I work in intellectual property for the Canadian government. My past careers include IT consultant, computer technician and game designer. My current job may be a bit arcane (it's legal analysis) but the pay and benefits are good, the hours are reasonable and flexible and the job security is good. It's a living, and the legal skills are handy when I adjudicate 3.5e rules as DM in my campaign.

I went to school to be an aircraft mechanic. When I graduated 9/11 happened and the job market dropped out. Now I pump jet fuel on airliners.

Federal Consultant, currently working on transportation and port security. The TWIC, if you like acronyms. Google it and see what you find!
Working on an MA in International Affairs and Security Policy at the George Washington University in DC.
Trying to get a job with the US Defense Dept.
All that being said, I grew up on a farm in South Dakota, worked in a seed warehouse for a number of years, worked briefly as an IT manager, and briefer yet as a telemarketer. I had a short stint on capitol hill when I was in undergrad working for a congressman (now senator), which led me indirectly to my current profession. In between, I was a secretary/research assistant at the RAND corp. for a few months and a research assistant for ANSER for about 80 days.
But my true passion is basket weaving.
Not really.
My true true passion is split between defense policy analysis and intelligence, neither of which I am currently doing (although at least my work is related).
Most importantly, no matter what you have heard, I am not a ninja assassin.

I'm one of the reasons you pay taxes.
It's a combination of clinical depression and anxiety disorder. Really debilitating. Having been suicidal I can tell you that there is nothing romantic about it.
My avocation is recording my thoughts for posterity and passing on neat ideas. With the occasional bit of advice for those who ask for some.

Right now, nothing. I'm currently unemplyed, but hopefully soon to be. If all goes well I'll be working for the FLGS. I having been wishing to do that for a very long time. I hope I get my wish.

I'm a student at the American University in DC - studying history (with a particular interest in early American Freemasonry)...
I also work as a Legislative Researcher for Democracy, Data, and Communications - an internet based company that organizes grass-roots campaigns all of the US for all sorts of people/comanies/organizations... I don't really get to do any of the fun stuff... I just make sure that we have the contact information for most elected officials in the US (go from President all the way down to County Auditor).
I aspire to be a history teacher and write a book or two on the side.
Also, I happen to know for a fact that The_Universe is not a ninja assassin. So stop asking.
