Just sitting here idly whiling the time away until 5PM comes, so I thunked I'd make a thread to find out what jobs the rest of you have, who you work for, and how much you get paid.
I'm currently on a years industry placement from Uni, working for CMP Information (a Business Media company) doing support, network admin and suchlike stuff. For the year, they pay me £13K.
Web and Desktop Applications Developer working for Teksouth, contracted by the United States Air Force to write order and money tracking applications.
Automated Financial Systems. We make ****** banking software. But they pay me about $43k to do it, so I don't complain too much.
Unemployed... 18K a year salary (if I was able to stay on for a whole year).
Gona be a junior in high school. Right now I have an internship working at my high school. :(
Prime Minister - £150,000 a year
scraping by (about to be downsized from my current company) I do web based application development...make about $23K/year...but I have 3 possible job offers pending which start about $40k-$70K...so that would be a nice turn around if I could get one of them. If not, I guess I should start looking for a bridge to move under.
I write engineering / sales desktop and website software.
Is fun. I am unable to divulge my exact wages due to extreme jealousy, but
The range memnoch mentioned is about avg for the industry.
Programmer for a small company called Fargo Assembly Co. i make $8.50 Per/hour :( . and im a student goin to college earning my bachalors in computer science and i already have an Associate Degree in computer programming.
I retired a couple of months ago, but when I did I made 6 figures. I worked for Siemens in Silicon Valley and I wrote programs that supported the sales force.
Fish biologist, about 33k per annum.
"Management Technician" at Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency. I currently work with Microsoft Access, SAS, mainframe SQL and VBScripting through WRQ Reflection's IBM Terminal emulator software. Oh, and $29k
Work for Pitney Bowes as a Mail Clerk. Pay $9.75 an hour. :( Attend community college. Have little over a year left to obtain my AS degree in Mathematics. After im done i might go back for a BS in computer science. They pay full tuition so i might find the most expensive school i can find and make em pay. :D Muhahahahahah
Programming department = me. Large electric company based in St. Louis. I was unhappy with my pay till I read this thread. Currently at 52k - had to moan and groan until I got that last month. Webmaster, DB analyst, and a LOT of business to businesss applications.
Yes, but after reading another recent thread, the average age of people on this board is about 20 - 21, so that might by why wages are lower thatn you would expect.Quote:

True. I just assumed that a lot of people here made more as many are pretty knowledgeable. Maybe it's true that it's not what you know, it's who you know! :D
When I was 23 I was on £21K and (I may sound like I'm being up my own arse when I say this but) I think I was a better coder at 23 than many older collegues around who had years of experience, and some of those earnt £80k/year (contrators). Now at 27 on £32k/year as a senior developer/software architect, the market is very different, and I'm currently job-hunting as we're being closed down. :mad:
Large (US) government defense contractor - in support of very non-PC (politically correct) programs. Ad hoc application and web development plus the same for the division I work in. 61k but looking to move.
I'm going to be a seinor in high school. I currently work as an Intern at one of the local Intel campuses. I do database design, make vb .net applications for internal use that do different things like check the intergrity of a database, and do lots of intranet web application programming in ASP/ASP .net, and general xhtml stuff too.
I make a measily 7.50/hour but I get a pay raise to 8 in October.
Unemployed. My last job was doing C++ for £10k/yr.
This contradicts your signiture does't it? :DQuote:
