I work in IT.  Yay for computers... but what I really want to eventually "retire" to do is farm.  I've got a small grassfed beef operation the wife and I are working on making big enough to pay the bills :)

 ;D - job(s)!
First, my respects to all who serve/ed. We can't do enough for you who have done so much for us all. Is Drifting a job? I dropped out of college in 81 and sailed on various Tall Ships/Windjammers for 4 yrs. Then apprenticed as a boat builder/master carpenter for 3 more years. Started my own log building company in New England in 87 - caught my partner embezzling, built 8 log homes in 14 months, closed the company. 89 went back to boat building, built my own 22 ft. dive boat and started commercial diving. 91 went back to college at Maine Maritime Academy. 96 went to work for Global Marine Drilling - The company that did the Jennifer project, I have a phone from the Glomar Explorer. Have been in the offshore oil drilling industry since as either an employee or consultant. Currently working for Diamond 4 weeks on, 4 weeks off as Mechanical Superindendent. Fantasy job, marine archeology. I actually have my own 2 man submarine!

U.S. Army, '84-'92, 62B primary(construction equipment mech)31C secondary(radio teletype commo). Started welding and fabricating in '93 and haven't looked back. I've been able to move out of the grunt work and into lasers and robotics and I'm currently the shop foreman/safety officer/robotics tech for a small manufacturing company in northeast Kansas. Not very glamorous, but I enjoy what I do and it pays the bills, lol!

Chief RN at Childrens Critical Stabilization Unit in Ft Myers Fl..  Behavioral/Psychiatric unit that caters to kids who are being abused, psychotic, mad at mom/dad or both, drama queens, drinkers, dopers. They are brought in off the streets or by family, or by the police. and usually involuntary. It's always interesting.
My '04 Drifter 1500 is my therapy, I always ride it to work as weather allows.

VN1500... as a former sailor of the seven seas ... let me assure you the fantasy is much better than the reality!  Now a charter Captain for naked cruises in the South Seas... I'd give that a lot of thought... in fact... let me check that bank account again...

I work at UPS supporting the aircraft engineers. I also sell vintage toys on Ebay and work on cars and airplanes on the side.  All in all, not a bad way to make a living.
