So, I've noticed that BAX has mentioned several jobs he has throughout this thread. He must be to embarrassed to mention the job he used to have at the eye glass factory..... He was an operator on the lens grinder and one day he fell asleep and fell in the lens grinder machine. He made a real spectacle of himself......

I'll be here all night folks, I'm also available to jump out of cakes at the bachlorette party(although I may end up staying in there and eating the cake), I do a real awesome Michael Jackson impression(Thriller era) complete with moonwalk, and for the right price....."escorting"

I spent 20 years active duty Army before retiring into my second career of teaching 7th and 8th grade students at a junior high school!

It was probably safer in the Army Thank you for your service, it is greatly appreciated, then and now.

I worked at a utility company when i was young, and thats where i learned thatch you dont get to come home after working with unsafe co workers. I recieved a 12000frickin volt blast through my left hand..which exited through both feet. When I re entered my body it was being worked on in a hospital. I did go back to that compay and stayed almost 10 years. Over the last 20nite have been repaired more than my bronco has.....Today I own a bar in oregon.....o

I'm a graphic designer & art director for extreme sports. I make logos, magazine ads, websites, posters, stickers, t-shirts, etc.

Weekends I'm an AFF & tandem skydiving instructor and shoot video. I also design & sell Bronco related tshirts/ decals... So whatever my wife doesn't get goes to Uncle Sam & my bronco.

Graduated as mechanical engineer -spent 10 years in automotive aftermarket designing and marketing car parts and finished my time at that job as a IT specailist. I have been in pharmaceutical marketing for 9 years. Not sure I made that transition!

I restore one car a year on the side to a pretty high standard and that is how I pay for my Bronco stuff. I painted a car two years ago and used some of the money to buy my Bronco!

Police officer in Massillon,Ohio. Town of approximate 35-40k people. Love my job and have about 6 years in. Although I have always wanted to be a high school teacher and coach football in the fall. That could be in the future. I will retire at 48 so I gotta do something at that point.
