I'm a web designer/developer slash graphic designer for a small marketing and advertising agency. Unfortunately, the V8 T never came out of the barn this summer. I spend most of my paycheck saving for the day the revolving door hits me and most of my time looking at the cars for sale section and dreaming.

Im a used car tech for a Honda/Toyota dealership. After 9 years of being a line tech for Jeep, Honda, and Mazda its nice to not have to deal w/ b*tching, whining customers that always want something for nothing. All I have to do now is deal with the sleazeball used car managers!:rolleyes:

I am a Utah State Safety Inspector and a Salt Lake County I/M Tech. I am also going to school. Working on getting my Associate of Applied Science Degree in Mortuary Science.






Yes, yes....I hope to be a mortician.:eek:
 
I am a service technician for P&H crane, in the overhead crane industry. I am the only working project manager we have in the Houston area. I have seen more money in the last year than the previous two almost. I love using HUGE cranes to put up even larger ones. I think it takes all kinds to make the world go round but I work where you don't get a second chance. Wouldn't change it for anything. 4 years in the army 31-D was lots of "fun":wink: Doing great buy what I want when I want BUT I am tight with my funds!!!
 
OK, I guess I shoulda said the economy here in Michigan sucks (quoted as being 2nd worst in all of U.S.)! I've considered packing up & leaving..... but ALL of my family & friends are here, and I've been here all my life!

Any decent paying jobs in Mich? (that are hiring??)

Appreciate everyone's replies! Keep 'em coming! :smile:
 
Retired Navy GMG, Civil Service now as a Small Arms Instructor(FDLE certified)/Explosives Handler for the Navy. Wifes job buys anything I want or need, she is free with the purse strings as long as I'm convincing enough.
 
With the economy as bad as it is today, just curious what GN owners do for a living? Or how do you support your Buick (racing/show/accumulating parts) habits?

Economy bad? You better quit watching Communist News Network, and the alphabet networks. ;)
