What Do You Do for a Living?

Recommended Posts

I am a 26 year old full-time student at Concordia University in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I am currently in my last semester of a BA majoring in Economics. I am also employed part time in sales (Future Shop) as well as a promotional marketing firm. Just this evening I wrote (and nailed) an exam to become ceritfied to sell investment funds in Canada, I commence work with Investors Group May 21st. I am itching to start this job because it gives me regular hours, weekends off (i.e. golfing on) and even the freedom and need to entertain clients (i.e. golf) to instill confidence and ease. I have been out to an indoor range once a week since Jan. 3, tired of astroturf. Anyways, this is my 3rd post, now I have to wait more to be a full member..... snow....forums.....school, always with the waiting....

wow.....nice list of jobs

I am 25, design/draw house plans for a local tract builder, freelance custom homes on the side, as well as being a licensed contractor and owning my own business doing remodeling and design/build custom homes.

And I find time to play golf, although not as well as in the past, but I still play.

I'm an electronics consultant, self employed. I design electronic products for medical, industrial and consumer markets.

I've been playing business golf for the past several years but I decided to get serious again this year about playing more for fun -- I really want to get my handicap back to single digits!

Glad I found this site, it looks like a lot of fun and really interesting.

Took early retirement a few years ago after 35 years with McDonald's Corporation. Just relaxed and vegged out for a while, and now I work part time at a local Starbucks. Just a few days a week, and usually off by 11 am. Then it's off to the course!

    • Very cool to see how they work at that level. Do they get more, different or better data from their own equipment with all the cables than you do with GEARS? Both systems must be very useful in instruction, getting numbers on what is going on and not having to rely on slow-motion video footage from various angles. I saw it mentioned in another forum that some PGA pro was struggling with the swing, so they recorded new data, compared it to data from when he was hitting it better and quickly found the solution, like they did with Jamie here. I like how he used basic athletic motion to improve Jamie’s speed by jumping around and throwing stuff. I can see some pros getting lost in numbers and details, but if they got a good coach that deals with all that stuff and just tell the player what they need to so different, the technology has incredible potential. I also love how all the technology helps dispel myths and ideas people got from Hogan and Nicklaus decades ago. You can’t argue with data (as long as it’s accurate enough).
    • Day 160 - Did some pitching work to give my hip/elbow a break.

    • They can’t pick players to highlight based on who’s a fan in here. I didn’t see that part, but it can’t have been that long? Bryson is fine, except for the LIV part. He’s more entertaining than many others and having some LIV representatives up there stirs the pot a little.
    • Day 63: Priority piece work with 6-iron, half-ish swings (9-3), Mevo+ to check ball flight. Average path is a bit left (1.2 deg) and average face is open (2.9 deg), so mostly fades. Will need to work on face, but overall happy with how this is going. Also hit 20 balls for short game practice - 10 each pitching and chipping
