    Machinist. I own and operate the shop my Dad started in 1954. My first paying lathe job for Dad was when I was 12. I love the work as much now as back then.

    I'll give you your cotis back if you give me a new brain. The current brain is rapidly losing the folds.

    My first job was mopping the floor in my Dad's grocery.

    Since then, the work has been much less demanding.
