Though I am still new here, I have been swimming along this vast cosmos of information and am very curious to know what type of careers the people who post here have. I am just amazed by the diversity of open people and I find this forum very healing itself.

It was only recently I realised how speaking to someone you trust can really heal you alot, I see so much honesty here and it is beautiful.

This thought kind of led on to me wondering who I am speaking to? I find the intellect here is amazing, the teks, ideas, beliefs systems, this cant be a crack house type bunch for sure!

So what kind of work do you do or are involved in?

I am still figuring it out, I work 2 days a week in a warehouse, some days I am an iPhone technician, sometimes a witch doctor, a creative actually the creative side of me is something quite new.

I have alot of hobbies and get the odd job here and there but in all honesty, I have no idea what to do with my life and I dont really care, I am on a journey of inner freedom and this is my lifes plan.

Obviously I dont expect you to be 100% specific but even the industry maybe if thats not too personal.

Thanks

I'm studying fixing computers but I wan't to get into remote viewing as a career for the stock market and sports betting.

Paint cars as of right now. Pays the bills. Did some college back in the day. Might go back later on down the line. Who knows what'll happen.

Working on getting my degree in a few months..not sure what i'll be doing after that but i might be able to get this computer tech job, although i dont plan on making a career out of that. Right now i just get payed to play videogames with kids a few hours a week...lol

I teach foreign children English and its the most amazing job ever, sometimes I catch myself thinking Im getting paid for being an idiot with these glorious children its the best job ive ever had. Before I worked with people with mental health issues so kinda similar but this is so much better. I teach adults too but they're nervous and reserved unlike the kids and I can get away with being a complete idiot and im getting paid to have fun its unbeleivable so hilarious just laughing most of the time.

Im sure the novelty will wear off but as it stands I work 20-25 hours a week and the rest of the time I can make music, my real work in life

I've done tattoos for 25 years. There are a fair number of psychedelic people in this industry and I am able to be quite open about where I get my visions.

I also publish and distribute educational material for tattooists. A natural outgrowth of being immersed in this industry for so long.

Once in a while I'll sell a painting. You can see them in the Guyomech gallery at www.dmt-nexus.me/art

Thanks everyone for sharing what you all do, it is amazing to see the diversity of people here and aspirations as well as talent, it truly is beautiful.

Guyomech, your art is appreciated, I wish I had more material needs in order to purchase one.

I do sense a somewhat laid back attitude generally, at 27 years old and 13 jobs later, the best plan is not to have one, nothing ever goes to plan. I wish all well in their dreams, focus, focus focus.

Hhahaha, this made me laugh, surely spying on hot girls in the shower is more sinister and fun

As the saying goes those who love to do what they do, never do a days work. Sounds like you are providing a much needed service, kudos to you and wish you well.

Wow! Not bad job, pretty much every child or manchilds dream!



P.S Sorry for keep posting, I just wanted to personally reply to everyone will do it in one reply next time.

P.S.S God, I have started to become really rhetorical in my old days, I dont mean to sound like a know it all it's just hard when you know everything!

I'm a set painter in hollywood. We do anything that needs to be painted. It's a pretty good job for making fast cash, no questions asked. You can come and go as you please as it's project driven, no steady work. Also it keeps your chops up as an artists since we have to copy everything under the sun and make perfect replicas of rusted steel, marble, all kinds of woods, linoleum etc... and then the rare but more fun murals or oil painting copies. the only down side is usually temporary and just thrown in the trash right after it's done. the amount of waste in hollywood is very depressing and also it's only for usually dumb movies/tv shows. every once and while we work on something inspiring but those are the exceptions as i'm sure you know by what you see

I'm going to ecuador and really excited to meet people that are not driven by ego and flash like they are here in hollywood. I'm hoping to make a transition to a more meaningful kind of work. Not sure what. I"m trained in construction, gardening, and many arts including being a professional musician for some years... so anything is possible!

great topic!

Sounds really interesting, just follow the shamanic heart beat within. I find that now, I dont worry at all, the things I wish for usually somehow as if by magic find me. With friends and work colleagues as you describe, your heart must be in the right place.

thanks woven, i'm finally following my heart as i've been the last of the gang to leave my home for a place that might be better suited to my heart's calling. los angeles is so amazing at having all you need here it's hard to leave. i can surf, bike, snowboard, go to the desert, see amazing sights that only appear in this mega-opolis. but i feel drawn to a slower/more real life like i witnessed in the heart of the jungle with the shamen of ecuador

local kitchen business owner, catering and deliveries of fresh (mostly) vegetarian prepackaged foods that stores markup the price and sell on their shelves. fun owning your own place but the hours are intense (15+ everyday)

interesting to see what all these psychonauts do out there in the real world!

Los Angeles sounds and looks stunning, better than the concrete jungle they call the city of London. I have a freedom and travelling destiny that needs to be quenched, I have only ever been 1 other country in my entire life

It can feel lonely, robotic and quite a cold place at times, people are very stiff here. I find peace in hiking and walks with a good friend of mine, we both have our survival bags and sometimes hike for up to 12 hours, learning about foliage, nature and down to earth stuff. It helps me stay centred and is an escape from the norm. Keep seeking peace within, as the saying goes, anything but Love is just an illusion.

I understand, I too was working 2 jobs at one point, never again unless it is for something of my own. A good friend of mine is a personal...I mean spiritual trainer, he is on a raw vegan diet, I tried some of the foods he eats raw and could not handle it. Mushrooms, cauliflower, spinach and the usual was all I could eat, my friend is like a slug but he glows truly and is the only person I know who picks up rubbish wherever he is, he is my brother from another mother.

I agree also it is interesting

I love your alchemy art on your profile, I have seen it before, the man just peering into the vast sea of the cosmos.

One love

Computer graphics artist in the video game industry... specifically environment artist. Been at it for over 16 years now lots of fun!

No career.

I am human.

I live on earth.

I have some post seconday education being trained in anthropology and philosophy. Not that I have a degree or anything I can use towards a career.

Id rather be skimboarding.

29 years on this planet so far and I like art.

spare some change?

I grow plants.

I like to stufy entheogenic plants and hope that I can at least contribute something to this world by contributing to psychedelic research in w/e small way I can. I think it is important.

..far more important than the plethora of crappy jobs I have worked and will likely continue to work for some time.

Yeah..art, skimboarding, psychedelics, plants. Now, how to make money doing only that?

start making and selling skimboards with psychedelic art on them? :]

It fascinates me so much how a team of programmers build these games, I dont play games much but 1 game I love is Skyrim, how they produce these games with what seems such a small group of people and they release alot of games.

Amazing stuff, so glad I started this post.
