What do you all do IRL?

Out of curiosity, without getting deep into details, what fellow forum members do for a living?
Gonna be first here. I'm an engineer and I design various buildings (it's mostly related to strength calculation of constructions)

I.e. IT but not so pretentiously sounding, le petit IT.

That's what I thought I would be doing, many years ago.  Good luck & study hard

Oh, let's not start that thread. I'm not allowed to drink at lunchtime.

[Spaceman.Spiff]

I'm curious!

It seems like the community has a very wide variety of people, who are creative and talented.

I'm guessing that there are quite a few programmers because we have such a great modding community, but who knows!

Unfortunately, I must start this off quite boringly with my current occupation: School 

 Very unique and interesting, I know.

So basically, say what you do for a living, and ask others about their jobs as well

I'm a mechanical technologist but currently looking for work.  The factory I worked for got hit hard by the covids, and I was laid off so I could recieve the Canadian Economic Recovery Benefit (CERB) while they reduced to a skeleton crew.

I'm not down about it though.  It gave me time to reflect on what i wanted in life.  I've since undertaken learning Fusion360, wrote a novel, and am figuring out how to build an accurate model planetarium that includes eccentricity and inclination.

There’s an old thread that is close to this topic, and could stand reviving and possibly updating....

It should give you some info on may people here. Now excuse me while I get back to work retreading semi-trailer tires...
