So what do you all do to pay the bills. I am a Crane Technician for Nucor Steel in Memphis, I get to hang out 100ft in the air in some nasty 160deg meltshop. But it pays good and its secure.
Locomotive engineer; the post office ain't got anything on a railroad...we invented the phrase..."nor rain, snow, or sleet keeps us from our duties". And we do it 24/7....regardless if it's a holiday or not.

We are located at the southend of the CN yard here in memphis. We have a loco that is on site here, my Brother in Law use to run it. Man those cars will creep up on ya in our yards. I guess they are called "silent Killers"?
I pick cotton. The funny thing is that Im pretty much telling the truth. I keep machines running that make knee high stockings & panty hoes. Really really need a new job. I would love to get back in a shop & dont care if its semi trucks or normal vehicles.
Almost ashamed to admit this. I've worked as a service tech at GM dealerships for over 20 years. Also got a part-time gig restoring old cars and building hot rods.

Nah, just proves that there's a solid paycheck repairing "Chubby's" & "Gimmies"; I'm sure there's some Bowtie Guy that's worked 20 years for a Ford dealership that says the same thing.

Don't kid yourself, I pass by the local Ford dealership on the way to work everyday and there's cars waiting to be worked on there, too.
Actually, I was working at a tire store in SoCal back in the day and I had just gotten my ASE Master certification for the first time. My wife mentioned it in conversation with someone in the line at the supermarket who happened to be the shop foreman at the local Chevy dealer. He told her to have me apply, I did, and here I am 20+ years later.
