I draw stuff. Then I talk to people, and throw most of the drawings away.

I´m a Lumberjack and im ok.
-> Unemployed, looking for a job in the Games Industry once again, as a Coder in C++ or C#, while sitting in school for another 16 months to get a qualified IT specialist...getting a job would take me out of this boring hell where i learn what i learned at age of 5-10 already! ;) Have mercy anyone?!
I design and implement electronics, firmware, and software for liquid chromatography instruments, mainly.
i think a more interesting topic would be:

what was the weirdest / most embarrassing / most unbelievable job you took on as a teenager/young adult back then?

@nagz: Working on a construction site, being asked in the morning whether I want bread rolls (Semmeln) as well, telling the guy I want two please, he comes back with beer, didn't know it's their "code word" for that, standing there with two beers still hungry at 7am. FML :P

I work in labour and municipal, and not the IT-industry. Programming and computer stuff I do in my spare time when Im not at work. I have a feeling I would either hate work, or have no interest in programming and the demoscene if I worked in that industry. But, to the contrary people here shows that its possible doing both.

I'm an embedded systems software developer (been working on a GLSL shader compiler and a GLES3 driver for some years now) (thank god (iq) for ShaderToy, so many free test cases!).
In my sparetime, I write music software (a tracker-like MIDI sequencer, a DAW, and various smaller tools), and even make some music with them every now and then.
Still on my todo-list: a demo tool (and some demos!).
