Default What do you do?

I am curious as to what the members do? I always wonder about who collects cards. I know what a couple of others do for a living, specifically dentistry. I am not sure about the rest.
I assume some people may be retired and some in college. Some I assume would like to keep it private.

Anyone?

Like the young lady in the picture says, "what do you do?".

I'm one of the 3 resident dentites (at least I think there are three of us?).

In reality, I just became a dentist for the jokes!

Patent, trademark, and copyright lawyer.

I still can't believe Upper Deck caved in to major league baseball and agreed to make no cards showing the players in their uniforms.
