I’m a baker in a library cafe. As you can tell I’m not especially imaginative with names. But I like my job. I realized in my senior year in college I didn’t have the temperament to be a CPA, even if I knew how to do it.
Fraud Analyst at a Visa/Mastercard issuer.
I take calls to verify account activity is valid. It’s my job to prevent fraud losses by any means necessary. 
I also cover the supervisor line and the training classes in times of need. I also do projects on high fraud loss accounts. I analyze the account and come up with suggestions to prevent future cases. So far, three of my suggestions have been implemented and a fourth is going through the Suit Channel.
I’m a former baker (hi Baker!) turned cake stylist (frou-frou for cake decorator) for a small independent supermarket chain.
I love my work, but retail is HELL!
Haven’t seen you in quite awhile cuz.
Oh, I’m retired. 
I teach 5th grade in a California Title I (low income) public school.
Whee!
Right now I am unemployed, before that I was a high speed rotary offset printing press operator for over 22 years.
Peace

Mechanical Engineer. I do design with 3D CAD software, manufacturing, transfer of prototype builds in the U.S. to high volume production in Asia and am the primary techincal interface with vendors and customers. I am another one who loves my job.

Secondary School Fine Arts Teacher. Notice the capitalization-- so I don’t feel like I went to college and all I got was this lousy credential. Frivolous, expendable lil’ me, grumble, grumble…
Psychologist. Mostly teaching at the moment, with a small practice, and I moonlight occasionally as a counselor on a psychiatric unit to keep up with inpatient milieu work. Elsewhere in my life, I publish the occasional haiku or sonnet.
I work at an animal hospital. As a veternary assistant, training to be a tech. I also work as receptionist/surgical secretary. Someone in the office found out that I know the secrets to making the computers work and that I’m nice to people on the phone.
I have a BA in English, though. I would love to become a writer/editor someday, but until then…I’ll just keep playing at the animal hospital. (And I did find out that the owners are instituting a tuition reimbursement program this coming fiscal year. Woohoo! I can start on my MFA soon.)
Going to school to be a high school English teacher, then on to law school or me.
I also am the Music, Movies and Books Specialist at my local Target store.
Plus, I’m a midfielder for the Western Michigan Men’s Club Lacrosse team.
Woohoo.
Well, I was brief before, but I’ll take a cue from others.
While it certainly has it’s trying moments, actually being the one out front in exploration geophysics is about as rockin’ a job as I could imagine. I see, through remote imaging, stuff about the world that nobody before me has ever seen.
And, I solve puzzles all day. The hard part is that there’s often a land man with a fuse in his pocket waiting for my interpretation.
I’m an internist (Internal Medicine specialist) at a large university teaching center. Somehow, I made my way up the hospital/university food chain so that now I have very few predators (in other words, I head up a Division). My job is eclectic if nothing else. I see lots of patients, do lots of teaching, lots and lots of administration, and a bit of highly unfocused research.
Ahhh-niii-maaa-torrr!
(once 2D, now 3D)
Monday-Friday: Copywriter for a small advertising company. Mostly I write the overseas versions of catalogues, flyers, annual reports for different companies, but occasionally I do bigger ad campaigns as well. I guess that means the goal of my work is to eliminate ‘Engrish’. Not bloody likely, by the looks of things.
Saturday-Sunday: Wedding minister. In the past 2-odd years I’ve been doing this, I think I’ve married close to 300 couples. I’m not actually Christian, but that’s ok, neither are they. Usually. The travel often sucks but I’ve found being on stage is extremely addictive. Plus the pay’s great.
Astronomer. Well, an astronomer in training really, seeing as I’m still doing my PhD. But I also do some teaching at the university.
Sales of two-way radios and cell phones.
And cadolphin is NOT a lump on the couch - she’s my wife and I love her 
Violist.
I, like Angua, am an Astrophysics graduate student. At the 82nd largest university in the country, no less!
Lawyer. More specifically, Law Clerk to a U.S. District Court judge. Law student dopers, this is a fantastic way to spend your first 1-2 years out of law school.
Prior to this I’ve been a musician, body piercer, bar back, pizza delivery guy, and telephone opinion survey person. I leave those off of my resume nowadays.
