more interesting question - what you gonna do AFTER adult?

**$5 submissions** · 06-13-2009, 06:52 PM

I worked for a judge plowing through tons of bullshit motions padded by defense attorneys to justify ridiculous fees to their oblivious corporate clients. I quit after a few months.

I worked for a venture capital firm in charge of studying and handling incubated companies. Plowing millions into vapor companies based on a vague idea. That gig imploded with the Dot Com bust (the first one, not the one currently happening).

After that gig I became a webmaster and never looked back.

I've only ever had two jobs before this industry.. I spent 2 years as a Nurse's Aide in a Nursing Home, thought I was going to become a nurse and got that going, but then people started dying, obviously, they were old... and I couldn't take it.

So I went into working in a Factory, Briggs and Stratton, for almost 9 years and had to leave there due to a serious back injury in 93 and was a housewife until 99 when I started in the Adult Industry.

While I was doing those two things, I managed my husband's band for 15 years. lol
