Whatta y'all do for a living?

[jeep_boss]

I have always wondered about the other masochistic members here that love their TJs do/did for a living.

As for me: I'm in the tech industry, 50|50 mix of executive and hands to keyboard in technical engineering, architecture, and information security.

Work in a manufacturing facility that produces all manner of things. Automotive, Aerospace, and Medical are some of our markets. Been here a bit over 34 years. Still don't know what I want to be when I grow up, however...

I shoot people....

I'm a radiologic technologist, aka Xray tech. Graduated last spring, finally got a full time gig in February working for a mobile outfit. We goto nursing homes and the like to xray folks who are generally non-amublatory. I really enjoy it over the traditional hospital/outpatient (and all the BS that comes with those). I enjoy driving (sometimes a few hundred miles a day), and I try to make the folks day. Many of these folks either have no family, none near, or don't have any visitors during the week. I may be their only visitor for the whole week until the family comes on the weekend....

Cool to see such a variety of careers, and to know that we all have at least one common interest.
