Sometimes on Lemmy these seem like the only jobs that actually exist, but I'm sure there's a lot of people here with different and unusual lines of work.

Commercial Real Estate Lending - Portfolio Management. I monitor loans for losses and collect periodic financial statements. I hate it. I used to do business loan underwriting and trying to get back into that. Had a dream job lined up but ended up failing the background check because of a bankruptcy 6 years ago.

Plumber & Home improvement contractor

I recently started my own business and now I do variety of jobs related to home maintenance except electrical. If this'll pay enough to keep me and my SO fed then based on my experience so far it was the best decision of my life. It doesn't really even feel like work and 98% of customer encounters have been positive. I've gotten 5x more thank yous in 2 months than I got in 10 years at my previous job. We've all had bad experiences with shitty contractors. I truly try to not be one of them.

I work in electrical power delivery for municipal transportation, supervision-level. Before that, I was a shoreside engineer (basically a mechanic, not an engineering degree) in marine services. My work has always come very organically, often starting in floor-sweeping assistant positions.

Machine operator. I run some CNC machines that are paired up with robots to handle the loading and unloading of the CNC's.

If and when industrial robots are hooked up to cameras and computers that can problem solve, my current job will be gone or very boring.

Just by the numbers I would assume quite a few Lemmings work in utilities companies and healthcare.

For me it's healthcare. I am an EEG tech and sleep tech.

Product Design, I work on the visual and user experience over the lifecycle of (currently) medical software.
