Hey guys, I was just wondering what everyone's profession is on this forum. It's always interesting to see what fields car nuts work in.
My first job is school, I'm almost a Junior, so only 2 and a half more years of that ****...
When I'm not at school I work for Dana Corp. at the ATRG (Advanced Technical Resource Park) in the Mechanical Testing division. Basically we break axles and driveshafts for pretty much every car manufacturer.
The other cool thing about the ATRG is that we have a test track, a 1.75 mile oval, so sometimes we get to see some really cool prototype vehicles.
It's fun, most of the time.

My girlfriend is in the military, so I let the government pay my rent while i look for a job.
I'm looking for jobs teaching, but they're full through the end of summer. One day I'm going back to school for a masters in Econ. Then I can have a good ol' boring job that pays a lot - like a commercial loan officer or something.

In the fall I will be a freshman at Georgia Tech, but for now (and the past 4 years) I work in the postclosing department of a real estate law firm. I also do computer work for them when they don't want to pay someone $80/hr. I think that's because I get paid 10% of what they pay him, LOL.
I build/fix/network computers also.
Oh, and I install car stereos and build subwoofer enclosures.

RX7-Kid---You should come to main campus instead of a satellite campus! It's MUCH better here!
Staying on topic, I do nothing for a living. I go to school (senior at PSU) and nobody will give me a goddamn job! For fun, though, I build cars up for people (got project GSL-SE going right now), and I build other stuff like that (got a go-kart in progress also). Basically I am a slacker, though. On a normal day, I sit here at the computer from 8-11am then I go to the gym then I either work on cars/karts or come home and sit on the computer again...Hot ****...
