your occupation

In the thread on student loans, several people mentioned degrees they had earned, which was interesting. That made me curious: what do you do for a living?

I'll start: I'm a biomed tech (I repair medical equipment). I also work about one Saturday a month at the local NAPA.

I started working my way though college as a dishwasher but discovered there was more money being a stripper. Usually we would work at night, (and often all night long). The money was good and the hours allowed me time for school. I'll admit, when I first started, I was a little scared because I had heard so many stories about fellows getting hurt. But my co-workers told me to relax and just go with the flow. What I discovered was that a steady rhythm was the key, (that - and it's really all in how you use your hips). That's not to say I didn't make mistakes. The very first time I plugged in the buffer, the switch was already in the "on" position. It wrapped the power cord around the motor quicker than you can say "Jack Robinson." Lesson learned, before you start stripping floors, make sure the machine is turned off.
