What does everyone do for a living

What does everyone do for a living? Just curious. Want to see if I can relate to anyone and how GTD plays out in their work.

I am a manager for a restaurant.

My day job is as...

My day job is as a program officer for a private family foundation. (Basically this means that I read grant proposals and make recommendations to the trustees about what to fund and what not to fund. I also get to work with different school districts and non-profit agencies to help them get their projects running, then monitor their progress.)

When I'm not doing that, I'm an adjunct instructor at the local mega-university. I teach mainly statistics and research methods, but when the need arises, I also teach demography and social psychology.

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
