I'm curious what everyone does on a day-to-day basis. Students? Cops? Office staff? Writers? Artists? When we're not obsessing about set lists, tours, vinyl, bootlegs, posters or everything-PJ, what does everyone do for a living? :D

I work as a criminal prosecutor in Minneapolis-St. Paul, so checking out PJ.com on my lunch breaks is definitely a must to unwind.

    I'm an attorney as well, but just general practice / trying to find my groove / a little lost. Prosecutor is a tough demanding job, wish you well.

    This has been done before. It got to be a pretty long topic and it was interesting to see what everyone does. Seems like there's plenty in health care and general business.

    As for me I fly a charter jet.

    Hope things go well for you too my friend. Don't know that I'll always be a prosecutor, but for now, I'm very happy to be working anywhere. :) Where you you work/practice?

    They draw up the plans and I made sure all the contractors are building them that way - large commercial sites - everything from the dirt on day one to the concrete, steel and whatever at the end
