What do you do for a living?

Recommended Posts

So what do you all do for a living? I know some of you are able to live off of jumping, but what about the rest of ya?

Im a freelance photographer, currently working for Scanpix covering sports and news and whatnot. I started working for them in January, after a 4 year period on my local newspaper. And im really happy, knowing that this is a place i would like to stay for a while, having the opportunity to travel and see the world.

Im really looking forward to this summer! being in a new job, and enjoying my first full season of skydiving! I feel really fortunate to be able to do two things that i really really enjoy! Im covering both the Extreme sports week and the World Base Race this summer! so if you are attending either of them, hit me up!

But enough about me! what do YOU guys and gals do?

Oh, here's a photo from work, just chillin before a game of soccer.. (notice my strategically placed tonfly sticker)

I''m in the Air Force. KC-10 flight engineer. Deployed right now and about to go fly. (no jumps for another 2 months!!!)



If you EVER find yourself at McGuire give me a shout. We'll do some good food & maybe some beers! I'm about 5 minutes from the main gate & under one of the landing patterns. KC-10s & Kc-135s buzz my house often.

I'm a research associate at Genmab (NL), which is a pharmaceutical company that develops antibodies to cure/slow down certain forms of cancer.

I'm a very small cog in a huge machine, but somehow I find the job gives me a lot of satisfaction.

You should become a TI instead - I bet *all* your students would look relaxed on the video. :)

Long haul comms - I make sure the troops over here can call Mama and send emails.



God bless you. B|;)B|


Thanks, but it's the troops that are over here doing the real job - I just 'keep the lights on' for them, that's all.
