Originally wanted to do Electrical Engineering before I decided that I also like to have a social life as this would be very tough. Civil isn't bad and working with the government is pretty relaxing as well! haha

Bear in mind this a 'laptop dj' forum, and engineers are mostly techy nerds. You're bound to get more of us questioning 'the way djing is done' and finding novel toys like the VCI etc and ending up here ...

Firefighter. I get to drive an 800,000 dollar vehicle like I stole it, make a lot of noise, and nobody says shit. Best job in the world.

I bend over and take it Mon to Fri 9 -5 from a large insurance company you may have heard of, I sell insurance to brokers who inturn sell it to clients. Brokers aren't happy unless they can feel your nose touching their colon and clients aren't happy full stop. As you can tell I hate my job. Pays the bills just.....
I wait until my evenings/ weekends to get home, put on my tech/head helmet (see my Avatar) and become Fyoog. Then I DJ, listen to music, drink, go clubbing and generally cause havoc!!!

I paint all sorts of crap,

Houses, petrol pumps, industrial flooring - if its got paint stuck to it i have probably painted it. It pays the bills until my music stuff can pay them, but god knows when that will be - the music industry is a tough nut to crack.

I also work for DJTT where i get paid to answer all your general knowledge emails, product questions, answer youtube questions, do the occasional blog post and take care of the technical side of the forums - i putting far more hours into DJTT than i actually end up getting paid for and the hours i do get paid for are not really payed that well - that said i still love the job or i wouldn't be doing it

So in the end i wind up working a serious amount of hours in a week.

In my own time that i do get thats when develop stuff like the smartmixer, ms pinky plugin, other max patches, do a bit of djing and production work.

Needless to say i am a pretty damn busy guy, but don't really have a lot of $$$ to show for my work at the end of it all.

Yeah, breaking shit is fun. I work in the hood so there's never a dull moment, something is always either on fire or getting shot at.
