I'm a long time lurker that just decided to come out of my shell.  So, my question to you all is what is your career?

You're not insinuating that lurking is a career, are you?

Luko

Oh, and I can answer for everybody. Everybody on the board is in IT, except for me...I'm a former journalist and now in public relations.

I feel obligated to point out this was a joke so the three other non-IT guys here don't get upset.

Now I feel like Jon Favreau in Swingers when he leaves like 17 voicemail messages for the girl he just met that night in the bar. I'm pathetic. I'm going to bed.

I think I have a fairly unique job that wins me a lot of guessing games.  I'm an exploration geologist aka, prospector.  I hike through the forset looking for metal deposits, mostly Ni Cu Pt but sometimes iron and diamonds. 

urbino

Well that qualifies as the most interesting job on the board. Where do you do this prospecting? In the States? All over the world? Deadwood?
