I hold up a cardboard sign on street corners that says, Vote obama! The government owes me more stimulus.

it really is an enjoyable job, I get lots of verbal engagement with passing motorist. recently I have been doing this in black face. Even more people talk to me now.

Jack of a few trades...Union Glazier, also sub-contract labor around the country to glass companies installing glass systems in buildings, flip(ped) houses here in NE FL when times were better and had a few rentals, and do handyman stuff for a few extra dollars when it arises.

I love Jacksonville.

Let's see... My wife is my enabler. She loved our first Bronco and bought our second one. I have done whatever it takes-auto mechanic, teacher, carpenter, school custodian, Industrial plant mechanic, etc. etc.etc. I've had to follow her career for the 29 yrs of our marriage.

I'm in the Manufactured Housing Business in WNC.... No tornado wise cracks...

Manufactured housing. Isn't that the technical term for tin sided tornado magnet? I built them in a plant for 2 years and did warranty service in the field for another 12.

Software engineer out of college, retired from that after 12 years to start/run a woodworking business with my husband. Now 10 years later we’re getting back into software, only this time we run the company. It sucks not having a steady paycheck. It’s awesome to do what you want, when you want.

Hey,

Industrial engineering by degree... paint process and paint process fire protection for auto assembly plants. Been on my own for almost 30 years. As Jerry Reed would say... "When you're hot you're hot..." (And the opposite of that which is also very true.)

In high school I wanted to be an engineer in the auto industry. I didn't go down the road I expected; but, it's been a good life. I've worked in many of automotive plants in North America, and for all of the auto companies now making vehicles in North America. I've met a lot of great people. It's been a great career.

Jeff

I am a General Contractor for Williams Company in Orlando Florida. The Company was started in 1920. Getting close to the 100 yr mark here as well.
I Studied Architecture and Builiding Construction at the University of Florida from 1992-1997. I purchased my 69 EB 4 months after my 16th birthday. This February will mark 24 years.

Wow. I have worked with Williams Co. many times through the years. I have worked at Psi since 1990. I wonder if we have crossed paths?
I am also a long time eb owner. I have had mine since '82.
