I run the postoffice for a big company.
IT Manager/Network Admin for 300 users with 10 locations in Atlanta, Florida and NC.
Novell Netware/Windows 2000/2003 and AS/400 network. (Sorry, no MAC's!)

That's right JB and Van. I am the spiritual Leader of the "Our Lady of Perpetual Orgasm" church. We have a growing number of followers...or a number of groin followers.
Ladies, I guaran-damn-tee that you will have more fun "eating his body" here than in some stuffy Catholic Cathedral.
And for you men, there is no immaculate conception here....
But please everyone, bring your contraception, we aren't trying to up our membership, just trying to keep our membership up.
We are gonna put the O in Original Sin.
You might not make it to heaven, but you will have a hell of a good time trying.

I am planning to be the next Charlie Parker or a Graphics Designer.
Just a Q for you Graphics Designers out there: How much money do you make? Just wondering. :)
LOL K8!!
Hmmmm, I may have to re-assess my aversion to religion. :P
Well you have my member up, TG!!!
Consider me converted! A Born again Orgasmite
Now where exactly are "services" held again?
How come every thread ends up on religion?

First I was a Drug Peddler, then I became a pharmacist, then I figured I'm good at being stoned so now I'm selling jewelry with stones, as an artist.
I'm not yet good at making money, but I do excel at spending it.
@tank girl,
Brilliant!!! Im a recovering catholic and consider myself spiritual but not religeous. After hearing of your religion I want in!! How do you get baptized? (im almost afraid to ask)
@lc50
Congrats on graduating DR. And my deepest sympathies on your impending debt repayments.
As far as myself I graduated from University of the Arts 2 years ago w a BFA in photography and am currently teaching at a small college in delaware. (that may warrant pity but its actually not that bad). In addition I am a freelance assistant, I shoot anything from weddings to sports events to commercial (Dupont and Upenn to date), and I show fine art photography in galleries from time to time. And OM I too fight crime by night. I like to yell "GET SOME" to unscrupulous villians right before I thwart their dasterdly plans. Lol

Slacker. Oh wait... I mean 3d Artist...
I play TT all the time, I have no time for a real job....
LOL TG!!
I'm a graphic designer and a freelance artist.
@Spunky: It all depends on your experience, your skills, your location, and your willingness to keep learning. I think starting wages for designers in my area is between $19k - $23k. That can increase tremendously in your first few years.

Oh yah, GRAPHIC DESIGNER. (worked for the Washington Post for a long while)
Only one thing I've got to say for all you designers under the age of thirty.
Watch out for the burn out. Hopefully you all are more on the artistic side
Than I was. I mainly designed magazines and got rundown by the weekly deadlines and 60 hour weeks.
Now I just do some freelance design.
Like a midget at a urinal, I was going to have to be on my toes.
Invite a retard to a picnic and you'd better expect to get drool in the potato salad.
