Congratulations Steve. That's pretty cool!

This often brings up interesting stuff: what other jobs do board members have?

I'm currently living at a boarding house for a boys' school (fees >$10k p.a., Australian). I'm essentially there as a guy who's done a whole lot of maths and physics who can answer any questions the kids have for their homework. I also tutor chemistry.

On top of the tutoring, my job is to run the boarding house on certain days. I wake the kids up in the morning, supervise breakfast, make sure they head to school looking presentable, then do the reverse in the afternoon. I also have to deal with any issues that crop up during the day (or, sometimes, in the middle of the night when I'd rather be asleep).

Yay Steve. Hopefully they'll ease up on you after a while so you can come here and slack off like the rest of us. :)

As for Simon's query, I'm afraid I don't do anything very interesting. I work at a motorcycle and ATV shop doing miscellaneous tasks. The hilight of my day is driving vehicles around from the warehouse to the front of the showroom.

I sort of have a web design job, but not much is happening with that. I just need to get off my ass and get stuff done, really.

Congrats Steve. Hopefully you won't be so tired of it by the end of the day that you can't enjoy working on it in your off time.
