I was in the Royal Air Force for 15 years as an Airframe Engineer, working on Helicopters and Fighter Jets.
now I'm an Offshore Engineer for a company surveying for Oil.

For over 30 years I have worked for the same bank, which has not thought to fire me, yet. I have a couple of bachelor's degrees and a post-graduate thingy. I'm also a licensed CPA, but do not practice...except on the bagpipes.

How do we know you exist?

I am a Signal NCO in the US Army stationed at Fort Riley Kansas and will retire in one year and eight months. I work in automation computer support and networking mostly, I have my bachelor and masters degree in criminal justice, and I plan to pursue a second career in law enforcement.

Secondary Special Education teacher is what I get paid todo, Parks and public spaces advocate is what I love to do.

I am currently a Army Foreign Area Officer, but I will always be an Paratrooper and Infantryman at heart.

I am a poet and songwriter...however, I take on all sorts of odd jobs and the occasional part-time job in order to support my fledgling career (I had no choice in becoming a poet or a songwriter, it kind of chose me. So I follow my Muse wherever it takes me). But, it helps a lot that I also happen to be a "jack of all trades."

I was a nurse the last time this meme went around. Perhaps surprisingly, I'm still a nurse. Currently, I work in a family clinic.

Is your family large enough or sick enough for it to have its own clinic. My family only qualifies for a couple of rooms at the local mental heath clinic.

I am a consultant surgeon, specialising in keyhole surgery and....., sorry that's a lie. How can I hide the fact that I do a bit of gun running, money laundering, extortion. . ...
Oh behave, I was just trying to be as interesting as you guys. Spent 28 years in the hotel business, set up a cellphone shop for 4 years, went bust now work in a photo lab for a well known high street retailer. See, honesty is the best policy. Forgot to mention I used to sell smokeless fuel to Indians who weren't talking to each other!
