Proffessionals

[SwordsMaster]

Ah, long time gone "get to know us better" threads....
I was kinda missing them, so here you go:

What are you working on (as in what is your proffession)?

And if you could define your work in a few words, what would you say you do?


Here's mine:

Computer Science student. It is hard to say what I do, but definitely not what I'm supposed to... Well, working on a weather prediction engine right now...

[nokhor]

[Big_John]

was a geologist working at nasa.. first worked on martian cratering characteristics using data obtained by the 'mars orbiter laser altimeter' (mola) which was an instrument on the 'mars global surveyor' (mgs). later, i started working on determining the capacity for the 'ice, sea, and land satellite' (icesat) to identify small-scale changes in climate-sensitive glaciers (small, tidewater glaciers) using the jakobshavn glacier in greenland as the case study.

but i got bored and now i'm studying for law school.

i've decided that 'working' is for chumps, school is where it's at!

Composer and musician. Unemployed at this time and "officially" unqualified. If I survive the coming June I'll be rushing for the university again (quit business school), to get myself "officially qualified" in what I am.

As for description, I compose music that nobody listens.

[Beirut]

Destruction of the natural environment.

Ode to my saw

Kill 'em, cut 'em, chop 'em burn 'em
It's a wonder don't you see
That the world would be a better place
Without a single tree

A little gas and a touch of oil
Is all my saw requires
To send a mighty tree to ground
Right through the hydro wires

My sweet chainsaw
Your teeth so sharp at 10,000 RPM
You are so quick at cutting trees
My well tuned sharpened friend

I love to see you resting well
Upon a fresh cut log
And my love to you my chainsaw friend
Is second only to my dog

[Shottie]

Student at my Highschool right now, Im shooting to be a teacher of History, to Highschool students Or a cop, I can be both but I dont know if I want to be. Kinda different choices when compared but its all good. I love History though and I really want to do anything with Medieval/European Hisotry.

[Hosakawa Tito]

I'm just joking here so don't take it wrong (I'm laughing with you not at you), but before one becomes a professional (not proffessional), one should learn to spell it. Don't feel bad, I had a hard time spelling sergeant (kept writing it as sargeant ), and now I am one. New York State Dept. of Corrections for 23 lovely years. I really wanted to be an oceanographer, but marriage, children, and economic realities steered me down a different path.

Free internet access all day makes keeping an eye on The Guild when I should be doing business searches a nice distraction

[Tricky Lady]

I'm a project manager at a translation office.

Not so cool, uh?

I don't know why, all the typos always show up in the most visible (and not editable) places....

I kept spelling "sargent"
