If it is filmmaking... congrats! (@directorik 😁)

If it is something that pays the bills for filmmaking, also congrats, but what do you do?
 
Full time film tech dev, making films is part of the job but less than half the work. Sometimes I do merc jobs to feed money into the effort. The ShowReel.video website is designed to create a secondary income stream.
 
Definitely CIA. Don't tell me your secrets. I know them, anyway, or, can access them at my leisure. But, your dirty little secrets are so boring, boring, boring, anyway. You're thinking Pegasus, but, huny, you don't know the half of it, which means one sixteenth of it, at most. I want to be a filmmaker, to tell my story, but the Company has so many boring rules, restrictions. It's so tedious.
 
The great Irish song-writer, Percy French, was a civil engineer by trade ; he referred to himself as "inspector of drains"

In that same tradition, I'm a filler of holes and cleaner of other people's mess. 'Tis a bitter-sweet situation that my professional colleagues are getting better at being worse at their jobs and less reliable as employees, meaning more holes for me to fill and bigger messes to clear up.
