I'm a Health and Safety Manager and Trainer for a global mining equipment manufacturer. Pay's only ok at best, but I love the work, it can be as rewarding as it is frustrating.
Derek, thats not a bad idea.......
I'll do some investigation and get back to you and all IIS Members!

I'm a mechanical design engineer working for a government company who own and operate lots of dams and pumpstations in Queensland. Is it stressful??? Why do you think I am always checking out this site??

Very interesting all your occupations.... mostly technical types and teachers - a lot of medical as well though

Can you find me a dozen? I only want one or two with certain skills, but I'll give you the whole dime for them and you can find another buyer for the rest.

My boss will happily agree to my markup.

UNIX systems administrator for a federal government department.

I want out of IT and so started my own little photography business doing weddings and what not.

My dream job, and one which I'm prepared to vigorously work towards, is to become a landscape photographer. Maybe one day.

A far cry from what I wanted to do whilst doing a computing science degree. But, hey, you only live once; make the most of it and do what makes you happy.

I suppose my avatar gives it away too.
I'm one of the writers for an up and coming Underbelly episode - "Blood moon".
