What do you do for a living?

[TRUTH over TRADITION]

I wish I could have been a voice action like Peter Cullen or James Earl Jones, but the pipes the Good Lord gave me aren't quite as inspiriing as theirs, so I decided to go into the world of finance. I've been a banker and a broker for most of my working life.

 

[Prentis]

I'm new here, so I figure this is a good way of starting

I operate machines in the packaging department of a granola bar factory... Yes I package granola bars... No, I can't bring you some from work

Come on! I've seen the show! A lot of people have. The gig is up, McGyver. But you'll probably be able to use 2 toothpicks and a ball point pen to get out of these fibs.

:rolling

 

[RockyVanRen]

I'll jump in. I'm a conductor with Amtrak.

I am out of work

I am normally a computer tech. I have an interview this week for a Helpdesk/tech support position. My sister died late last year. She I had to move back to Memphis,Tn in Feb.because of some care issues for her children. I have been out of work since. Can you guys pray I get the job? At least if not that one,one that's in his will?

Thanks and God Bless:help

 

[reba]

Yes Larry

After being Mom which is number 1.

I worked maintenance at Cobb Mt Spring Water for about 10 years. The best Job i ever had. Got to work on machines and paint the building while bringing cake pies and cookies to the crew! They still din't let me drive the forklift

 

[jasoncran]

forklifts are easy to work. i can operate those as we have too. i do maintance on those.

 

[reba]

You have never seen me drive backwards :toofunny

 

[Pard]

Careers... my arch nemesis.

I'm a full time student all year long (the summer semester has me racking up 22 credits). I'm also a full time son, but I'm more than willing to contract those services out to the highest bidder.

 

[jasoncran]

You have never seen me drive backwards :toofunny

you said it not me. i struggled with backing up with a trailer attached.

hmm a thread on what pieces of equipment can you operate or have a license on.

 

[Mike]

I'm making another career change. Actually, I'm returning to an area I used to work in about 15 years ago... Managed Care. I'll be the Network Administrator for an HMO. No, I'm not an IT guy. I'll negotiate rates of reimbursement this HMO pays Hospitals, doctors and ancillary providers in our network of providers.

So, yeah. I'm that guy who tells your doctor he's gonna get dinged if he orders too much and goes over-budget for the year. :gah On the up-side, the goal is to keep your premiums down to a reasonable level. I start on June 6th and have this week to kick around, do some end-of-the-year school parties with my kids and get some things done around the house for the honey.

Larry, several years ago my position was eliminated and I found myself without a job. My employer paid for a VERY EXPENSIVE transitional career counseling company where I learned some extremely powerful advice for nailing jobs. If you're ever interested in talking about your career plan, feel free to PM me. I have a lot to share. But I've prayed that you land on your feet soon. Try not to let it defeat you personally. You are NOT what you do for a paycheck. You're so much more than that! :yes

Wow, you brought out Welker and I've been unclooked! HUGE Transformers fan here!

lol as am i. i have the entire set on dvd and have been watching transformers from season two and will watch the remaining one in that set and also finished season three off as well. i picked favorites episodes that i liked and watched them first.

anything with the history of siebertron(how the show spelled it) i liked. alpha trion aka a3 is one my favorite charachters. i also like omega supreme, the ariel bots, the stunticons(motor master was voiced by the guy who played hardcourt fenton mudd the third and he also did cyclonus in season three, but was replaced by jack angel who was the voice of ratchet).

Hahahahaha! You are almost as big a Tf nerd as I am! I too have the G1 series on DVD and I even write fanfics on www.tfw2005.com. Gotta love those bots!

 

[Prentis]

I'll pray for you Larry, I hope it goes well... And keep us updated, this is the perfect thread to do so ;)

There ARE forklifts where I work, but not for me to drive! Only for the wharehouse guys! They don't need me to drive it either so...

i would say as big. i did alot of pre writing in my head of the origins of life on siebertron and the quints/quintessons and vector sigma.

i took megatron and optimus prime and made them brothers and had a charachter i modified that created them orginally(orion paks and megatron as some other name , and alpha trion recreated orion into prime per that episode war dawn)

on vector sigma i didnt understand much on philosophy then so i had him as more of machine that had some control over it to force it to create evil and good.

now i would christianize that machine in that he or it doesnt create good or bad charachters just makes a personality based on the machinery and then lets them choose where to go. they have a tendency to be like human in that nature do evil more so then good.

 

[grovenored]

Praying for you, Larry; keep us up-to-date!

Wow, lots of Tech guys here...
I currently do three things. I'm a part-time coach at a trampolining club (which I've done for three years), I do part-time P.E teaching at a primary school, and I'm a full-time student studying to become a qualified teacher.
