To keep this international, let’s have this thread in English.

I’ts always interesting to know what people are doing eight hours a day (ore more), so: what’s your profession / job / occupation? (Or what would it be if you had your way --?)

Well, I’m juggling with letters all day long, sometimes there are characters, sometimes there are small types.

@buchstäblich: You’re the female version of Letterman? ;-)

Oh, I’m rather female, sometimes a version, but Letterman’s job contains to wear fine clothes each day and being polite to people like Britney Spears - not my cup of tea!

@buchstäblich: The kind of ‘politeness’ Letterman extends towards characters like Spears can be sharper than outright hostility.

Mr. Letterman never clobbers his guests. So I could never do his job - I’m not able to assure this.

I am a freight forwarder specialising in heavy haulage and oversized cargo across Europe.

And my letterman is in my car, always.

Then, you would like to carry me?
