Radicons: What do you do for a living ???

I've always wondered what my fellow Radicons do for a living.
I get confused for working in some kind of Graphical job because of my Photoshop work.
When really I'm a Landscaper/Snowplow Driver & I also do all the autobody & painting of the trucks for my work.

So what do everybody do ???


And for the record, NO I did not put the tractor in the pond.
That was some genius on my crew that did it.

Well, as of July I became self employed! My girlfriend and I create art made from slate and stone. We work on pieces during the week and set up at art shows on the weekends. Although we have had to streamline our finances a bit, for the most part our income is as good as when we had "normal" jobs! Add in the luxury of working at home most of the time, and ya can't beat it! We are also getting over that "starting up" point, so I should have more time to devote to kitbashing, which will also hopefully be another source of income for us. I still mainly want to 'bash for myself, but a commission here or there is a nice little bonus! Here are a couple examples of what we make:






So it just goes to show you guys, follow your heart and take the leap of faith! We all have talents, and to love what you do for work makes it seem like no work at all!

Well I use to work a a fast food join, but I quit...long story. So I cut grass during the spring and summertime for my Gram-Gram and this is weird I do back rubs for my mother and I get paid for it...I know its crazy, but I do need to get my butt in gear and get a job, but its hard.

Umm I suppose I am a student first and foremost. Working on my BA in Graphic Design full time and project after projects keep me busy plenty. Customs is how the monies made as well as some off and on work for smaller toy companies which when I can snag them is awesome cash. Everything is going pretty good at the moment though with the economy issues I am seeing tighter pockets and less commissions recently.

I'm formerly a full time Graphic Artist, but now I'm a full time Radicon. I also pick up freelance work whenever I can.



One of mine.

My family and I currently live in the Kanagawa prefecture of Japan, as I work on the US naval base in Yokosuka for Submarine Group 7 as a member of the operations department.

I have been in the U. S. Navy for 7 years now (with three left on my current hitch!); I am a 2nd class Electronics Technician (with a specialty in navigation - it's a weird submarine thing). I am currently on my first shore tour, following my previous tour onboard the fast attack submarine USS Hyman G. Rickover (SSN 709), for about 4 and a half years.

I also love to draw, as some of you may know, and plan to have a degree in graphic design prior to my separation from the military. I'm also slowing expanding those talents into the world of customizing Transformers.



That's a picture of my boat pulling into Norfolk, VA, having completed her final deployment. If I squint long enough, I could identify everyone in uniform. She would later travel to the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, ME, for decommissioning.

God has really blessed me with my dream job over the last year. I am now an evening producer for ProNews 7,kvii in Amarillo Texas. I love working in news. It sorta runs through my viens you know. I feel very blessed and Honored that the Lord lets me have such a wonderful and fulfilling career.

I work as a Certified Maintenance Technologist (fancy wording for licensed mechanic) at a Waste Water Treatment Facility. We have a capacity of 250 million gallons a day, on average we handle around 100 mil. If it goes down the drain....residential, street, business....whatever, it comes thru my plant.

I fix and maintain all kinds of equipment....mainly pumps and presses. I've been sprayed/covered in "IT" head to toe, I've stood in "IT" knee deep before to do an emergency repair....whatever the job takes.

I work for an environmental firm. I handle clerical stuff like helping put together/publish reports, take phone calls, etc.

i am a full time DJ/Music Producer which is pretty much what ive always wanted to be. its great tho as i get to spend my spare time collecting and bashing transformers!
