What do you do for a living?

I already know probably more than half of the responses wont be serious!

Me: Area Director for two neighborhood publications for affluent neighborhoods.

Truth be told most of the people I make a living off of are snooty arrogant rich white people. But people love reading about what their neighbors are up to. The newsletter thing we distribute once a month is given to houses in affluent neighborhoods, with stories about these people. My money comes from the ads people pay me to put in the newsletter. Businesses that cater to rich people. I secretly don't like the people that read this stuff, but it's given me a great career with awesome residual income. And the ads are so valuable I am able to trade small ads for services. The local home contractor put new hardwood flooring in my kitchen for 6 months of free ads.

So I love the perks of my job.

I never knew what career I wanted. All I knew was that I wanted to be able to support myself, have my own home (instead of house sharing, I still rent)
and be independent. I have these so I consider myself a success ☺

I'm assistant manager in an adult gaming centre. Like a small casino in the USA I guess. I love working with the public, but anyone who works in retail or hospitality can tell you how hard it is!

I work in business development for a major online travel company and am an author on the side.
