Default What do you do for a living?

I'm interested in what everyone here does for work.

I am the Supervisor for 4 departments that fall under the title "On Demand". Essentially we make fleet graphics for highway trucks, vinyl graphics at the factory level for Mack Trucks as well as decal busses, vehicles, the skytrain, boats, etc.

The company name is Ampco Manufacturers Inc. We are a Canadian Company and are well established in the Class 8 industry. We provide decals, labels, nameplates, fibre optics, instrument clusters, etc., to companies such as Kenworth, Peterbilt, Mack, Volvo, Western Star. You can view our website here.

I work for a multimedia company in the UK, my job title is Lead Tester, I basically run the day to day internal testing department where I work along with 2 other people. At the moment its mostly corporate E-learning, Databases and Intranets but we test most sorts of software and also outsource to other companies. We also do maintenance, service contracts, some consultancy and technical support. I also get roped into doing systems admin on occasion when there short staffed (which is about 3 years now).

The people I work with are great but its not the greatest job in the world and its only something to keep me in work till I find something that I really want to do. Still, its taught me allot.

I work for the worlds largest financial institution. My job is a bit boring and wasn't what I expected to pursue as a career. I used this job as a stepping stone for various reasons and goals.

I am about to jump into another role as a National training representative. I will fly throughout the states, training new hires. While I love the travels, my wife is giving me a hard time, on top of the hard time we are already having.

Right now, I am not happy with my current occupation. but am making moves.

I really love the part of being on salary now at work. I still do the overtime and am now responsible for everyone below me in my departmenst. The best part is that I no longer get paid for overtime as I'm on salary. The postion is great, the money sux in epic proportions.
