What do you do for a living?
 
I have been a member of flyer talk for some time and am not a big poster but enjoy reading what you all have to say and the tips your provide. What I am really intereested in is what most of you frequent fliers do for a living to spend so much time on the road.

I look forward to reading some of your responses

Thanks for the tips!!!!

I'm the CEO of a company. I also sit on a Board of Directors, which is the main reason I fly around so much... Great thread!

Management in a government agency. Mostly in-state trips that support my personal travel addiction. ;)

Interesting post.

I would suspect a huge % of us is in the consulting line of biz, as moi.

Sommelier.

UA flights are always leisure travel, whenever I can squeeze in vacation time; hoping to schedule a trip to Burgundy for harvest this fall - it's time to burn some miles for int'l F!

Might actually start flying for business this year, possible consulting opportunities on the East Coast.

Great thread!

No, not an on-air personality :cool: I spend most of my time working on the next thing that will encourage you to wear an even bigger dent on the couch in your TV room....

1) College student (Aviation mgmt. major, French minor)
1a) Drinking beer
2) VP of my fraternity (not really a job, but the closest thing I get to one during the school year)
3) Doing completely worthless internships over the summer :td:

I'm likewise a college student, although in my downtime I do manage a very exclusive travel consultancy (as I'm sure we all do!)... to be a client, you must be my friend! ^

At 19, I wonder: am I one of the youngest here? :confused:

Product manager for a broadcast software vendor.

I spend lots of time shuttling between our DFW and SNA offices, and visiting clients and prospects.

College student. 4 months away from my Engineering degree. My next goal is to find a job that will require me to fly a lot. But seems like most job (on my field) will require me to sit in a cubicle a lot. :cool:

I think a lot of us must be traveling salespeople.
