I'm a cardiac monitor tech and I work lots of CRAZY hours (sigh).
I watch for changes in rhythm in the hearts beats of 42 cardiac patients.
Next week I transfer to our new Open Heart unit. I'm a little scared!

I sit in a control room in front of 27 monitors with 10 keyboards. Plus 5 redundent computers, 5 back-up computers, plus 5 alternet computers.
I have the most boring job in the world but what-the-hell, it pays the bills and I don't have to sweat or get my hands dirty. The toughest part of the job is the coffee pot. It's in the kitchen more than 20 steps away. That's 40 steps X 15 or 20 trips every day.
Whew! That's it for now. Coffee break.......#8.
Actually my official title is (Bulk energy) Transmission and Distribution System Operator.

Blake is in receiving and inventory control for a utility, race trailer manufacturer. He works lots of overtime too.
I own a commercial sewing company.... building interiors for van, RV and motorhome manufacturers.
We live in the RV, van, motorhome, trailer capitol of the world.....almost everyone around here is in the industry either as a manufacturer or supplier.

I'm a bum... Anyone got a quarter? ;D
While working, I am a database analyst/developer. Like a few of the above, I am also currently out of work and hoping to go back to school to upgrade a few classes.

I am the (really long title... get ready) Listener Relationship Management Administrator for a Radio company. We have 33 radio stations, and I oversee the database of those stations' 2 million plus listeners.
Basically I help with the sales, marketing, and database aspects of our stations. Keeping the listeners happy is what I am all about! ;D

The technical term for my title, as of last Sunday, is Bush Economic Policy Receiver. In layman's terms that just means laid-off (with a good chunk of the rest of the company too).
And just when that $1.04 tax-cut relief was showing up in my paycheck too.

I eat rather well, too well. Hoping to continue that.
My CH has been gone for 12 years but my epilepsy has been around for 44. I have mostly sold collectibes and antiques. Sometimes I made a buck but not often enough. I still sell crap on ebay but so far it ain't enough...no transportation.
Answer is: Not much
