Alright, what do all of us girls do? Why do you have that job/education/training? Is it always what you wanted to do?
I'll go first. I'm working as a waitress at a restaurant and I have an interview for a second job tomorrow. Hopefully it'll bring in some extra cash so I can indulge my vidya game addiction. Real life's graphics just suck too much for me to care about it.

I'm curious to see what everyone else does for work/school. The only one I've heard anything from is Remi being a tutor.
+props for being on Fakku while tutoring, by the way. <3
Happy birthday~. *birthday glompage*
Education: B.A. Psychology with a concentration in neural/perceptual studies, and Russian Language and Literature minor.
Job: online and IRL Math/English/Science tutor (and other subjects but only verrrrry rarely once in a blue moon, only when the stars align and angels sing, Psychology)
Herp derp, such a useless degree I have. At least it looks pretty, and I can cry over it, lol.
Tutoring isn't something I wanted to do, per se (I was into research and music), but I enjoy it well enough when the online students aren't being brats. There are a lot of frustrating moments when the students just. won't. get it. (I call these students the STUDENT OF DOOM because I want to believe it's just one student and not a lot.) On the flip side, when the students do get it because of my help, it feels soooo good, man. I sometimes want to scream "I did that! I lit the light bulb in your head!!!!"
I have a couple of unpaid jobs (or very low paid) as a voice actress and another as a VN composer. This is just foot-in-the-door stuff for me; hopefully they lead to paying gigs, but if not, well...at least there's still tutoring. Composing, and music in general, is something that I've always wanted to do, ever since I picked up my violin and made up songs as a child. Voice acting is something I got into accidentally that I never really considered as a career, but I'm trying to make at least a bit of money off it.
I lol'ed at your "real life's graphics just suck too much for me to care about it..." Sometimes I feel the same. XD
