HI to everyone here in the Mid-west. I've been on this site for about a year now and I've gotten to know a couple of the regulars in here.
But aside from our love for our cars I was wondering what some of you do for a living, so you can afford to spend money on your contours. I know Doug(XKontour98) recently graduated from college and I will be in May, and its not about what you know, rather who you know.
I guess I wanted to see what some of the other CEG'ers do to get by.

I am currently unemployed. I had spent the previous year in healthcare market research, but my job was moved to Canada. At the moment, I am enjoying a break and living off of severance. I am looking for a job but am content with being without one for a little bit; the last year had been pretty rough.
I do not spend any money on my car, aside from the loan, which will be paid off in April, and routine maintenance. I had the mod bug for about a year, but it is gone. My car will remain in its current state until I'm done with it.

Yeah it would be nice to know what everyone else does and possibly find some networks. I am actually graduating in December, still close enough! But I have landed a job as a store manager for Target Corp. which is pretty nice to have waiting for me in Jan! According to my roomates "I must sell drugs or something to afford my cars/parts"...actually not true but eventually Mr.Visa will be topping out! J/k I work too many hours when im not at school and spend it on one of two things women/cars so theres not much left after they get their share  What about the rest of you???

I'm a project manager for a millwork company. Basically I sit at a desk most of the day and order materials and send out orders to our shop to make things like reception desks, cabinets, counters, etc. I do get to travel to my jobsites once in a while which is nice, plus I get to play online more than I should  Beyond that, I like travel, photography, long walks on the beach, snuggling, and candle lit baths, ooohh wait, I think I'm on the wrong website!

I know I have heard of T100, which location is that? I interned at T068 and currently work at T1096. Im not sure what location I will be starting at officially. I have heard rumors of either the lower suburbs like Distric 102 or Minneapolis....There is also talk about trying to bribe me to open a store in Chicago but I dont think I will bite. My Gf just got a job in Rochester at Mayo Clinic so I dont really want to be tha far away.

I test software for 401(k)retirement plan recordkeeping, for a division of Wachovia Bank.
Basically, I make sure the software will work in the real world before it touches real money.
I like it, and it pays the bills...
However, when one owns a house... the money can make giant sucking sounds out of your wallet...

I'll de-lurk here for a minute... I'm the information security manager for a major window manufacturer. The job sometimes feels like Sisyphus's eternal torment, but most days I enjoy it. Since the wife commutes in the SVT, not much has been changed on it lately. Being DINKs is kinda nice... Leaves plenty for my toys!
