So what do you guys actually do for a living? If you're a student, what's your field of study / what do you want to be doing?

I myself am a court reporter / stenographer.

Wow, this thread will really be interesting! I'm a student, said it the other day, got my Bachelors in Business Administration and am working on a Master right now :) Focusing on Marketing & Consumption. The electives I had picked out for me in my bachelor focused on languages, specifically on Japanese. Wonder why ;)

Student wanting to be Aerospace Engineer. But from the looks of how far the nearest Uni that has that field is, I'll have to take on Mechanical Engineering. Which I like as well.

One more semester and then I transfer.

At the moment I am in highschool, but I plan to enter marketing, specifically, video game marketing(I am not really sure if that's correct term). Hoping to work at Atlus and help spread their awesome SMT games~

I indoctrinate youth through a largely outdated and systematized method of didactic lectures and indirect instruction. I'm a teacher candidate; will have my teaching license early next year But I'm hoping to be somewhat more progressive about it than many of my soon-to-be colleagues :p

I work for a construction company. I get jobs for the construction company by talking to many people I affiliate with and through banners throughout the city with my name and number on it.

My last Job was Quality Control, it was underpaying, and I was underperforming, so I left. I am now studying to get my CDL. It will be an instant doubling of my pay from my previous job. I also run a PC repair business on the side.

Pretty much. That and I paid for a metal sign in 3 of the high schools around us to be put up for sponsorship of the Football Team.

My father is a court officer, and he suggested I try it out since I had just gotten an associates in liberal arts / had no idea what I wanted to do next, plus it's pays pretty well and has flexible hours. I didn't want to do it to be honest, but I tried it out and ended up being good at it, so here I am :p.

Also, the ET project looks awesome.
