Work at Harrisburg International Airport in the maintenance department. Monitor the baggage handling system waiting for something to go wrong, which doesn't happen very often! Like someone else mentioned, staying awake is probably the hardest thing to do!

I am a Surveyor. I survey liquid drilling mud, and make sure it dosent get contaminated before it makes it to its destination on a drilling rig offshore in the Gulf of Mexico. I dont have a set schedule, and work on a 24/7 on call basis. However I dont get paid by the hour, I get paid by the job and most of the time a job will only last 2-6 hours and I make more than shift workers putting in an 8 hour shift, but than again, before that job came up I might not have slept for 2 days.

Well, I think I might have shot myself in the foot. I was on here talking about the railroad the other day and today my engineer ran us by a stop signal and through a switch. Because the railroad fires in pairs, I now find myself without employment for somewhere between 30-90 days. So if anyone in the south Alabama area needs any help just holler.

Currently working part-time as an assistant estimator for a Construction Management company until I graduate from Ohio State in June. From there I am traveling to Orlando, FL where I have a job lined up with a large general contracting/construction management company.

I work in the Coca-Cola Warehouse. I fill bulk drink orders form stores like Wal*Mart, Kroger, Food-Lion, ect... I get a sheet that tells me what kind of drink, what flavor, and how many, and I build a pallet from there.
