Well.. I am still trying to figure out all the possibilies with LIVE. It's harder making music than designing stuff for airplanes... I am LIVE-stupid.

I went from being a sausage salesman (for reals), knife salesman, painter, professional sign holder (dodging dangerous items thrown at me from cars), projectionist at movie theater, and other MANGLING jobs, to a software tester for Telecom companies. I don't get free sausages or movies anymore, but I can finally pay off my gear debt...

there are some better ones, but I can't find them on the web..

I'm a system administrator for a healthcare outsourcing company in Michigan.

Anyone work in IT in Michigan? Hiring? I want a new job.

Most of the time I do this;








But...




...starting in July I'll be doing this:


I'll post my own pics when I get there.

programmer / web developer for a very small design agency (5 people).

I like the people I work with, the work is sometimes interesting sometimes tedious, but the main prob is staring at a screen for 8 hours and then coming home... and staring at a screen for another 6 or so hours making music.

starting to make little bits here and there from gigs and royalties, but just pocket money atm. waiting for the day I'm getting enough from music to go part time...

oh and to all the unemployed people leeching money off the government (ie: actual working people's tax money): GET OFF YOUR ASS AND GET A JOB!!!

Um, let me make something clear, some of us are considered "disabled" and cannot work full time...........and some of us actually have good reasons for being labled "disabled".......

It isn't leeching

Well I'm speaking in general (and casually referring to a post on page 3). Obviously I wasn't trying to imply that everyone who is unemployed is a leech, sorry if that was not 100% crystal clear. Just seeing too many people around me who are very able to work but seem to find more fulfillment into tricking the government into giving them money for sitting on their ass all day.

I've worked doing things such as:

Messenger/courier (first job ever, I used to spend all the money on records)
Pizzaiolo (the guy who makes pizzas, kind of hard, little money)
Bank clerk (boring as hell, shit pay)
Graphic illustrator (it was cool but got fat really quick sitting all day, the money was ok)
Waiter (job kinda sucks but tips can be good, specially in British pounds)
Dummer for cover bands (money was really crap but had lots of fun + pulled chicks)
Web designer (money was good but company went bust then even chimps learned HTML and web design softwares)
Translator English/Portuguese/Spanish for technicians (really cool job, get to travel with famous bands, all expenses paid, good money, get to watch for free all the concerts but when no foreign bands, no cash)
Follow spot operator for CIrque du Soleil (coolest job so far, good money, met nice people, all expenses paid).
Pan and dishwasher in a posh restaurant (I guess the lamest job of all, cleaning other people's shit is no fun and the money was peanuts).
