wow, that's some career you've had. i personally know a few people who are/trying to be engineers. and one of my best friends is planning on becoming a math teacher right now. as of now, you're the only comic book artist that i know. at least you like your job. oh yea, i like helping people, so being a nurse shouldn't be that bad to me. i like cars a lot, so once i save enough money, i might open my own garage as a side job.
