    I'm a training and development manager with real passion for what I do. I especially love attending courses myself where I get to see and try new methods. Typically such courses will have an opportunity to train the group on a subject matter of your own choice, using what ever new methods have been presented. The looks I get when I pull out a razor are always priceless, especially from the facilitators as they worriedly wonder if the venues insurance will cover whatever I'm about to do.

    The last 15 years working as an Operating Engineer for local 891 NYC. I am currently working in one of NYC's public schools. I have done almost everything. Paper route, supermarket, carpentry, auto mechanic and Quality Control manager for a military contractor. Hope this is my last job. Hope to retire in 4 years or so.

    That is very cool. A captive audience.

    Pastor for the first 20 years. Capital equipment finance agent and bank manager for the next 10 years. And now a long-haul hazmat tanker truck driver for the last 5 years, ergo the moniker.

    Until recently a graphic designer at a newspaper who recently downsized. I was able to leave with some incentive money. I'm retired but plan to continue working with my wife designing books for children.
    Arise, awake, and learn by approaching the exalted ones,
    for that path is sharp as a razor’s edge, impassable,
    and hard to go by, say the wise. Katha Upanishad – 1.3.14

    Pest control tech for 18 years this year. Done everything in that time but commercial only now. Have the smallest and densest area as have the cbd. Viewed on a map it is quite funny as everyone else has a decent area and I have a little circle. Everything commercial in there from cafes, fancy restaurants, high rise buildings and hotel's is mine to do. Been in there six and a half years now so gotten to know plenty of people and good places to go
    My wife calls me......... Can you just use Ed
