What does everyone do for a living?

I work in manufacturing. Not allowed to say much more than that due to a confidentiality agreement.

Hmmmm sounds like Hagrid: "Shouldn't have said that. No more questions, don't ask anymore questions!"

LOL What I make is not a very big deal, it's not dangerous,it's actually quite common, but for some reason my company is very strict about employees discussing it online. There's not even much proprietary info involved. Some companies are just like that I guess.

Yes, I can understand that. One wouldn't want it getting about that there is a trade in Dolphin skin shoes made from the Dolphins caught in tuna nets.

I work for Texas HHSC doing Medicaid eligibility for the elderly and disabled.  However, I'm looking to get back into research where is where I'd much rather be.  The economic downturn slapped me hard in early 2010.  But it pays the bills for now.

I'm a teacher and it makes me profoundly happy and fulfilled. I don't make a lot of money, but I've always been happy with enough to get by.

And I, for one, am extremely happy that you are a teacher.

Seconded, with knobs on.

Master of my own destiny - I own a surveyors practice... and sometimes do some work when not playing in forums (fora??).

It'd be an easy life if I werent such a slave to a stuttering (UK) economy...

I am a group manager for a Window/Door manufacturing company. I started in the door division for four years, and have since transferred to a window plant in a different area of the state. My crew of 26 people produce between 400-700 vinyl windows per day. There's nothing special about the process... build the frame, build the vent, add the glass, put stickers on it as labeling.

I make a decent wage, and before the US recession (especially crushed the housing market) there was incredible opportunity for bonus and incentive, but that has since been yanked. I am bored out of my mind at work, usually, as the only issue that ever really comes up is absenteeism and machine breakdowns. Those are pretty easy to fix.

I have the largest department by floor space, number of employees and windows produced. I run all of the stock sizes and standard orders. Everything "special" goes down other production lines. I have started to realize that my job isn't so much to manage the department, but to keep the my 26 employees (about 25% of the total employees at the plant) out of the hair of upper management.

If my plant is still here next year, I'll probably be doing the same thing. There was recently a Canadian investment company looking to purchase a majority share of our company, there was bankruptcy talk, and most concerning was the old man that started the company in the 50s kicked the bucket earlier this year, and his son is running the company like he has no long term interest in it.
