I'm 34 and a software consultant for a very large software, hardware, and printer company (shouldn't be too hard to guess what company 
). I also make a decent amount of money as a part-time amateur poker player. If I ever make enough money at it I would like to turn it into a full-time thing.

40 and did Aircraft maintenance most of my working years, Airforce, U S air, Northwest, but 911 took care of that. Working maintenance at a dairy plant now. Not so bad. Even did a year and a half at a ford dealership between the Airforce and U S air.

I'm 23 and I am a tow truck operator. I drive both a wrecker and a flatbed. I'm also about 9 classes away from having bachelors degree in Agribusiness Management that I may or may not ever need.

i'm 28 (yesterday), most recently I was a cnc precision machinist making replacement parts for the machines that make car parts, I bet you can guess I don't do that anymore lol. I've been a industrial heating and cooling installer, concrete laborer, general construction laborer, and am currently a michigan certified EMT but can't get a job doing that either because of a DUI I got almost three years ago. So I guess what i'm trying to say is I'm unemployed and rapidly turning into a house husband cause the wife works and goes to school full time.

Will be 35 next week. I am a Machine Maintenance Specialist for a large Armored car and money processing company that's been in business since 1859. I have certs in Electrical, and welding. In my spare time I rebuild trucks, shoot guns and reload the rounds / shells. I love long range target shooting ( sniper want to be ) and sporting clays, build computers, play computer games, and pretty much what ever I can my hands on as far as heavy equipment.
