Pal’s jobs and skateboarding

[El Nugjar]

What do you do for work? Any fellow employees skate? Full time, part time? More or less skating in your life?

Any fellow employees skate?

Hell no.... skating is an escape from my job

[Murge]

Been working in a machine shop for 4 years and October started learning to run CNC mills. It’s probably the best job I’ve had. I’m working now and loitering slap.

Before I started at the shop I’m at now I never had time to skate or was too tired so I’m trying to go more often now that I am able to and relearn stuff and learn some new stuff

Work in insurance, few people below 30 here. So I think not.

Analytical instrumentation and mass spectrometry for an oil company. No current employees skate, but one of my homies from high school got me my first job in the field. We have a few surfers though. Full time gig. I skate more than I have in years mostly just to keep from getting too fat from sitting on my ass watching chromatograms all day.

I'm a teacher.  I find time to skate when I'm not injured.  My school is experimenting with Project Based Learning right now, so grading comes sporadically in waves.

Just graduated college with a degree in business management. I've always worked as a bartender during the past few years. Applying for anything marketing/mgmt related. I always dreamed of working for crailtap or sole tech or vans.

If i got a dollar for every person who came on here just to talk shit about slap, I'd be a paid unprofessional skateboarder

[SirPizzaSlayer]

In and Out hopefully got an interview soon

Have you looked at Malakye? That's where all of the industry jobs get posted. They're always looking for freelancers and inhouse.

[curbslayer]

i am 29 and work in sales and sit at this stupid desk all day, not skating that's why i am here. the slap tab is always open

[tkp]

I used to manage a skate team, shoot photos, and make videos, but no longer work for that company.

Currently unemployed, but I have been studying cyber security for the last few years and have an interview coming up, so that's where I'm at.

[headtowall]

I'm a Director of Label Operations for a label under Sony. No one skates here, which is about as much as I do as well. Summer is about to hit and i actually plan on skating more even at 34 years old. They re did the death trap shit part at McCarren in Brooklyn so i'll cruise over.

I’m 28 and work in sales for a weekly newspaper. I’m on SLAP at work more than anywhere else

32 and own my own animal care business.
Used to have an office job and was on SLAP all fuckin day. Now I’m out in the woods with dogs most days and it’s sick.

I daydream of moving to Europe and becoming a TM though. I’ve got the experience and have dual citizenship so any company owners reading this, hit me up

[fs overkrook]

I don’t have a job

Wow that's awesome, what woods you in?

I work alone in an office all day, at a company that does financial consulting for nonprofits.
No one else here skates, I watched the Andrew Reynolds EL episode with a coworker one day though.

[Far from relevant]

I work a 9-5 office job for a major bank. Great work life balance for skating but at the same time sitting down all day takes its toll.

[GAY]

I split my time between cutting and styling hair, applying makeup, and arranging flowers.

[arrbee]

Facilities manager for a 1.2 million square foot distribution center. Manage a team of 12 people that hold this place together. Usually out in a decent time to roll around for a bit.

[johnes]

I’m trying to teach my donkey bff to skate down stairs like beagles doggo

Thanks! I live in the western part of Massachusetts in a very small town called Ashfield. It’s in the five college area (UMass, Hampshire, Amherst, Smith, Mount Holyoke). I love it here.

I just graduated in accounting/finance recently and I'm looking for something similar. What type of position are you in? the work-life balance is definitely a huge factor for me.

Power washing dumpters... the ultimate absurd and meaningless task. Some days I fell like sisyphus, pushing that boulder up the hill only to have it roll back down so I can start all over.

Provide captions on a special telephone for elderly, deaf, and hard of hearing people.

I work at a foreign car repair shop. Mostly German and Japanese. Started as a  detailer (glorified car washer) and now do basic repairs like headlights and oil changes. It’s located near that rail pat Duffy skated in the rain.

Skated to work my first week. boss and co workers all think skating is pretty rad, one of the mechanics  skates as well. Test driving fancy German automobiles is pretty fun too.  You hit the gas one time and realize “ohh this is why this car costs over 100k”

Video/event production, tech company. Travel 1-2 weeks internationally out of the month, trying to cut that down.

People skate in my company, just not in my office. Try to meet up with them when I'm in europe.

Edit - no one asked to see my shit pay
