I am a mobile mechanic. Servicing and repairing trucks in parking lots as much as possible and only sending stuff to our shop when I can't or refuse to do it at a customers lot. They did give me a brand new truck this year
Fix shitty ass cars and trucks most ya'll wouldn't drive. Oh, and I do towing/ recovery work. Winters are long days and even longer nights.
The big annual trade show / industry circle jerk is in two weeks. We're rolling out some crazy new ideas that have been stewing in the scary room (our R&D Department) for a few years now. We're either going to be roasted over it, or lauded for doing the impossible and unthinkable - again. You should come walk the show. It'll be fun.
I design and fabricate wood trusses for new construction. This is a house I'm working on now, probably $4 million+ Tha same builder is finishing up a house for Jacoby Ellsbury from the Yankees.
Which show is it again? Where is it? I'm skipping the big one in Germany this year and my trip to China is delayed so I go some open time
I dont know any trade around here that works that way. Ive worked at non-union shops that took breaks every 2 hours. They were all fat-as-shit from so many breaks and the jobs took 4 times too long to finish,and the day actually seemed longer.Its part of the same reason I refuse to work for the Smithsonian/Govt shops.
Do you know Mike Stephens or Rich Manor, they are both in aircraft sales business out here? You too Steve Thompson
You speak truth! Funny all of the misconceptions we encounter with regards to dopamine, even in neuroscience communities outside the direct dopamine community.
If your job is like I think it is, the worst part is all the stupid little rules. I worked in a couple different factory settings when I was young, and I HATED the time clock. I couldn't do it. I need some flexibility.
My daughter has been watching a bunch of that on TV, she is a senior in college, studying nursing. She asked me if we should go into that together after she graduates. I unfortunately, don't know anything about that business, but it seems like it could be an interesting way to make a living. Like many things, I'm sure the education can be quite expensive.
Dude, that's cool. I love it when people do something like this with their life, that can really benefit all of us over time.
I was initially a computer programmer and then moved into computer software sales for 20 years. Got the bright idea I wanted to be an entrepreneur. 2005 I bought a forklift company, so I manage the place and try to do the right thing. I worked less and made more money working in software for someone else, but I now have job security.
