I appraise real estate. Fortunately, presently there is as much work as I want. I've been working 60 hours a week to make extra $$, which I really need right now.

Also as an independent contractor, I can take a day or a week off whenever I want, and work at my own pace.

I also like that as I drive to each home, I can listen to whatever I want: NPR, ESPN Radio, iPod, General Conference, etc., and not some cussing, crude co-workers. Take lunch whenever and for as long as I want, etc.

I and every other poster on this board save the previous four are lawyers.

Marketing and risk strategies for the credit card division of a major bank.

A couple of years ago, my group's main job was determining strategies for mailing out over 50 million pre-approved credit card offers every month (that's over half a billion a year for you English majors), as well as about 20 million telemarketing calls. I liked to describe myself as the most hated man in America. Odds are, most of you received an offer or phone call that I had a hand in. Sorry about that.

I'm out of the DM side now.

Ha ha, stupid English majors that don't know their numbers.

To add to the topic, I'm another one of the attorneys. Patent attorney specifically.

I am in the waste management business and if you know what's best for you, you'll leave it at that.

You're not referring to your prior employment as a mortician, right?
