Better than a degree in Web Design.

I manage the books for my father's small business, but am in the process of transferring that job onto my successor. It’s a terribly boring job that was supposed to hold me over while I went to school. Now that I have graduated, I hope to soon be putting my computer engineering degree to good use. I'm looking to get into hardware development, but will settle for a software job if necessary.

My main job is applying for jobs. Between that I am a Business / Informations analyst.

I got a degree in neuroscience but realised that I hated the red tape of academia as much as the prospect of killing rats for a living, so didn't persue it.

Best job: Security for the McLaren hospitality suite at Silverstone for the British Grand Prix 2002.

Computer geek by education, unemployed computer geek by trade. I've only done desktop support type stuff, but wanna move in to the networking side of things. Anyone need a computer geek? Will move for work.

Double Major in Computer Science and International Business...

If anyone is looking for an entry level federal law enforcement position, DHS ICE has just announce nationwide vacancies for Immigration Enforcement Agents.

https://cbpmhc.hr-services.org/IEA/

Go to www.usajobs.gov to view the vacancy announcement (under "jobs in demand"). This is a good job by itself, but is also a great stepping stone for much better fed agent jobs!

The guys in Dallas that have this job are pulling down over 80k a year. Overtime includes such terrible duties, like escorting deported aliens to their homeland VIA Amsterdam! Oh, and they get to say that they work for MIB...

I make 1-800 commercials. Roll-a-Hose, Better Pasta Pot, George Foreman Grill, that sort of thing.

I do hardware repair and web design for public computer labs at the U of I. And my earned degree is in Animal Science. Following your schooling for the win!

Best job I ever had was summer grounds crew for my hometown school district. Bowling alley mechanic is runner up, and I suppose my 4-year stint as a vet assistant runs a very, very distant 3rd. As in, I liked it at the time, but I would never do it again for any amount of money, heh.

I did security for a couple of MotoGP races at Donington Park (10 mins from where I went to Uni)... man the bikes there were crazy, and that was just the spectators! The firm I did the work for hired army guys in on leave to help out. Basically the pay was rubbish for them, but they did it to have a free show. At night they'd jump on their bikes and ride around the track.
