I'm sure not everyone on here is a full time Ported saw polisher, or wood cuttin wonder... What pays your bills?

I myself, am an electrician, a sparky if you will. I do enjoy my job...in the process of traveling for work now...not overly excited about that, as I have always been able to stay close to home.

Mechanic here. For 10ish years I was a home dad with my own shop on the side fixing mostly vws. I also bought and sold saws/parts on the side of that. :). Having a real job again sucks.

Hmmmm...where is the best place to get a rebuilt head for a 2.0 Jetta. Lost the timing belt on mine about 6 months ago, and haven't taken the time to fix it. I haven't torn into it yet...wanting to make sure I have the proper parts first. Hoping I'll only need a rebuilt head. Research I have done has told me, as an interference motor..that is the least I am looking at.

I'm a Radiographer, ie: x-ray tech. I cover M.R.I, CAT Scan and do Plain Film,,,I was also vocationally schooled in auto/diesel repair many, many years ago and still still like to wrench around on my own junk.

One of my last jobs was helping install a new CAT. That was a pretty fun project. Had to remove the old one, and retrofit everything for the new one.

Union electrician. got tired of traveling and being laid off.
Took a job at a Iron ore mine now laid off again for market flooding.
I should find out if the Donald still needs apprentices.
Lol..just to get laid off again:). This is my first time traveling. Been with the same company for 10 years. But I have had my fair share of off time, which is why I quit to travel.
