I teach computer networking, server stuff, and end users.

Network Engineer for a big ISP. Fun stuff, if you're into that sort of thing.

I work in Information Security. I think my official title says Security Engineer, but basically I do penetration tests (hehe), which is where I get paid to break into a company's network, and I write training classes on how to not let it happen again. It's good, fun stuff.

Oh dude. That's freaking awesome. I did some time as a customizing mechanic for a while (lifts, drops, spoilers, etc) and loved the work.

I'm a process operator on a crude distillation unit in a big refinery.

Um...imagine Homer Simpson, but Texan.
Maybe partying will help.

University library senior attendant. A steady job I don't hate for most of the time. Don't have to sell useless shit. Don't have to wear a tie either.

Used to be all sorts of music related odd jobs: stage hand/ mixer/... And of course playing and writing for others. Though it's meager I still get bi-annual pay for the back catalog, written lyrics, and stuff.

Yeah, my main goal is generally to work somewhere that has a neutral(at least) to positive impact on the world while not having to compromise myself. Working at a university or college fits in nicely with that plan.
