What do you do?

[sayers6]

I got to wondering today what you guys all do for a living, or plan on doing, or what you're going to college for. I plan on going to college and learning computer programming so I can create websites and fix computers, and hopefully someday work from home. What about you guys?

I work for CSC (Computer Science Corporation) doing web development for the government as a contractor.  Fun stuff, frustrating as Hell someti... Almost all the time, and it pays real well, so I can't complain.

If you want to get into entrepreneurship doing web development from home, you better find a niche and cling to it.  There's no way you'll ever get to learn everything, so pick up a few popular topics, and go for it.  If you want my opinion on something that will guarantee your job security, that would be Javascript (arguably one of, if not the most important language of our era, or at least the web).  Bare in mind, the pay may not be the greatest since you'll be relying on having a steady amount of clients.  There are plenty of companies out there though (I can think of two that I personally know of off the top of my head) where developers work from home, so the possibilities are out there if you still want to work for a company, and still work at home.

I'm currently pursuing a major in pure mathematics at the university of waterloo, I'll likely tack on a major in mathematical finance with a minor in CompSci for fun.  I plan on doing graduate work in pure math, preferably analysis, and if not that, then a quant finance job would be nice.

My dream job is to get a degree in business and open my own cigar shop.

More then likely I'll get a degree in business and end up working in a dead end job the rest of my life, going no where and accomplishing nothing.

I'm a better one. ;D

I just finished my Liberal Arts degree, but still not entirely sure what to major in... I've considered everything from photographer to cosmetologist to helicopter pilot.
Basically I just don't want to sit in a cubicle all day every day for the rest of my life. I wouldn't mind it being part of my career, just not an every day part... x.x

[T-Rok]

I'm going to Thompson Rivers University for my Bachelor of Arts for a counselling position. I currently work at The Real Canadian Superstore though.

I'm a High School Student for now, finishing up the half of a class I need as a requirement for graduation. I plan on taking a year off to get into the work force temporarily so I can pick up all the info I can before I have to actually deal with that stuff all year round every year. And after the year of work is over, Ill go to community college working part time, and get my general education while deciding if I want to go into Psychiatrics or Politics. Both interest me :3

I graduated high school in '09 and still don't know what I'm going to do. I was supposed to join the military, either air force or navy, but to be honest I'm worried about getting stuck in a shitty job. I feel like my parents just want me to join to get me out of their house, and they act like I can make a decision over night that will impact the rest of my life. What I really want to do is become an electrician or something and not even pursue a career in the military. So at this point, I'm not working right now, have applied to many places, and haven't heard back from any. Maybe I will end up joining the service because right now the economy sucks ass.
