I work at a shipyard servicing and rebuilding engines.
I helped design large-ish electrical grids. 30-100k cables
Without the actual calculation bits, unfortunately.
Not very interesting. Bad software. Management didn't really care about the problem. I was there so the problem was "managed" from their point of view.
I work as a car photographer in a dealership. We sell cars online so whenever we get a new car or someone trades in their car I take pictures of all the features the car has. However when there's few cars for me to photo I'm also responsible for checking what cars are dirty. My only complaint is that I don't really care about Toyotas and I work for a Toyota dealership
I'm a psychiatric RN out in the community. I work with people who have thought disorders like schizophrenia at their homes or under the bridges.
I'm a product development engineer in the biomedical industry. Although from what I read it seems I should have taken a few extra courses in school and gone into software engineering. However I do still enjoy my work (not more than not having to work, but still.)
Healthcare
Realtor and brand and marketing consultant for our brokerage. Not the astronaut or veterinarian I pictured myself as a kid. But still, I’m happy :)
Quality control chemist testing pharmaceuticals. Most of what we do is for clinical trial use and research purposes. It's been a good job.
Maintenance, transitioning into automation tech.
I was/am a compositor/vfx artist for film and tv, but the industry has imploded over the last year so it's been a few months.
Video game qa
I don't see how that's not IT.
My primary job is IT, but I am starting a farm and worked on one as a teenager.
Emergency humanitarian response program planning/monitoring/evaluation with a UN agency.
Watch the mentally disabled. Most of the time they just need a friend so I get paid to hangout with em. Just gotta make sure they get their meds and food on time. Hell a few weeks ago I got paid to go to a baseball game cause he wanted to go.
Solar installer, I put solar panels on things and get them working. Recently my company got a reputation for competence with floating solar arrays so we've been traveling to build and fix them all over the country. Electricity and water is a fun combo.
I sell gold and silver over the phone.
I teach kids how to do physics, and how to write about doing physics.
UPS delivery
Quality manager in a plastic extrusion manufacturing facility.
Behavioral healthcare
I approve people applying for disability benefits.
That's awesome! Most others seem to only deny people applying for disability benefits.
Budget analyst
Commercial wide format print shop owner
I'm a truck driver, well nowadays more in the office than behind the wheel but I do still pull loads here and there.
Quality tech in manufacturing
I manage a service engineering team for semiconductor equipment.
Transportation engineer (in training) working for an engineering consulting firm! Primarily helping design active transportation infrastructure and road reconstructions.
