I install and rig flight control surfaces on 737's for now, but layoffs are in the future for me and 45,000 others thanks to Osama the a--hole. Looks like I'll have to fall back to working on Acuras and Hondas, until people get over their fears of flying and the economy picks up[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

I am the Vice President of a small commercial diving company ( I work underwater and am a hardhat diver ) and a USCG Licensed Captain. The company I work for has a small submarine and various boats and other fun stuff to play with. I occasionaly get to take a fourwheeler out to one of the islands to do some work with it, getting paid to ride on virgin sand is one of the perks of the job.
I worked in the automotive performance and racing industry in my 20's with Chrysler, Carrol Shelby, Brad Anderson, and ran my own race cars for a number of years. So, I have had a few horsepower under my right foot, and right thumb.

The wife and I own and run a chain of Medieval stores here in Quebec. It's great and I usually make my own hours... but it's a lot of work. ATV'ing is the one and only release from the buisness world! (and the wife...hehe...)

I am a Manufacturing tech/Quality Control for a fiberglass manufacturer. We make the raw fiberglass that goes into ladders, car & truck door panels, bed liners, fiber board, insulation boards, about anything with fiberglass. It's a itchy job but somebody has to do it. I work on a 7-day swing shift. When I am on midnight shift I usually ride my quad to work.

I'm a Fiber Optic Communications Tech on the Trans-Alaska Pipeline. (No, I'm not the idiot that shot a hole in the pipe a couple weeks ago) I work 2 weeks of 12 hour days living in a "dorm" on the pipeline a couple hundred miles from my home. Then I get 2 weeks off to go back to my house near Anchorage and play. All the time away from home sucks, but it pays for the toys. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
