And thanks TG, for establishing such an honest transparency for your religion. It sounds like it's acceptable and even encouraged to practice clergy-laity sexual relations!
Yet another.... Graphic Designer :) We do seem to spend a hell of alot of time on the internet don't we :) Fuck It. I still get my work done exceptionally fast and meet ALL my deadlines, unless I'm waiting for some slack ass to get me some copy for our latest ad or something. I work for a Wine & Spirits Importer, and yes, get a nice five finger discount on all our TOP SHELF Premium spirits :D :D Which makes me a part-time alcoholic as well.
I do all kinds of things here, ads, brochures, POS, product design, exhibit design for trade shows, web design, you name it, I probably do it. I'm also lucky enough to have to do things for both Trade and Consumer markets, yeah... REAL lucky. I also help one other guy with video work. I do all this freelance as well.
Then I'm a clubkid on the weekends "Gimme a Funky Ass Bassline!!" and have been working on spinnin' starting this year. Although ThinkTanks has SERIOUSLY takin' some time from all that. I might have to take a small break after the tournament :)
N oh yeah, I landed this Full-Time job when I was 19 so I never made it to college. I'm 23 now.

FOR EXAMPLE!!!
I got into the office an hour early to do a bit of work on a freelance job I'm doing for a motorsports company, I had to give my mom a ride to work this morning. What did I do first thing?? Hope on this forum. Now its an hour later and I need to get to work here, and haven't even put the disc in yet for the other job.
Come on!!
Rabban,
"Exotic" is not part of my job description, but Erotic is part of my personal life......
As far as my job goes, I own a multi-media company that specializes large scale Video and Photography projects. We have completed significant video projects for many international brands (Sony, Apple, Panasonic, Dell, HBO, CNN, etc), currently have TV commercials running on the History channel and A&E TV and have recently produced three music videos, all of which have played in rotation on MTV.
For most video projects these days, I no longer get my hands of the camera (which was a tough decision to make) since I am now in the Directors seat. Being the control freak that I am, the editing is done by me. No-one touches the edit suite but me. For photography, I am on the camera.... Plain and simple.
I love my career becaus I get huge doses for both the right and left sides of the brain to feed on. Incredibly technical, and wonderfully creative at the same time.

-sigh-
Another designer here.... Packaging designer actually. (decent chance that if you see it in the supermarket, I may have done it...)
Wal :P
Right now I work 3/4 time as a painter (interior & exterior repaints mosty) & part time as PC tech for small offices in the downtown Sacramento area.
I pursued a degree in English at the University of California, Davis for a couple of years before I decided to take some time off. That was about ten years ago... Don't know if/when I might go back to finish up, but it certainly is a LOT more expensive now.
Since then I have also been:
A bicycle mechanic, photographer, small business owner, manager for a book distributor, freelance web designer, musician.
I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up :)

Great posts...interesting...keep em coming

I've always been a capitalist pig. Albeit a small-time one.
One of my first business was to sell firecrackers. Every summer we would go to the USA ('cause I'm in Canada) and I would buy a whackload of them. Firecrackers are forbidden in Canada!!! Yup they are. (So are semi-automatic and automatic weaponry, plus we have a national gun registry for gun owners. Very different culture than the US. For the better of for the worst).
I would make some good money selling them individually or in pack of 16. Aw... I remember the Black Cats!!!
One summer coming back from the US I got 'busted' at the border. The lame-ass custom dude found my cache under my seat. My mother still laugh when she remember the utter sadness that could be read in my face. So yeah it put a term to this import-export business.
Another good scheme I had at the time was to sell Colecovision games. My friend would come and play and I would charge 5˘ per game played, or 10˘ if you played using the Turbo Wheel and Pedal or the SuperJoystick. MAn! I remember the chart I did keeping track of my friend accounts (cause they would play by credit of course). We were about 10 years old! Kinda cute.
Every time my old friends bring this back we laugh. I was such a scumbag they say! Lol I was part of the exploiting class...
And many more trade stories...
Actually their legal in only some states. Like here illinois you get fined for having fireworks, but yeah you can buy guns which is "cooler" then fireworks %)
I go to 8th grade, and I build web sites for people when I am not doing the first thing. :)
A gig as a Regional Sales Manager pays the bills in my house. Tanks and these forums are my relaxation.
Hmm lets see being 14 not many jobs I can do ,but wait!
Im a student and also a private at my army cadets corp XD got promoted from sewer scum cadet
About 2 weeks ago he he he.... And possibly by the summer I may be a corpral

Meanwhile keeping busy doin odd jobs, mostly fixin peoples computers n such...

@MajorPain: Right now we have several rap acts including myself, and a couple R&B singers... We r in the early stages now, altho we have already recorded a Mix CD, we have new equipment, so we plan on recording it over again. Also, we should have a website up soon. The plan is to have a full entertainment company with many different types of acts. Rap is just the basis.
I'm considering getting into selling Advance Weapon Systems. I bet there is a good mark-up on this.
I also like to Reconstruction Economy. You bomb'em. You build'em. Haliburton, anyone?

Gnomie methought you were in the travel industry?
Wow, gnice memory Hugo! Here's Gnomie's travel industry videos.
Well obviously I was a mere gnewbie when they hired me for the ads and cliff-diving was my gneatest trick.
I can only reiterate that we have gnever heard of Travelocity in the UK and that anyway, they stole the idea wholesale from the adorable Amelie .

Wow... TG, you got pews in this church or just beds? Maybe you should just skip the whole church and bring your orgasmites to Mattress Discounters. Lol.
I'm 13. I'm a homework-doer, primarily. I also breathe, go to school, and type weird messages on Thinktanks forums.
When/if I grow up, I would like to be a writer. But all the writers you hear about always were McDonalds cashiers or US soldiers or professional bagpipe players or something noteworthy first. And they always grow up wanting to be astronauts or actors or pro baseball players. I grow up wanting to be a writer, try to go straight into writing, I'll probably end up a laywer or accountant or something else suitably boring ;).
I guess I think I'd probably okay at the writing technically, in terms of general command of the language. But I'm not sure I have the creativity or ideas or persistence or patience or even plain luck that I might need. Who knows.
All I know is that a few years ago I met a writer in person who parasailed off cliffs, spent time tying complex knots, and went on a fennel-picking expedition in which somebody mistook hemlock for fennel and ate it. Ever since then writing has sort of appealed to me. I get to do fun and crazy things and say I'm working, my commute consists of turning on the computer, and I don't have any coworkers or bosses to deal with. Sounds good.

You did say you owned a landscape company rotfl
@miss kitty, LOL! Actually my specialty tends to be more leather than sensual massage. Click the period at the end of my last post and listen in.
@Grey, Histology Technologist? What exactly is that? I tried a quick google search and figured all my questions would be answered at Histology-World. After that exciting flash introduction I knew it had to be something that would make you a babe magnet, so I tried the Histology quiz game, but I bombed out and still have no idea what it is. Instead I'm filled with questions like;
What type of epithelium makes up an alveolus?
A. Stratified squamous
B. Ciliated columnar
C. Cuboidal
D. Simple squamous
Will the answers to this make me a better TT player?
@ KBC WOW that sounds gooooooooooooooooood daddy !!!!!!! ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
@ Miss Kitty..I will have my booking agent contact you..the sensual massage usually lasts 50-60 min. Or untill the hot oils runout & then we can get things trimmed up on the other end :P ;) and then the fun begins...... XD
@ MOE LOL! I'm looking forward to it. I cant wait to see you run your green fingers through my bush (es) lol. ;) ;) ;) let your fingers do the talking.
I hope you and KBC are well toned for this exotic dance. :P :P :P
