What industry do you work in?
 

While having a browse through the Daily Annoyances thread I noticed that lots of the posts were IT related, and it got me wondering if there are lots of IT people on here or if just it's an industry with lots of frustrations ;). I considered adding a poll but my brain is AWOL today and all I could think of was IT, manufacturing, and government.

To start off, I'm IT related, currently studying Network Engineering as a 4-year bachelors degree. Recently I've been doing some Mobile (iOS and Windows Phone 8) dev work so I can eat and occasionally put gas in my car.

currently a grounds crew worker for a country club, but working towards getting my Bach in IT.
So i guess im in that IT group :D

Currently unemployed and getting a masters in accounting and business administration.

*Was, contracted (non deputized, unarmed) Security (pretty counter productive, right?!)

laid off last week.. ISO something new, hopefully not in the service industry... but no experience nor higher education :/ ...Dabbled in Home networks, and custom computer builds and Virus removal.. So i guess IT/A+ related hobby... but better working with meh hands

I *used* to work in military/aerospace, designing data acquisition/analyses systems...basically "applied" IT, using PC computers and custom developed software programs.

I'm now retired.

General Contracting (Flooring Specialist) 10 years
Commercial Fishing (North Pacific Alaska) 6 years
Aspiring Permaculturist and Mechanic

An education graduate with ISO certification training and an unfinished MBA. I work a desk job at a school completely unrelated to education. A long-time car enthusiast and modifier (read: I wreck cars), I've written for a number of automotive websites, both Asian and American. Currently a print and web contributor for Top Gear Philippines.

Millwright in a sawmill.

I was an Investigator, Compliance Officer, National Computer Expert, and mid-level manager for the Food & Drug Administration. So I was in government regulatory and law enforcement, and a bit of IT. I retired some years ago.

Currently unemployed, but lurking to resume working as a freelancer mechanic. I was lurking to study aircraft maintenance, but I'll only be able to do so in the next year.
