I'm a Project Supervisor for an industrial demolition contractor. Been doing it for almost 7 years and plan on atleast another 3 before I find something else to do so that I am home more and have time to play with the Bronco.

I'm a cop, Marine Corps before that. I have 4 years until I can retire, but I might not leave that soon. Depends whether or not I can line something up that pays the bills. My second job is coming up with different schemes to get my wife to give me bronco money ;D... If izzy paid me for every time I said "I told ya so" I'd be rich by now, lol

When I first bought my bronco I was in college and worked every type of job you can think of. Most $ went toward my bronco. I'm a teacher now which pays the bills but I started a landscaping business to pay for the bronco. Hoping to find a vice-principal job but jobs are hard to come by.

Work in a Bodyshop at a dealership, unfortunately, not Ford. Been doing bodywork for over 20 years. Sounds like everyone has cool jobs. Wish I would have paid more attention when I was in school.;D:eek:

.. I started real life as an auto store parts man for 30 years..
and I liked BBQ.
.. Then I kicked around for 2 years hauling dairy cow to a kill plant. Having grown up on a dairy I really liked this job ..and it was good money.
...Then got back into the Auto Parts Business.. Was a P/R rep for Parts Plus 7 years. Loved that Job.. I was single about this time and I liked Cold Beer !!
...Damn I had fun then!!
... 9'11'01..... Killed the fun.
... Went to work for Dodge as a Service Adviser .. man I hated that job .7 years of HELL
... Got Fired..for helping the customer more than they said I needed too..
.... Did I mention I liked cold Beer better now than ever!!
.. So got a job as a Glorified Delivery Boy Now .. I now like Ice Cream & Beer ..
.. I'm still farming "some'' and I have 2 rent houses'' Working 55 hours + a week ..& I still like.. BBQ.. Beer .. Ice Cream.. and although I'm and old fart.. I still enjoy Life .. No Longer in the Chips But Damn I'm in far a good time...

Great thread, always curious about this stuff myself :). I am the CIO for a large community health center in the Central Valley. Great job and I love the organization. I also love that I can live in a fairly small town.

I have some good friends who drive one of those midsized Expedited deliver trucks for Fed Ex. I'd like to do that, but hate driving when i'm sleepy.
