    Hey guys and gals. Not sure if this has been done before but I figured I'd start a thread about what we all do for a living. I'll start off by saying I'm a brewery worker at MillerCoors. Make those sudsy yum yums everyone certainly enjoys after splitting that wood! I love my job.

    IT customer service, 35+yrs. Semi retired last April.
    Work part time for as long as I want to.
    Part time is really a pretty good gig.

    Now, ride my bike, scrounge for fire wood, look for cool things in
    old pieces of wood, play in the water in my garden, play w/the pupp'ner dog,
    fix stuff around the house, build stuff. Very grateful!

    For the last 4 years I have been a contracts administrator (should be analyst because that is all I do with contracts). I also am the Prime Customer portal administrator, lead internal auditor, closest thing to an AS9100 expert for the company, and a few other things for a small manufacturing company.

    Before working at my current job I was a custom software buster (found all the bugs for the programmer), Documentation/ISO Specialist, Quality Systems Coordinator, and Crystal grower (sapphire near net shape formation). Way before that I was a pet groomer, an order puller/loader for a liquor distributor, and did lots of fast food work. I've also held part time jobs as an office cleaner and auditor for the 2010 census as well as pet-sitting.

    Obviously, I'm about due for a change in career - I don't seem to stay with any one for too long ;)
