Preschool, Infant baby gear, games, radio control, dolls - kids toys, like the one found at ToyR Us.

I apologize, that wasn't supposed to be dirty

That market seems like one that would hold up pretty well in most any economy (the infant and baby stuff). Hope everything stays together for ya.

I sell MASSIVE TVs. Sometimes smaller ones too. I also get to play with really, really nice stereo gear. I'd sell that too but it seems nobody wants to buy it right now.

I work making electrodes for laserlamps, currently very demotivated and sorrounded by mediocrity with no will for change, lowest common denominator criteria all over, managed by a fairly good group of people but buffered by two classic cases of "raise up to the incompetency level" ready to kill to protect the nice income they get for doing nothing useful but adding cost to the product......ah I love my job

 

[MadMan118]

I'm a logistics "engineer" for a Maersk Line child company. Basically I'm responsible for where the shipping containers go and when.

 

[Disraeli Gears]

I'm in school right now, and currently unemployed. I used to push carts at a grocery store- which was actually an amazingly easy and moderately amusing job. The managers usually left us alone, so we came up with all sorts of games and such to keep us amused. And, being still in high school, pretty much all of the money went towards GAS and movies/concerts/tater tots. Kinda wish I still had that job

 

[KPAX]

Electronic design engineer. Industrial sensors and controls. Fun stuff like designing analog and digital circuits and embedded software and more mundane stuff to go with it like packaging and users manuals. Small company.

 

[winston]

I work in the Operations dept. of a large wholesale dessert company, doing QA, processing orders & maintaining our product database. I used to work in the test kitchen, baking & eating all sorts of brownies, cakes, and cookies.

I'm seriously considering going back to school for a Masters in music composition.

 

[tplyons]

I work for a very large, well known confectioner in logistics.

[jumbo_steelie]

I operate a drinking water treatment plant. It's the modern day equivalent of a lighthouse watchman. Talkbass is gonna see a lot of me....

 

[popinfresh]

Whenever I'm back in Aus though this is where i'll be going for 'school'.

As little as possible. I was in business/accounting software and real estate when the going was good.

The economy may put me back to work.

[bassteban]

Stay-at-home dad. No, it's not a *real* job; where most jobs have a 'quitting time', mine goes on for 18-30 years.
I get room & board & the occassional nice bonus.
