If I told you I would have to terminate you

 

I was wondering if there was a truck driver on here. I brought an 18 wheeler from CO to FL one time and had more fun that should be allowed. I imagine if I had to do it everyday though it would be a whole different deal.

 

machine builder for hix corp!

 

U.S. ARMY
And student for now.

 

Electronics technician, RF tower climber for military contractor....Love that "gubment cheese"....

 

I highly recommend being retired like I am after 27 yrs. working for an insurance co. However I did get a little bored and started working part time as a bra fitting consultant ( not the kind for old car fenders) and amatuer gynecologist.

 

They drove me to kindegarden in a big truck, let me beep the horn and shift the gears. After that it was all I wanted to do!......been racing PETERBUILTS for 31years and enjoyed every mile!

 

Male stripper...I work at night so I can play with cars during the day...and the lighting is so bad the chicks can't see the greasy hands and nails!!

 

Facilities Manager at the University of Texas at Austin.

I LOVE it. I would highly recommend working in higher education; very down to earth people......

 

Yet another stinkin' Grease-monkey, oh, I mean Automotive Technician.

 

Shithauler....Nuff said, of course I tell the strippers and the neighbors I am in the environmental service business...
Being self employed has it's benifits, today not so good 2nd $5000 ECM out on a truck in 16 months.
Tonight I can drink vodka and sleep in.
Being the boss is great, I just need to diversify.
Just looking for the next opportunity!

BTW for the auto guys I spent a couple of years as an Engineer in a GM plant. Glad I got out before the bailout.

EXACTLY why my old man told me to not become a mechanic. He said that I'd get so tired of working on other peoples shit that I wouldn't want to work on my own shit. But I'm sure it's something you enjoy doing and that's what matters.

 

Transmission guy. Strictly domestic automatics. Its a family owned business just my grandpa, my dad, and me. (plus our secratary who might as well be family) Started when I was old enough to push a broom. Now do all of the rebuilding. Went to college for a year and a half, but that sucked. A little caution about the auto industry, my dad hates to work on his own vehicles. He says that he works on everyone elses shit all day and will be damned if he is gonna work on his own after hours. Just a thought.

Sometimes I wish my Dad had told me the same thing

 

Teacher of severe emotionally disturbed students. I'm certified to be an administrator, but don't know if I want to do that with the red tape and nonsense of No Child Left Behind.

 

I can agree with that don't be a tech shit, I was a tech for 5 years, got to the point I wouldn't even go out to the garage, when I joined the navy as a aircraft strutures mechanic I got back into my own cars, and been in em ever since, now I'm a freight conductor for CSX(Crash Spill and Xplode) and I got plenty of time, just not enough money..lol damn union.

You do have one very good advantage. While on duty you can look for old cars and parts. Who going to screw with a cop. Also great for people trying to get on you good side and telling you about old cars.. I have a few friends on the local police force who have done this for many years. Plus they do not have to buy gas.. I will post what I do later..

 

So you're the jerk who's responsible for the fact my T.V. and internet only works half of the time..


I currently sell my own bodily fluids, when not doing that male prostitution gets me by.

I could really really use a real job though..

 

I work 2 jobs currently. By day I am a Meineke shop manager (got my first paycheck today, after 17 years away from that business), by night I am still a real estate broker (just got 2 offers in and 2 new listing appointments for this Sunday), employing a couple of agents in my office in addition to myself.

With what time is left I mess around with race car chassis building and crew on a nostalgia funny car that I occasionally get to take for a spin too

Sounds glamorous and all, but how do your hands smell after a hard days work?

 

I own a Restoration/Custom Paint shop with 3 top-notch employees. (The kind of crew that I only wish I had 30 years ago) I also do hand-lettering and pinstriping (I've owned a sign shop since 1978, also)

 

I fix broken computers for the wobbly sow

 

You should move an hour south and set up shop in San Antonio. More people, less competition.

As for me, I piss people off all day long by taking their water and telling them that a walk through metal detector with detect the man-hole-cover-sized-belt buckle they're wearing and the $5 in nickles they have in their pockets for the Transportation Security Administration.

(IT Manager for a webhosting company)

 

I supervise locomotive engineers for the largest railroad in the United States.

I do efficiency testing and check rides on them.

I am on duty 24/7 for derailments, crossing accidents, etc...I am the guy who downloads the information from the event recorders (black box) on the locomotives.

I can retire in January 2010 and am looking forward to that.
