I work at a big Carpenter shop making high quality german staircases.
My Job is just about everywhere. Mostly CNC Programmer and Network Administrator.
The rest of the time I always find something to plan, sand, paint or install.

After High School I joined the Army and became a Tank Turret Repairman.
That was a blast.

That is cool. My daughter is almost done with her MLT degree. She plans on going on to get her MT and eventually wants to go into Pathology.

During the day, oriental rug sales here

By night, "facilities management" (cough*Janitor*cough) here

I've been working 70 hours a week (all of it on my feet) for about six months, while my wife looks for a job. But in this economy, I feel lucky just to be employed, even if I am a college-educated janitor.
