When my back gets back to the point where I can get off pain medications, I'll return to my job as a stockbroker, though I'll have to take all my darned FINRA exams all over again.

Graduated almost two years ago now (man, time flies) and I am currently a derivatives analyst at a financial institution!

Wall Street Equity Analyst - 19 years in and they are still paying me! :)

Dentist for 15 years. Love my patients and my staff. Wouldn’t want to do anything else. Really enjoy getting to know and share life with those I am blessed to work with and treat.

I do that at work and get paid for it. Nice gig if you can find one. :)

I'm an Advertising Illustrator.

I am a sales director for a big CPG company and run the eastern half of the country. I spend most days chasing down trucks and getting yelled at for late deliveries and trying to negotiate with ever increasing in power retailers.

But we are an official sponsor of MLB and I got to go to opening day, the all-star game, the ALCS, and if the Yankees would have won, the World Series. I play a lot of golf in the summer time and travel about 45 weeks out of the year so it could be worse.

I own a company that owns and operates manufactured housing communities (mobile home parks); I am a "recovering attorney" -- have my JD and LLM in tax law and practiced for 7 years but gave that racket up a long time ago!

Thanks Todd :). No more explanations, although I'm not sure I ever billed more than 20 hours in a day :)

Damn- nobody here that's a A/C technician. I need help!
I can build or do just about anything with my hands, but its the legs that get me there, and sometimes they don't want to move.

I'm the CEO of a statewide trade association and lobbyist

Job Activities
 

Retired mathematical statistician (as opposed to pie graphs) from a National Laboratory. An example of a relation to baseball was a letter to the editor of Sports Collectors Digest from a reader who had noted (somewhat surprisingly) that in the set of over 800 Topps and over 800 Donruss for a year (I believe in the eighties) there were exactly two matches. One was Tom Tresh and I forget the other. That is, Tom Tresh had the same number in both sets. He expressed his surprise and astonishment and wrote that this must be a very unusual event. It is actually not unusual but an example of a famous 18th century French gambling game where the house lays out a deck of 52 cards, and the player lays out his randomly shuffled deck of 52 cards and wins if he scores at least one match. The readers observation is complicated because the Topps and Donruss sets are of different sizes, but there is a large overlap of players and managers. I solved the problem for the unequal sizes and for three sets of cards. It is not obvious, but the exact solution is the sum of an alternating finite series depending upon the number of cards. It is surprisingly interesting (at least to me) that this sum converges rapidly so that after eight terms the answer doesn't change to the fifth decimal place whether you have a deck of eight cards or eight million cards.

I'm an attorney but I haven't practiced in a few years. I work in house for a large insurance company doing high-end claims analysis. Pays less but I'll live longer.

And in a previous life, I was an editor at a literary agency for about 10 years.

Author (six books, seventh on the way) and sportswriter at China Daily in Beijing.

My hero
 

I work in TV / Internet engineering for a big company. I travel a lot since I somehow got promoted a few times over the years.

But, I want to be hired full-time by a company as interesting as the one Kevin shows above. I do some of those activities on Saturday or Sunday , but how cool would it be to do it Monday through Friday!

Actuary, and SVP at a Fortune 100 company.

My daughter is applying this January for an internship at a local actuarial company (or a company who employs them). We are hopeful she likes it and think she will. She likes to be secluded and she likes working on numbers :).

My ex-employer actually got me my current position. :mad:

It's a tough, seven-day-per-week job, but my new boss doesn't mind all that much when I tell her I need time off to play golf!

Typically Actuaries work at Insurance companies, or consulting firms that specialize in Actuarial work (pension, healthcare, property/casualty).

I'd encourage her to work on the interpersonal, group work, and social skill sets. She may not need the "practice" and just prefers to work solo......however, the computational element of what actuaries do is less and less material to the role. Machines compute the answer (used to need actuaries for that), so the differentiator is, for example, articulating a complex calculation simply to a layperson.

Just my $0.02 - no change required!

Bankruptcy manager for large US bank my team protects the interests of the bank in Ch11, 12, 13 cases. Board or directors - treasurer for National Derby Rallies, Soap Box Derby. Volunteer position but do it for the kids across the country. I am also a musician and record and play shows in the mid west.

I’m an architect.
Worked on a couple of minor league baseball stadium renovations in the past. The one i worked on in Savannah once saw Ruth, Gehrig, and Mantle on the field :)

I'm a Union electrician,(IBEW Local 275) working for a large contractor in Michigan where I have worked jobs from the Atlantic to the Pacific and a lot in between.

Pretty cool seeing the different paths each of us are on. I currently work for a large fleet management company. Locate, negotiate and ensure service providers meet legal requirements nationally, and internationally, that can primarily perform onsite preventive maintenance and emergency repairs for diesel/gas vehicles, forklifts, cranes, trailers and associated. Locate in shop providers as well. Been in the sourcing field since I left the Navy in '95.

I believe the thing that we all have in common is that we were all kids once. We loved baseball and we loved collecting baseball cards.
Even though I don't watch baseball now I still love baseball cards.

I'm a corporate bankruptcy/restructuring attorney (chlankf, if you ever need new counsel, or counsel in NY/NJ, shoot me a message!). I'm not surprised to see several other attorneys among the board's members, but the range of careers and backgrounds represented here is really amazing.

I found this board after many years away from the hobby as I was hatching a plan to put together a set of playing career-era cards of each of the first five HOFers, something I could only have dreamed of doing as a kid. I don't know how often I'll post, but I love reading the discussions here and learning about the old sets and everyone else's collections.

Retired Fed

Man that's an interesting job... I dabble in distressed investing and spend a lot of time researching bank debt, even though someone like me could never get my hands on it lol. Fascinating stuff though.

Another awesome job. Thought about going for the CTP designation but don't know if I'd ever be in a position to use it and questioned if it even really matters. You definitely wound up in an interesting law career though!
