    Forest Ranger for my province and my 16 year old, 300k Tacoma has been very good to me! Next up 2023 Tacoma! My job has a lot of variety from trapping bears, harvesting wood, fighting forest fires (all over the world) and everything in between

    Thirty-three years in the classroom. Two phrases that should never be said in the same sentence: "sixty years of age and classroom teacher". Those were uttered 17 years ago when I retired at 59. As I've stated many times since, " I miss the kids, coaching (basketball, track, and cross country) ,and some of the adults, but grading papers-not at all". I would love to do it all again, but maybe not the way things seem to be now, and I would have to have a heck of a lot more stamina than I do currently.

    Haha, not a designer! I was an A&P mechanic, and flight test crew for five years, now I write work instructions and make sure design doesn’t mess things up. I’m the guy that tells design engineers whether technicians will hate them or not. Haha.

    I'm the 'ATF Compliance Officer' for a gun shop.

    It's a ton of paperwork and I have to deal with ATF agents regularly but I get sweet discounts on guns etc. so I like it.
