I'm an Electronic Technician for a large Oilfield services company (you Definitely know them)
Anyways, I keep Large computer automated equipment playing nice with each other and their operator! if one of my toys break I get to be responsible for 28k/hr downtime and holding up a 3 million dollar job for us and a 50 million dollar well for our customers! But, Like tonight nothing broken, I get to just chill in the cab of our Work F350.

yep, basic is where you'll hear and see some of the funniest things of your life, and tech school isn't a bad time either. I hear they shortened AF basic from 8 1/2 down to 6 weeks again? It's easy as long as you blend in with the crowd and do your best to go unnoticed... just don't be the idiot that shows up at lackland with a 'fro and tie-dye tee shirt.
I'll try my best not to stick out, i'd rather not be picked on too terribly much

Jack of all trades, master of none.
~ U.S. Army/heavy equipment mechanic
~ Short order cook/bar tender (philosopher)
~ Ranch hand/fence builder
~ Welder/fabricator/machine operator
~ Logger/choke setter
~ Small engine mechanic
~ Carpenter/home builder
~ Furniture maker/woodworker
~ Heavy equipment operator
~ Long haul truck driver
~ Land broker/property management
~ Backhoe operator/pipe layer in the Bakken oil fields (current)
A lot of interesting professions here on the forum, I admire you guys that can do the same thing for 30 plus years. I suffer from ADHD and need a bit of variety in my work life.

Apparently job-hoppers make more money than the 30 year guys. Makes sense, I guess.
