I often wonder about the cross-section of careers and employment of the posters here.

SS is not a typical selection of Aus humans; almost no-one I actually have met or know has been on this site, or even heard of it - and I know a lot of people (because I'm and old b@stard who's lived in a lot of places).

So, without giving many details (or a lot of you feel like it), would you care to tell us what you do for a crust?

Professional what?

I'm a professional too; professional idiot.

He's not in the CIA and can't divulge, is he?

We're not asking for underwear size or Bank details - just a title, for god's sake.

Graphic Designer – predominantly logos/brands (and rolling them out across print and online). I've done a lot of packaging design for both boutique and supermarket products too, and also do some motion design/video editing.

I've worked on a number of property developments (e.g. name, logo, website design, brochure, flyers, press ads, online ads, sales books, display suites, copywriting, videos, investor reports, email newsletters and marketing etc) which is a nice overlap of my profession and my property passion.

And outside of that some photography and journalism.

*obligatory plug* I'm always on the hunt for new opportunities with the right clients.
