Try to be a good husband and father, lose my monthly beer allowance just about every month as the IT Manager for a St. Louis based brewery (not that one), own and run a small business consulting firm (software/web development, accounting (wife’s a CPA)), go to school full time (double major computer science/web development), play music, attempt to sleep for 3 seconds a week. ---

I’m allowed to make up my own title, but it’s just “the programmer”. I maintain the printing at my university, which just means building and setting up servers and maintaining our printing software (C# and PHP). Easiest job ever. 😛 ---

> [@Cello](#): > > And am I happy? You betcha I am Oh I could bet the world on that. Ya pimp! No seriously, good for ya and all the best! 😃 Currently working as a broadcast motion graphics designer and a freelance web/graphics designer. The freelancing has gone down a lot though. I also produce electronica as a hobby which is slowly and steadily phasing into a more serious plan. 🙂 [Previous page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/what-do-you-do-for-a-living/264069.md?page=1) [Next page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/what-do-you-do-for-a-living/264069.md?page=3)
