I use to be a forklift driver at a lumberyard but quit so I could move back to the States and get a college education (something I could not have done while working a full time job and supporting myself). However since moving back to the States I have had trouble finding work as the economy is crap and nobody wants to hire anyone. To help get by I have been selling DVD's on half.com and ebay to get by which has been going alright. However I received an e-mail inviting me to do some data entry and shipping work for a tax company, so things are starting to look up for me that way.

I intern as a civil engineer and surveyor. I enjoy the engineering work and despise the surveying work.

I work as a waiter at a senior citizen center "for the arts". So basically I get to be yelled at the cooks and my friends crazy step mom who calls me a "*** catholic athiest" and be nagged on by the *sshole theater actors.
I mean, the theater department in my school isn't filled with the nicest people, but atleast they don't try to fire the waiters because they laughed during a funny bit of a play.

I don't get paid and all the tips we get are divided amoungst the other waiters. So while I make around 50$-60$ a night in tips, the amount I recieve dwindles down to around 20$ because all of the other waiters are terrible.

I work at a photography studio in LA, mostly assisting. I do photo editing for Suicide Girls, Papercuts, and Met-art. And lastly, I teach dance.
