To pay rent? I hand them a check in the amount of 550$, CDN.

Education? err. this is Canada, when not inside my igloo I'm out catching my family's dinner on my new 1967 snowmobile. I hear we're getting microwaves really soon. Good news huh? They might also bring in these really nifty 24-hour convenience stores, although I can't remember the name.. I just remember an "11" in it.

Nah, I was a chef for 11 years, now I took on web design and graphics design full time self taught. As far as cash? I'm sure not bringing in a lot as of lately..lol Maybe I suck? hehe

Landscape architect/park planner for the National Park Service, here in the USA. When I'm out in the boat, riding out to the island, and it's a beautiful day, I say to myself, "They actually pay me to do this." But then, I actually spend most of my time sitting at my computer, either writing or creating GIS (geographic information system) maps. I LOVE doing that, as well. It's the politics that I hate. I wanna retire soooooooo badly. But alas, I'm too far in debt to even contemplate the notion.

I'm a manager/IT tech support person...I've done web design/coding in the past, I've run IT breifing seminars (on buying and selling on the Internet in particular), I used to run lots of IT training courses (mostly on Office apps)....I've done a little bit of most things relating to IT really, but currently more a manager than anything.

Since I reside in Washington, DC, you could assume that I'm a federal employee. You'd be wrong, though. Wrong, wrong, WRONG!

I do it backwards. I do client skins for a living, and do other stuff in my spare time.

What do I do? I'm waiting for the job market to find its way up to the woods here lol...I keep busy around here spring thru fall taking care of the garden and the yard and house...staining, repairs, built a shed last year...not many jobs local in the boonies and don't pay enough for my limited experience to drive the 50+ miles in the winter to go that far...the price of gas and the poor road conditions in the winter ...*sigh. It sucks to not have any extra money! I want soooooo bad to be able to buy the full version of Object Desktop so I can play with the goodies and confuse myself more ...You folks are great and I sure do appreciate your work!
