What's your occupation?

[ebshumidors]

Seems like a lot of ex or current military here (myself included), at least mor than the 6 or 7 % of the population of the country. Also, quite a bit of the mechanical/technical trades. Why do you think that is? This ought to make for some interesting responses.
