Hey all, I was just curious what everyone does for a living? I know it has probably been brought up before but oh well. I personally help build luxury motorcoaches(and you thought your trucks were nice). I actually only build the drawers but hey its a job. If you want to see some of our work check out www.marathoncoach.com. Have a good evening now i'm going to bed.

I am a guitar player. I am just currently in between gigs. Dang, I need to get a job.

 

I'm a Rocket Scientist ....Ok,ok, I'm a Chemical Technician but I do, do a lot of work on rockets and satellites...my kids like to call me a rocket scientist though......

 

I am a civil engineer and I design roads for a private consulting firm. Attached is a screen capture of the latest job I am working on.

 

I make license plates. I have job security for the next 5 to 7 years.

I used to be a bank robber but, it is a very unforgiving field.
One little mistake and you're out of work.

 

What does everyone do?
When?

For money:
I am a contractor for delivery.
I also watch a neighbor kid and run him to and from school.
I do some other ocasional jobs though.

 

I'm a geologist/environmental scientist. Their's nothing like getting paid to play in dirt and water!

 

I work on a Ranch. Not here in Ohio, but in Wyoming. Pretty sweet job. Get to use trucks and tractors all day, do work on horseback once and a while, fix fence, repair bridges, cut the grass, etc.

BlueFlareside, how do you like that job? I thought about getting a degree in Civil Engineering but decided against it, because i thought i'd have more fun as a cop

DanB 360,

I am sure that being a civil engineer is not quite as exciting as being a cop or a cowboy but I love it.

I have always liked math and science and I love to draw. It can be tedious at times but there is always some new problem to fix every day.

The best part of my job is when I get to do conceptual layouts of new interchanges. I have done quite a few that have gone on to be designed by another firm (we are general consultants to some big agencies so we manage the design jobs for them). One of the interchanges I helped design was the new one at the Fort Lauderdale Airport with US 1 and I-595. I have done a couple in Puerto Rico and just finished one in Austin, TX.

 

Maintenance Technician in a hospital/medical center. Main function is repairs and electrical testing of hospital beds, as well as maint in Surgery, GI Lab and two patient units. ennis

 

I design traffic signals for SCDOT and I am responsible for all specificantions for how they are built and what is used. I am also a civil engineer. I am 1/2 way to retirement next month!

Hey BlueFlareside, thats about as close to an Urban diamond as you can get without it being one isn't it? Looks like the two single thru lanes are the extra. Looks like someone is going to be securing a lot of R/W.

 

I always loved construction type of work, design and that stuff. Of course, i blow at math, so i'd have a hell of a time trying to learn calculus. The guy that owns the ranch i work on is a civil engineer. He used to build missile silos and i think he did a little work with interstates. He's a pretty smart guy.

 

well i sell storage, a strange busness but brings in ALOT of money. to bad i dont get all of it but i get paid well enough to stay.

I live in Austin, that project you just compleated, would it have been at I-35 and 290? i live not to far from there and love the new overpasses. i just hated it when the construction is being done. if you had a hand in that one good job, i bet i cuts a couple min. off of a communit
