What does everyone do for their "real" job?

Industrial mechanic at the big D. Pretty sure I'm not doing what I love, but I still don't know what that is yet. Nice border wab, I have one, shes a little over a year.
 
Heavy Mobile Equipment Tech for the Fed working on National Guard equipment, and then a wheeled vehicle mechanic in the Utah Army National Guard.

Well I guess I am used to it by now. She's a sweetheart though. Girlfriend wants another as well, but a wheaten terrier this time. I'm going to move to the garage.

Sir, my bachelor's is in Agriculture, and I'm turning wrenches on Army trucks and tracked field artillery, several other NCO's at my shop have degrees in Psychology, History, Education, etc.... just goes to show that it's all a piece of paper in the end. We even have a few guys that resigned Captain's commissions to return to the NCO world and ended up as mechanics as life moved on.

Cool, there are some good roads, turns wise, condition can be sketchy but scenery etc. is usually pretty good with coast lines and rivers etc. I like NS too, my sister lives in Kentville so I go there and Halifax a few times a year.

I lived in Halifax for the past 8 years, but just moved back to NB, where i grew up. I put around 50K km's around the province on my sport bike. Where about are you?
 
Dartmouth. When mother-in-law was alive, she had lived in Moncton and Rexton for many years. We went to NB many times to visit. . Great province.

I love it honestly it was either that or a desk job, this lets me get out and walk around on the flightline plus I work with the best troops in the world. Were the only ones that actually do work in the AF haha but the job experience for the future is the best part.
 
I know this is an older thread, but I enjoyed reading through it and seeing what people do for a living, so I thought I'd post my own.

I'm currently the project manager of an election program in California. Outside of that, I'm working on my MBA and hope to get into project management with an automotive manufacturer after I graduate.
 
I like that this thread has been revived.

I know it will come as a huge shock to all of you... but I'm a hairdresser. Ha. Been in the business for ten years. I work in a salon and also do on-location styling for weddings and special events.
I love my job :)
