What did you do for a living before this?
 

Assuming that you did have a job before working in adult as I know more are coming into this more or less straight from school.

I was a travel agent whilst I was studying for my degree.

I built and sold custom drum sets, worked in music and film marketing, built custom competition cars and sound systems, and worked as a longshoreman for a short stint.

I was been too young :winkwink:

fisherman

i really can't remember what i was doing before, maybe sleeping

I shudder to try and recollect.

Something to do with an office, a bunch of assholes, programming shit, and having to wear clothes while sitting at a desk. It was horrible.

Worked in Asda (Wal-mart) on the Pizza counter. Was part time since I was at College studying Sports Coaching and Development.

Commercial law, investitions in IT for a well known government organisation, if I don't count all the part time jobs in my teen years.

Was also studying cybernetics and later on international trade.

derivatives accountant for a merchant bank, took my first years big bonus and fucked off aged 23 to live in Amsterdam.

I was a Casino manager for many years and then went to online Casinos as customer relations manager which was a good stepping stone into adult :winkwink:

hahahahaha genius.

I was an Aff/Channel manager at software /telecoms cos + a few other related bits. Always had sometihng to do with online.

I went to college for autobody, then some cisco certs. Right before starting in adult I worked as an on-site computer technician for a company called 604-GET-HELP.

I was a computer scientist, bank manager, FBI agent, then a level 60 Adon.........gosh I loved those role playing games.......lol:upsidedow

Accounting.. last job before starting PK was General Accounting manager for a non-profit company.

Funniest thing, last week in more than one conversation with the local office of a Top 10 International accounting firm, I was offered a "professional staff" position with starting pay about 5 times a year what I made back in 1994. All I could think of is that I used to eat auditors alive and didn't want to become one. Second thought was to break the salary down by hour compared to what I net now. I just can't see giving up my 20 foot commute to go to work 8 hours a day for someone else and have to buy a professional wardrobe again... it sounds too much like... ummm... normal.
