ummm, I have a job, they pay me. What, me quibble over why they pay me? Not me sir. I'm not going to rock the boat just to see if they notice what I do for 8 hours a weekday. I'm going to be mouse quiet in a cats cage and pretend I'm not here while i get a paycheck on the 5th and 20th of each month!
it's pretty good! I'm a Dodge/Jeep dealership photographer, taking about 30-40 photos of each new and used car, posting them to the dealership website along with a generic description of the make and model. That takes about 2-4 hours a day. The rest of the day, I have been online blogging. If you look over at the stats on how many posts per year I've done, you'll see that it went from around 2 thou a year before this job, to around 5 thou a year with this job
You are welcome! It's a pleasure, most of the time, to share the stuff that I post. It's been motivating me for about 41,000 posts, 13 years, and a hell of a lot of missed sleep. Maybe it's a wiring short in my brain, or some OCD, but I get a kick out of learning something fantastic and sharing it... and that is somehow tied into my obsession with mechanical stuff like cars, bikes, planes, trains... Now, some people are this focused on making the stock market work for them, or gambling, or whatever their job is. I didn't get that money maker angle to it. If I had, I'd be traveling the globe, posting about cars and stories about cars and car people from all over the world. Oh well. Better to understand yourself than to be striving to be something you're not I suppose.
What. You work? 😉

DeleteWell Jesse, I'd say you got the best of both worlds. Oh, and I love the pics you do. Th SEMA show is great. Thanks.

DeleteI totally concur Jesse. Would that I was a millionaire, because I'd send a check.
