What you guys do for a liveing?

I work as an electrician in a fluid milk processing plant. I became interested in electricity at a young age,if I recall it all started when I disassembled my grandpas radio ;D I continued my training in the USN (FC) and attended college as well...
At my current job
I deal with all aspects of the plant,to include hydraulic,pneumatics and mechanical as well as parts ordering and boiler maintenance and testing.
But my true passion is electronics,be it power or control circuits,PLC or HMI programming or circuit troubleshooting anything that will make a spark gets my interest... :laughing7:
I also run a small computer building and repair business from home
That's about it...

I remember taking apart a small TV,pretty old one too. I would take the copper out and save it then through it away. :laughing7:
I tried fixing my very, very old gameboy.It only had three games. I remember spilling lemon juice on it trying to clean a coin. I heard it going zipp. zipp. zipp,so I took it apart and dried all the parts and found that I couldn't get it back together because the pieces where so small.
When I was in grade school I learned how hot a battery can make a paper clip get.By bending the paper clip out and sticking it to both ends. The teacher didn't seem to care that i could burn my fingers off. I like getting a radio antenna and sticking a bunch of wires and junk on it to see if I could get a better signal with the stations, I have found out that putting a gold ring around the antenna helps it a bit. :dontknow:

Program Manager for several Intel/Defense contracts. Wondering whether I should take my MD on the next trip to NOVA.
 

I bale foam doesn't pay much but its easy and no one really bothers me, plus I love a job with no time limits.
 

I was the maintenance supervisor at an exhaust tube manufacturing plant. I retired three weeks ago after 40 years of service.
 

I am currently unemployed (mostly because the United States has child labor laws), but I do a few odd jobs (some odder than others). I am looking to go to the railroad and find work there once I move out of the house, which will be pretty soon.
