    Electrician - of sorts. I work in film/television. We power the sets and use lighting to make actors/scenes look pretty. This job is the main reason I am purchasing a 4x4 Tacoma. I never know what conditions I'll find myself in, from sandy beaches to snowy mountains here in the NY metropolitan area.

    That's cool man! I would love to be able to make a living with my art work. Maybe someday I will be good enough to join the ranks of freelance artists, but for now....

    My occupation is Night shift supervisor in a drinking water treatment facility.

    Night shift has its pros & cons.
    The coolest thing is no one looking over your shoulder, and when things are going smoothly I get a little free time to draw lol.
    The worst is when things go south it's very hard to get anyone in if you need help.
    It can also be hard on relationships.

    I'm always drawing, painting, or wood carving. I have ADD so I tend to jump track a lot :D

    Finally started my own business doing property and construction management. Got tired of working for other dudes. I have a few other partnerships too one where I sell solar electric systems (this was my previous line of work), also I am buying rentals with a partner and on rainy days I day trade, mostly binary options on forex. Stay busy and productive everyday and everyday is different, I do enjoy working from home or close to it and doing a few different things. I think diversity is the key to stability.
