Hello, You'll have to speak to my wife "LaurieFSU" because she holds all the degrees you seek. I'm sure she would answer any questions and/or concerns you might have. MMG

Right now I'm managing a small automotive repair shop for a friend of mine. He covers the overhead, I do the work and deal with the customers, we split the profits right down the middle.

He likes having me around. We've gained more customers since I've taken over and it's bettered his shop. Before all he'd touch was brakes and suspension, oil changes, fuel pumps, things like that. Now I do everything under the sun from LOF's to driveability to engine rebuilds.

When I came in and ran the idea of turning the unused back bay into a body and paint bay he jumped on it. 20+ years of automotive work and I've been professionally paid to do everything to a car except drive 'em and sell 'em.
 
I am a plumbing contractor and have been in business for 8 years. We are continuing to grow, in spite of the government and the recession.
 
Cool thread.Neat to see all the interesting jobs out there.

I've worked as a machinist,auto mechanic as well as owning an auto wrecking yard and a towing company in the past.

I've worked as an elevator tech for about 4 years now and it's a great except for all the lame jokes I get about the job having its ups and downs...

Here's what I get to wrap my brain around on a daily basis...

Wow, all you guys with a real job... I'm a stay home Dad, two boys 4 and 2. (I do work occasionally, I fix choppers from time to time, did 10 yrs in the services)
I get to send my wife to work, AND get to work on the Charger when she gets home. During the day we build stuff, play, fix up things on the property etc. Kinda cool...
It feels good to be spending someone elses money, know what I mean?

I won't put one of the lame jokes in here.

The body shop I started off in so many years ago was on the third floor of the building. The only way to get to the shop was by putting the car on an elevator and running it up. Load a full size conversion fan on it and the danged thing would drop six inches as soon as the front tires were all on. Scary moments!
 
Concord N.C I issue parts to techs,order and receive parts ans keep a 300,000 doolar parts room in order
 
was in the Marine Corps for five years as a airframes and hydrualics mech and as aircrew on the MV-22 Osprey, and now I do courseware Q.A. for pilots and aircrew on the CV-22Osprey.
 
I'm a self-underemployed remodeling contractor. As a matter of fact I just spoke with a young urban professional who is having trouble remembering the amount of money he agreed to pay me a week ago. His job is to grind down sub-contractors for a giant developer, so I'm not surprised by his lack of common decency.

Sounds like a big old beast of a freight elevator if you could drive a car onto it.The drop would probably be from the cables stretching with the added weight which is normal but not usually noticable unless you get into the elevator with a load of weights or a bunch of linebackers.Those conversion vans are probably close to three tons so they'd definitely stretch out the cables.
