What does every one do for a living?

[OhhWatALoser]

I'm a hacker. Except professionally we refer to it as Computer Security Researcher. I do research on novel ways to break into computer systems (currently my main focus is in the area of smart phones). I speak at conferences around the world presenting this research (BlackHat, DefCon, etc to name a couple); new attack techniques, flaws in systems, etc. The other part of my job is developing analysis tools for making my job easier, as well as working on a scanning engine to detect software with malicious intents on Android/iPhone, etc.

where do you go to school to learn this? thats awesome

I'm going through an electrical apprenticeship. mostly do commercial/industrial. After i get my journeyman's card I plan on specializing in medium voltage terminations and alternative energy.

Very interesting to see all the diversity with the real life jobs/careers. I'm the Vice President of a tech company (ISP/ITSP) here in Cleveland. I'm also an aspiring author. For all the people in the military, I'm a former Navy CT (crypto tech)

i was just about to say the same thing. i usually get odd looks and strange comments when i talk about my snakes or my fascination with reptiles in general. thats why i like it here so much.

Graduated in Dec with a BFA in Studio Glass- meaning I learned Advanced Glassblowing and Kiln glass. Basically I got to play with molten glass and chemicals in 2300 degree flames to make killer art with it.
Naturally, that degree means nothing with this economy. However, working in universities for 4 years does

Currently Jobhunting and had a great interview yesterday praying I get the job I'll know in 2 weeks!

Also working on 2D Art right now and selling prints while I'm a live-in-maid for my semi-retired parents. My avatar pic is my most recent piece.
