan amount on the East Coast and West Coast is like $500,000. Here in Wisconsin it's about $125,000.

I'm a photolab assistant/cashier at DrugWarehouse. Oh, and a student in HS. I'm taking pre-engineering as well as calculus this fall, so hopefully next year I'll be at OSU majoring in Electrical Engineering.
