Default What do you do for a living??

Hey guys, i'm fairly new here and i'm not sure if this was ever on here before or not, but i think it would be interesting to know what everyone does for a living. The way it looks, you guys have plenty of time and money to put into fishing, and it certainly helped me.

To start, Firefighter EMT here. Work 24/48

some fatf**k at work ran over my left foot with a toyota lift about 20 years ago, about all it did was push the steel toe in my boot back a few inches.

When I was 14, I was making $1.00 an hour shoveling cow manure and throwing hay.
I'm 57 now and have been a route driver for the last 30 years. I just moved to Georgia the first of this year and have a snack route (chips, pretzels, etc.).
I also play lead guitar and sing in a couple local country/classic rock bands.
I fish a lot, too....

Danged if I want my son working in a chicken house or shoveling horse turds. My kid will own that ranch with all the chickens, cows and horses where your boys are shoveling all that manure.. I want more for my son. Hey! I’m joking…I don’t have a son. Polly does all the work around here when she is not laying around on her azz getting her beauty tan, but that’s ok, there’s nothing for her to do, cuz we have a helper that feeds the dogs. Now that the Sheriff has recovered her D-8 Cat she feels that she needs a massage every other day, I hired a massaue to come to the house and give her a full body rub-down. It’s ok, doesn’t cost anything, he does it free. You know what? I think I will get her off that tractor , buy her some chickens some horses and cows and put a shovel in her hands and let her know what a real work out is. Good day to all. The Carpman.. P/S Polly and I are Jet Laggers, That‘s what we do.. As of late we have managed to boat one nice size LM 7.76 lbs.

I teach Comparative Anatomy at the local women's college, St. Trixie's. In my spare time I provide private tutoring to those who show the greatest boo...er...potential.
During the summer, I dabble in graverobbing.

Haha!

Well in all seriousness I am a student who isnt allowed to get a job right now [and wouldnt have time anyways] as long as I'm playing football I can stay jobless. But in my earlier days, ehhh 13-14 years old I helped my cousins pull drip tape in watermelon fields, made some good summer money, but had to stop after awhile when I started getting sunburnt pretty bad. Now I go to practice twice a day and am exhausted.
