What is your Job?

[TheLuthier]

Hello everybody!

I tried to use the research functionality in this case, but I haven't found a topic about that. Please, tell me if this thread already exist:

What is your job? Is it related to the food-domain, craftsmanship, or something else?

Have a great week-end, cheers from Quebec!

Ben

Thank you Tostadas! Is there any way to flag this thread, and let the admins delete it?

 

[daveb]

Nah,. If we deleted every thread that was a repeat, there would only be three left...

New thread, new people, new responses.

BTW, I'm also a babysitter by day, caterer extrodianaire by night.

 

[TheLuthier]

Hey Daveb, thanks! I tried to be careful and I was very surprised I didn't found this kind of thread, I probably missed it because I needed my morning-coffee... Lesson learned

I am an expert on making sharp knives dull and vice versa.

 

[WildBoar]

I like to think I'm an engineer but my 9 year old claims my main job is being controlling and unfair.

Knifemaker now, but I was an underground hardrock miner.

Dude, by any chance did you used to work in the Judas Priest or AC/DC mines?

 

[mpier]

I am a commercial construction Superintendent, and a avid fisherman.

You call AC/DC hard?

 

[HumbleHomeCook]

You call AC/DC hard?

No, but I was going for broad name recognition.

Good. I was worried being management was starting to take its toll

You didn't like mainstream hardrock before you became an adult?

*siiiiiiiigh* As much as I hate dad jokes, I think there's actually some truth to that.

Pharmacist. In a grocery store. In the worst part of town. It’s fun, there’s no doubt about that.

 

[Naftoor]

Engineer, while being paid to learn to become a code monkey as part of it. Slowly working on a book as well, slowly because focusing is not my strong suite. I prefer steel to software also

 

[OyakoDont]

I research cellulose fibers for absorbent hygiene products. Shout out to anyone who has kids, has incontinence problems, or menstruates.

Now that is an occupation you hear about every day. Unsung hero!

Sounds like you should have picked structural engineering

Me too, but after locuming in retail during my PhD and doing preregistration training in hospital, decided to jump ship and stayed in basic research. Never looked back, allowing me to travel and work around the world.

I did some hydrogel prototype testing for this back in high school! Sadly the chemical engineering department at the university didn’t want the research done by minors, even if it was in their own labs.

Smart man. Freedom from the 9-5 is an amazing thing. Retail pharmacy is its own breed of customer service insanity too, at the best of times.

Went into materials, which I don’t regret in that you learn so much, about so much which was awesome.

But yeah if I were to redo it I may have gone into mechanical engineering for the broader field of options

 

[Heckel7302]

I do artistic planning for a major symphony orchestra.

@stringer
your youtube channel is awesome

 

[Runner_up]

I make dull things, Sharp.

Mostly kitchen knives, but all sorts of tools and blades.

The MEs I went to school with all wound up in the computer field, so your outcome may not have been any different

Did you get your ESM degree on the East Coast? I got a minor in it to go with my Civil but I definitely did not have the stomach to go any further. I remember crack propagation having some of the longest formulas I had to deal with in college. I think it was second to some deep pile formulas, but not by much.

your youtube channel is awesome and you forgot to say that you are very helpful

But @r0bz, what is your job?
