Job #1 - sales @ an Industrial cutting tool & abrasives distributor Job #2 - coolant service tech. on bandsaws & grinders Job #3 - sales @ Lowes Home Imp. All together approx 68-76 hours a week. My 2002 ranger should be paid for by February 2003. After that I will cut back to just 2 jobs. Unless I happen to win the lottery first, then I can just spend time with my truck.

Investment Rep. Pretty much hold peoples hands through this crap market. Just started my own Landscape services company though. Will go full time with that next April. Tired of busting my hump and getting zero credit or advancement for it, so I will control my own fate with my company.

I own a produce company located in central Phoenix. I started off as a driver 8 years ago...one thing led to another and now I own the company and employ 20 people. The hours are nice (4am to 7am Mon to Fri). They allow me to pursue my true passion- Wing Chun Kung fu.

I am an internet account manager and ebusiness technical consultant...

I used to be a systems administrator, but the hours were killer!!!

I love to troubleshoot things, no matter what they are..trucks are no exception..The computers in these things are pretty simple...Amazing they last any time at all considering the stresses they can be put under....
