barra Report post Posted January 13, 2009 http://www.defencejobs.gov.au/airforce/job...eSupportFitter/ Here's what I do to fill in the day and nights, and weekends and Xmas day. being one of the bosses I don't get to do a lot of hands on at the bench these days but I still like to get behind the sewing machines and play. I find it the best stress relief from the grind of a managerial position. Barra Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HarryB Report post Posted January 13, 2009 Well, here's my 2 cents worth. I was a design engineer draftsman for a few years and then went into law enforcement. With my sheriff's office for 17 years and both my wife and I got a wild bug up our rear ends and moved to the beautiful Colorado Rockies for 12 years where I had a leather shop, restaurant for three years and built custom cabinets and counter tops. Moved back "home" and went back to work for the sheriff's office. 4 more years and I'm back to full-time leather work! Great to see everyone's diverse experiences.

Windy Report post Posted January 14, 2009 I am going to tell you but y'all in law enforcement close your eyes for ten seconds. I am the local crack dealer. It is not a glorious job but hey it is simple and filled with thrills. I mean where else can you make fast money and get to shoot the competition. Okay I admit it that is my dream job. My real job is baby sitting grown men who claim to be bricklayers. Me and my brother have a bricklaying business. WINDY Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete Report post Posted January 14, 2009 I taught myself to trade commodities and stocks and set up a portfolio for my family. It takes about 15 minutes a day to monitor it so I play and teach golf, leatherwork, and music. 7 years on the road and 5 years before that in partnership with 3 others in a recording studio in California. Recorded LOT's of Sting, Van Morrison, movie soundtracks etc. Mostly I wrote "jingles" for Chevrolet, Macy's, Joseph Magnins, Lucky and Safeway stores. etc.. College rodeo and pre-vet school before that. I fish when it's too cold or windy to play golf Moved to arkansas 15 years ago- best thing that I ever did. pete Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
