Chuckaroo #13080 Regulator 170 Posted March 12, 2011 Retired in '96 after 30 years working for the Old Ma Bell (when they gave a hoot). When my 401K went bye, bye, I started an engraving business.

Blastmaster 0 Posted March 12, 2011 I help provide affordable, self depended and clean electricity that powers domestic, industrial and govermental facilities of the USA. I help expand the Carbon Footprint of the world. The alternative is even uglier but that is for another thread. I am a Mining Engineer at a Surface Coal Mine that supplies the fuel (coal) that runs the power plants that generate 50% of the USA electric needs. Right now, Japan wishes they had more electric power to take the place of what isn't being generated by their nuke plants that are down cause of the quake. I get to work with computers, GPS's,electronics, internets, explosives, big industrial size shovels, trucks, dozers and view the eagles, deer, elk, foxes, bugs, bunnies, varmits, weeds and bushes of the mine reclamation.

Creeker, SASS #43022 1,247 Posted March 12, 2011 I just got ta wonderin what folks do or have done ta make a living? Some I know, but alot I have no idea. Creeker and I have agreed some here lately on several post and lookin at his picture he kinda looks like a brick mason er a plumber He He He ( Hell he's probably a doctor) Just wonderin??? I'm a carpenter, I do some new const. but mostly remodeling and additions, right now whatever pays tha dam gas bill. What you fellers an ladies do so you can buy guns and bullets? RRR Well, unfortunately - I am not brick mason, plumber or a Dr. For the last 10 years, I was the firearms manager for a national Pawnshop chain - I handled all the firearms liquidation, regulatory compliance, safety training and internal policy creation. When the economy went south (and yes, it goes south for pawnshops as well as everything else) - my job got transferred to the corporate offices in Ft. Worth. So I became an unemployed bum. My family owns a gunshop here in Nevada and I am a Concealed Weapons Instructor, so I have been surviving by doing CCW classes and new shooter training sessions. Hopefully, things get better and I can get back to bossing other folks around pretty soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phiren Smoke GUNFIGHTER 36 Posted March 12, 2011 I am a retired fire fighter. I have considered different options for a second career, but I can not think of anything better than getting paid to do what ever I want. I might try that playmate interviewer thing, but they are not exactly known for their conversational skills, and my lovely wife has the rest covered any way. Wow, typing it out like this makes me realize I got it pretty good. Thank you for asking RRR Smoke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
