What do you do for a living?

Just got a little curious as of what you guys do for a living. I am nosy, sorry. My parents own an automotive business and just recently brought me in from working on cars to helping out in the office. My mom says I can sell wool underwear in the summer time, so I sell parts instead. jeremy

 

My Dad owns 2 businesses, a jewellery store, and a Security Guard Company. I run the jewellery store, and my brother runs the security company.

 

I think I remember a thread like this before....oh well! I work in a jewellery store (we have somehting in common Janice!) and I am a full time student, studying gemology through the GIA and english lit at the university of ottawa.

 

Yeah, there was a thread like this awhile back. But we've picked up alot of new people, so we should get plenty of new responces.
I'm an electrical engineer.

 

I worked as a vet. tech and receptionist for 14 years. I loved every minute of it. Now I am at home taking care of my 26 month old son as well as babysitting my 22 month old grandson.

 

:shock: Say again???

 

Yes, I have a pair of older twins ages 21 { girl and boy} and a daughter at the age of 17 then I now have my youngest surprise son of two years old. My oldest daughter and I were pregnant at the same time. The boys are 4 months apart. It's like having twins around again! It's trying on my older body! haha

 

full time student, Game Design. working at the baseball park, off-season at a gas station [grrrr...stupid ppl]

I work at a Vons grocery store.

 

Janice,
If you lived in this area I would have you over to show you how cool it is. LOL
I forgot, I also do the tax and payroll stuff for my husband's masonry company. I just always forget that since I would do it for my husband anyway.

 

Auto technician for Ford

 

Awesome slowfoxbird... Whats your specialty? You ASE?

 

Not ASE yet, but I am Ford certified in electronics, manual trans, drivetrain, suspension, and brakes. I am working on more, I only need my auto trans cert, and the ASE for electrical, manual and auto trans, and I will be a Drivetrain Master Technician. I am just too lazy to drive to take the ASE right now. I will in the spring though.

 

Lol, I am almost ASE certified in brakes and steering and suspension. For right now I am in the office selling parts/labor, its alot harder than working on the floor! Customers! lol, good luck on the training, if you practise pracise you can do it. later

 

I own a roofing co.. We do mostly standing seam metal roof's{Not cheap}. We also do chimney flashing repairs on roof's like slate, tile and cedar shake{more difficult and more costly}. Lot's of copper work. My wife does the book's and payroll{talk about somebody that like's bossing the guy's around}, She even tell's me what to do{appointments, meetings and such}. I stood my ground. The guy's know who's boss. She comes out of the office and tell's us what we're doing everyday. Oh well. You know what they say; Behind every great man, is a better woman.

 

I irritate forum admins..... the pay sucks but it is very rewarding in other ways.

 

I'm the Systems Analyst (read do it all computer guy) for a Police Department just outside of Houston. My wife homeschools our 7 year old son and works part time for the church she attends.
