I'm a baker, and a fitness model for National Fitness Gyms in Canada. That's right, I get paid to take my clothes off. I'm on the site from time to time, but usually I do the mailer ads they send out or posters inside the gyms. I love the attention I get, not gonna lie. Especially from the chicas . . .

My next move is to become an exotic male dancer, I think. They make a ton of cash and it beats my brutal 5 am shifts baking bread, cookies, pies, and sweets for people to grow VERY fat off of. It's ironic that I enable the obesity issues people come in to the gym for in the first place after seeing my ads telling them to get thin, eh?

Work for the workforce management department of my country's second largest telco. I control the lives of hundreds of people across 4 different time zones! Mwahahah. It's not as impressive as it sounds.

I prefer my other gig, writing fluff and rules for FFG's various 40K RPG lines. That's way cooler.

I'm an RJE Operator for a large farming equipment company. In practice I monitor servers that are older than I am, and when they gak the bed, I either fix it by applying my knowledge of an archaic scripting language, summon someone else to do some database work and then fix it, or ignore it, depending. Half of my week is night shift, so I can sometimes get some painting in when it's quiet.

Ironic AND a gravy train
As long as people keep baking, people will get fat
As long as people keep getting fat, there will be advertisements for gyms

Basically a win-win for you matey

Sitting waiting for the fog to roll in, or sun to move round to thaw out the cables.
I'm network support for the local council.
So, every power-cut or downpour, we see it on the screens, and sit bickering about whether we need to go out and sort it out.

After I retired out of the porn industry (they were sucking the life out of me) I decided to go into the work that the vast majority of my family does. Union Ironworker. I actually love it. I get to make fun of people all day long and tell my boss what an idiot he is, and this is totally acceptable.

Now, we like big books. (And we cannot lie. You other readers can’t deny, a book flops open with an itty-bitty font, and a map that’s in your face, you get—sorry! Sorry!)
