Another thread got me ta thinkin'...just what is everybody's trade? For a big "family", I haven't the foggiest what most of you do for a living.

Me, I co-manage a collision repair shop. Work the line as well when needed.

I'm the dangerous one...I know a little about alot of things but not a whole lot on any one thing. I was a machinst but those jobs are hard to come by so while I am off i started a small metal finishing service out of my garage. I do intakes, wheels, pullies, anything you want nice and shiny. I also without really trying started selling cars on consignment, did it for one friend then before I knew it everyone wanted me to sell there car. In the summer i teach advanced riding lessons on my horses, and I compete in paper chases and some bareback and bronc riding. when time allows I volunteer with the Border Collie rescue, mostly transports and overnight fostering.

I work for Eaton Global Hose, I'm responsible for all the H430 series hose that is sold at Napa, and many of the Aeroquip braided hoses are made on the line directly next to me. Jack Roush and Joe Gibbs were waiting on a shipment from us before the Daytona 500. Plus I'm thinking 'bout finishing up my business degree or get me a mechanical engineering degree.
