That will get you a cheese burger in San Diego.

QA Tester in the movie industry, previously videogames. Make about 35k in LA

I know it isn't much, but I work my ass off and like what I do.

Sometimes I wish I did manual labor though.

Combat vet, senior philosophy major on my way to law school

logistics. all i do all day is drinking tea, browsing fit and his, and occasionally printing some invoices or bills of lading. actually other people print these docs, i am usually the one who revises their poorly done work.
the pros? i start working at 10:00, so in the morning i can hit the gym.
cons? if somebody fucks something up, i have to clean up the mess, so nobody gets fined or fired.
pay? as much as your customer is ready to pay you.

Linux system administrator. I make about 30% more than the windows admins at my company. Usually average 60 hours a week. I kind of want to go to a trade school and learn how to be a lineman though.

Studying computer and electric engineering. I like it, it's very hands on, even though sometimes it takes away time from lifting.

I'm looking for a part time gig as a junior developer, though most places where I am only hire full-time. I might get a full-time job at the end of the year so I get some good spending cash, even if wages in my area are kind of shit.

that's a stupid risk to take seeing as how you're in medschool and on the cusp of financially making it, only a little bit 'till residency then you're set. Good luck op, don't get pinched.

I used to work in lands management, I was in an office about half the time and in the field the other half. My office work was examining maps, surveys (written and drawn) and aerial photos, as well as plans for land-use, etc. My field work was checking out the lands in my files, taking photos, doing enforcement on policy decisions, that sort of thing. Money was good, around $52000/yr in a rural area.
Now I work as a mid-level bureaucrat in my region's capital. The job sucks but it pays about $12000/yr more. I kind of regret changing jobs though.

There needs to be jobs available mostly. They will hire anyone off the street when things are busy, and in a few years you can work your way from assistant to surveyor if you put effort into learning, but at least 60% of the surveyors out there are out of work. Times are tough. If there is no construction, no one needs surveyors.

You also need to pass a piss test and be able to walk all day. Not being a fucking retard who can't be trusted to hammer a stick in the ground helps too, but isn't necessarily a requirement...

>>42108507

Civil is a lot better than geomatics. Any geomatics company will hire you with a civil degree, but a geomatics degree is only good for geomatics.

I work for a small architecture firm with 55k salary I average about 25-30hrs a week and do freelance on the side. Will make 75-80k this year. Live in LA so it doesn't go super far but it's easy, I get to sleep in and make my own hours and I like what I do.

I'd love to get that 1%er money soon though.

It's really nice for the gym, I can go any time I want pretty much. I just really feel like my money doesn't go far at all, mostly cause the housing market is absolute shit in LA.

I'm trying to save for a big downpayment and wait for the market to go down otherwise I'll just pay cash for a house elsewhere if I really want a house. I've been in a pretty shitty apartment for 8 years and I could 'afford' to move but it's really not worth the money, so I'm essentially stuck here.

No idea how I'd go about starting a family ATM & I'm 32, my GF is 27. Life tends to figure itself out though. Until then I'm enjoying life, especially the summer. Each summer seems to get better and better.

I'm a traveling department manager for a grocery chain. I never have to drive more than an hour and with the mileage pay i pull in around 52k a year. I'm comfortable but I'm considering getting a trade or going back to school for engineering since my geology degree has lead me nowhere.

Industrial engineer, I work for the us government(sort of). 65k, a year out of school so slightly lower than private industry standard but I get good benefits and I work whatever hours I want as long as I get in 40/week so it's not bad

I hear from pretty much any professional not to go into their career. Seems like any highly educated job never meets people's expectations. If I could go to school all over again I'd have no idea what I'd do (architect). It seems like the programmer train is slowing down, but I'm old enough if I got my shit together years ago I probably coulda been making a lot by now. No idea if I'd be any good at it or if I'd hate it, though.

Parking lot attendant over the summer at the beach. 90% of the time I am sitting on my ass in a comfy office chair and taking money and handing out tickets getting paid decently for it. Worst part of the job is cleaning up the lot after so theres no glass etc. Plenty of qts that I can't talk to because
>tfw when the only people you talk to are on 4chan or discord

They are, but the cost of that is ridiculously high.

Currently interning as an environmental technician/consultant. If I were to work there right after graduating they'd probably pay me like 30k or something. I'm hoping to go to dental school though. Going to have to take an extra year to do it, though. The way I see it is I'd rather live poor as fuck for the next few years than live poor for the rest of my life.

>>42111230

>>42111338
*Landlord doesn't pay bills

Sorry, thinking about my phone bill. My landlord keeps blowing my rent on pills and not fucking paying the electric. I have a well, so that also means no water.

>>42111314
Depends. We also do fire marshal duties so fire experience is a plus. I was an animal control officer before I did this. Most the people I worked with did some kind of security before.

My situation is rare though, most hospitals hire retard contract security who get paid fuckall and aren't allowed to do anything.

Would recomend the job though

I am a dentist. I basically take a dimond covered drill and spin it at 200k rpm to cut through the hardest substance in your body.

I am making about $140k a year.

Get into dental hygiene, you can make $85k a year and only need to go to two years of college. I will hire a male hygenist in a second because everyone else is in the office is also a female and the female hygenist are just bitches to the female staff.

Prawn fisherman. make 60-70k a year, work 20 weeks. Manual labor as fuck, juicy forearms.

I'm a profession tutor. I teach standardized exams to really rich kids. I charge $100+/hour and last year just broke $100k. Have a JD/MBA and am gearing up for the bar. Want to do something else.

IT/Programming, mostly IT shit though.

Basically I do nothing all day and get paid ~60K/$30/hour to do so. Lots of AD and SCCM stuff. I cover six different sites and am responsible for the well being of a couple thousand computers/laptops but I got that shit on lock. Occasional hardware/script/software fixes, mostly hardware though(people love dropping laptops and spilling shit).

I wish i was doing something more fulfilling but it's such a comfy job that I don't wanna leave. Promotion or new internal position soon hopefully...

22. Stack shelves at a supermarket.
Just got a promotion offer, not sure if I'll take it. 50k/year to do what I already do, but for 60 hours a week.
If I tough that out I can get promoted again and do exactly the same job for 70 hours a week and 70-90k a year. If I do that job for 4 years I can do a far easier job for 95k a year. Then if I have aspirations I can do a much harder job for 135k+ a year.

As good of a carpenter I've been told I am its weird being so young with all adults on the job. I'd prefer something with people my age but most people I tend to hang out with fell for the college meme. Oh well shit pays nice and I just want to move out with my friends and eventually start a business when my friend in the army gets out in a few years.

Paramedic in Atlanta, GA.

Make 42,000 base at one job, but that usually gets up to about $60k with overtime and holiday pay, and like most other EMS workers I work a second job, make $28,000 there, and I instruct CPR and help instruct EMT classes, which gets me an extra ~10k/year.

Pros:
>I have a front row seat to the best show in the world.
>The uniform.
>I have an endless stream of stories
>I never have felt unfulfilled or like I'm useless

Cons
>Hard to get time for gainz
>Hard to eat healthy
>I've seen some horrors you can't imagine
>Sleep is difficult now
>It's hard to talk about anything but EMS work
>Hours are long out of necessity
>Pay is not great for what you do

Unsuccessful people say this about many high-paying career fields. It makes them feel good about their meagre positions.

Welder/pipefitter

I earn from around £26k to over £34k depending on what jobs I put down for with hours from 35 hours a week to 50+. Mostly do HVAC or structural welding on site hate being in the warehouse fabricating, plus when you work out of town the hotel and all food is paid for so not only longer hours but you pay out less.
