What's your occupation?

[taylor5633]

I have 5 years firefighting/ems experience, currently looking for a paid full time position. For almost 2 years now, I've been working for Dunbar armored as a driver/guard. Picking up valuables and getting dirty looks from pedestrians when I block the crosswalk. Doesn't get any better. Oh, and I also used to fill/service fire extinguishers (nasty stuff, had to clean it out of my ears every day)

In my spare time I love gardening and spending time at my lake house in Northern Indiana. My refrigerator is full of asparagus right now and looking forward to the strawberries about to ripe.
Happy Smoking all!

Worked in the Civil Engineering field, as a Draftsman, for years. Got tired of the very long hours and endless deadlines. Now, I search for dead people! For the past 7 years, I have worked at a genealogical library and help patrons research their family history. I had 30 years of research experience with my own family and helping friends prior to being paid to do it. I love my job!

I see more than a few people here are in the auto industry.  I am a robot/ equipment technician for a major auto manufacturer.  My previous career was automotive technician.  I love what I do but TONS of overtime, weekends, and holiday work keep me off the smoker.

I try to finance my new smoking addiction with my job as a cabinetmaker.  I am a self employed one man shop that builds custom kitchens, entertainment units , fireplaces etc. (check out www.craigcustomcabinets.com to see some work. 

I've only just been introduced to the world of smoking and am already addicted.  I find myself thinking about bbq almost always.  My job lends itself nicely to smoking because i have a steady flow of nicely seasoned chunks of wood.  Usually hard maple but sometimes cherry, oak or hickory.  I also have been using fire to heat my house for the last 10 yrs.  i live in Canada so i always keep lots of wood around.

cheers and happy smoking!!
