    I am a Personal Assistant to the managing director of a large car company. It's a very exhausting job looking at a PC all day. However it pays the bills and gives me plenty more cash to live upon.

    I kill trees, write for a newspaper, and build log homes.

    I want to quit the tree kiling this year or next. Getting tired of it. I hate trees. I really do.

    Surely if you hate trees, killing them is cathartic? You need love in your heart, to embrace the trees, be one with them.

    No, I hate them. When I look at them all I think of are the great burdens of noise, heavy lifting, and hours of toil and sweat.

    Got to pay slightly more into it, but it seems more secure then Social Security.

    I work with a notary.

    A notaris-notaire-notar is a jurist/lawyer/attorney/legal-expert (but he doesn't conduct lawsuits) working in the areas of real estate, corporate law, family law (mostly divorces and heritages) and seizure (hope this is the correct term).

    A notaris-notaire-notar is an independent jurist as well as a functionary. The documents made by a notaris are executable, like judgements are.

    Part of the job consists of mediation, trying to make parties agree about certain issues and thus avoiding law suits.

    Well, this is what I do in a nutshell, I hope it's clear. The profession is quite complicated and covers a broad area, so it's not easy to explain in a few sentences.

    The Belgian notary can be compared with the French notaire and the German notar. The profession should not be compared with the Anglo-American "notary public".

    I hope to be a notary myself one day. So other AndresTheCunnings can be my slaves

    I'm primarily a student, and should be getting my BA either in December or a year from May, then on to more schooling though I don't know where.

    I pay my room and board by working as a Resident Advisor in campus housing and get my miscellaneous income working as a consultant in the school's Writing Center.

    Someday I hope to be teaching, though my dream job would be working as a historical consultant in the movie or game industry.

    I'm a student and work part-time at a super market. Though next year once school is finished I'm going to work my but off (probably take on several jobs) and hopefully save up enough money to get me overseas.

    Still at school with really good grades but I have never been called a geek and I hang with a 'coolish' crowd as it were.


    Out of Interest.. Why do so many join the army? I've seen a few people say it in here. What was your own motive?

    Yesdachi, are you a politician?
    Motive: Conscription got me started, I'd get good pay, great job security, and there isn't much to do here, if I wanted more money and job security, I'd need to move to L.A. and work for an Armenian crime syndicate, so I think I'm fine.

    I work in marketing and business development, lots of creative strategizing on how to get our customers products to sell better, it’s a lot of fun most of the time.

    Marketing for a politician would be the ultimate case of getting people to buy something they don’t really need!!
