Electrician Apprentice. Just started my 4th year.

Currently working on my AA for water/wastewater treatment and will be looking to obtain a BS in management.

Being an Electrician has been Great! it has allowed me to make moves in life that I wasnt able to before due to financial constraints. But this is not where I want to be for the rest of my life due to the tremendous amounts of traveling (added cost of fuel which is forever rising)and the variance in pay from county to county not to mention work is hit or miss sometimes.

Before this I worked as a assistant manager at a major auto parts chain and worked part time as an ASE certified mechanic fixing Mercedes Benz's. did that for about 9 years.

Cool, you forman at Carter GM?? I think almost all of my highschool buddies worked there back in the day.

Myself, I am a one man show. Own/operate/manage etc a Retail Furniture store in Burnaby, BC, Canada: www.furnitura.ca have been doing this for almost 10 years. My father was an owner of a local sofa manufacturing plant so I've known sofa construction since I was a small kid. Retail has it's ups and downs. Ups: rewards and profits of owning your own business downs: tons of time invested and you are customer driven so the slow economy has really effected my industry alot in the last few years.

2nd job is I also am a property manager, mainly commercial/warehouse space. Property is my investing 102.

3rd job, help raise my twin daughters and have a 3rd en route.

As you can see I'm an extremely busy guy wish I had time to attend events..

I'm a Mechanical Engineer at a mountain bike company. A job I love but also spans outside the 8hrs a day with all the fun biking, so kindof impedes on car work haha.

I own an Orthpeadic Distribution company, we sell joint replacements to Surgeons and Hospitals. Hips, knees, shoulders......

Former military, former LEO, now full time helicopter flight school student. Just finished my instrument rating, commercial rating next, followed by instructor and instrument instructor rating . With any luck, I will be instructing flight students for pay in 8 or 9 months. Flying is absolutely a blast, but I do miss law enforcement. Considering going reserve with my local PD to keep my foot in it.
