So, what does everyone do for a living?

[Shadetreesurgeon]

Whenever I watch motovlogs it's sometimes easy to fool myself into thinking that this is just whatever person I'm watching does ALL the time. Back in the real world this is just everyone's hobby lol. So, all you motovloggers out there... How do you pay for your bikes and fancy camera equipment?

I'll start off. I run a little biker bar and make most of my money from bartending. I honestly love my job, I get to hang out with all my friends and am completely immersed in my areas moto scene. With the added bonus of essentially being my own boss. I used to be a mechanic at a local car dealer and before that I worked for the city in the parks department. Where I'm at now is really the happiest I've ever been. I'm really lucky in that regard. So what does everyone else do when they're not talking to themselves on their bikes?

Was a welder until late last year, gave it up for a while to chase a lifelong passion and am on the verge of releasing my second novel. Will more than likely go back to welding soon in order to pay the bills though!

I'm a Locomotive Engineer for a major Railroad. It's a great job as far as salary and benefits but I am on call 24/7/365.. it doesn't leave a lot of time for riding and vlogging and editing but I still manage.

 

[IREV808]

Web Developer here... I make a decent amount of money to pay for toys but most if it goes to my mortgage.

While I sit on my ass all day, what is cool though is my monitor setup for my work station. I can be coding in one screen and watch motovloggers in another. Helps me keep up to date with other motovloggers if I don't have a heavy work load.

Service Delivery for our Major Electricity Generator.

Pays the bills for the toys!

It's awesome seeing everyone diverse answers. I can't wait to watch motovlogs of the people on here knowing what they do for a living.
