Thread: What you do for a living?

My job/career is just that, but my favorite job is being a dad 24 hours a day...even when it's bad and he is being a pain in the arse, I wouldn't trade it for anything else!

I've been a Professional Hairdresser for the last twelve years. Had enough, so I'm back in school majoring in Biology. I also wait tables.

I've been a fitter/welder in the oil field, power plants, and in small shops, but my toughest and most rewarding job is being a father of five. Now I earn money as a machinist.

I am a Pastor. Been in ministry for 30 years. Also do business consulting around the topic of developing people. Tune a few pianos here and there, and used to be a meat cutter before the aha moment with God.

25 years senior management in big Telco specializing in near and future technology...do primarily consultant work now in the same area, just finished up a few months ago big project in near field communications. I work now when I want and where I want if it grabs my interest....

I served in the US Army 7 years, was a mechanic in a mill for 7 years, the last 16 I have been a locomotive engineer for one of Americas largest railroads.

I'm 34 years old and have been a barber for 15+ years, all I know really lol

I'll sort of go in order from summers in High School to the present: construction laborer, bored student, degenerate drug fiend, father of 2, serious student of Anthropology, laborer again, Union cement finisher heavy construction, gardening and landscaping, stone sculpture, grounds keeper at Tibetan Buddhist Monastery, cook for monks, massive heart attack, first office job the equivalent of being a laborer again, and finally now I am a leaf cutter ant, all subways and escalators and a lot of sitting. I found a circuitous route to the bottom but I still manage to have some fun.

In chronological order: Logging company gopher boy, fish processer on a boat up near Alaska, drove forklift in a warehouse, 8 years bubblehead in the Navy, finished college and get Engineering Tech degree (somewhere between the smart hands on guy and the clueless engineer), now work for the Feds and help maintain and repair US Navy subs and carriers.
