    Computer geek by education. In reality I'm an autograph hound for payroll (SOX Auditor). Thank you Enron, WorldCom and Sarbane-Oxley.

    I'm an Actuary... graduating in May with my B.S. in Actuarial Science (a math degree, with more statistical modeling and financial economics) and staying in the actuarial field...

    To make a very long, complicated job description short - I put a price tag on future unknown and contingent events...
    spent a year interning as a pension actuary, but now work for Highmark - so I do the pricing and all the complicated statistical calculations that determine how much you pay for health insurance... :) if you pay alot, sorry bout ur luck

    I work in a lab at UPMC, was in the Med Tech program, but decided I don't want to pursue it. The lab isn't really about science anymore...it is just putting a little tube of blood on the right machine...boring! I actually have been looking into schools/classes to do work on cars. Even looked into some racing schools. Really I have no idea what I want to do.

    I'm a medical sales representative. I sell everything and anything related to health care from band-aids to EKG machines, vaccines, and even lab instruments that Dana might have used (hematology, chemistry, immuno assay, etc).

    I also sell electronic health/medical record software, laboratory information systems, and cosmetic lasers. If its in a doctor's office, I sell it. I've been doing this since graduating with a BS in Biology over 6 years ago and I LOVE it.

    I have two jobs:

    Bonfire Builder
    What they do: Gather discarded wood from trash bins, beaches, construction scrap heaps and similar areas to expertly build bonfires.


    And I also do this in the spring through fall.

    Golf Ball Diver
    What they do: Search the depths of golf course bodies of water to find lost golf balls to refinish and resell.

    I used to be on the books when I worked for Lays.

    It was a very difficult job that required an immense amount of concentration.
    I had to give it up though.

    My title was Potato Chip Inspector

    And I was to oversee potato chips on an assembly line and check for overcooked or clumped chips to discard.

    I did receive a promotion and was head potato chip inspector on line #3. ;)
