I might have met you

Unless you had surgery at Stanford Univ. Medical Center, then probably not... :)

I used to live in Palo Alto. Now NY. Small world. Welcome to Net 54! :)

Thanks, Paul. Small world, indeed!

Great thread!

I do a few things:

I'm the music teacher at one of the toughest elementary schools in the state of FL, with 99-100% free lunch, and an extremely high-percentage of highly at-risk youth. I wouldn't prefer to teach anywhere else, however, as I tend to be drawn towards areas that require more problem solving.

I'm also the music director at my church, leading contemporary worship and also co-directing the choir.

I also started getting involved in this hobby a couple years ago on the remaining "side" I had left, and I've loved every minute of it.

Here is a link to some videos of me singing some things, since I don't really know what else to put. I've recently kind of decided, perhaps a long time coming, that I may start pursuing music more than I have. Though I love competition, I couldn't care less about fame, which has kept me from seeking it in the past...

Alright! Thanks for a venue for us to talk about ourselves, and it be ok!

A life-long dream I have is to sing the national anthem at Wrigley Field. So, if anyone can help with that --- I'd be eternally grateful :D

I'm sitting here in Seattle in my daughters hospital room. She is 20 and two days ago underwent a total knee replacement. I am amazed at the compassion and care she has received from the nurses. My mother was an RN in a psychiatric hospital. My hats off to you and all of your peers you do amazing work. Enjoy your vacation you certainly deserve it.

By the way I supervise social workers for the state of Washington.

I thought I would bring this up again, for the new members who might not have seen this topic before. :)

Thanks for the bump and reminder to update my "other LinkedIn page" :) As of last August, I'm working for a small but rapidly growing city south of Nashville doing site plan review for new developments, and dealing in collectibles is back to "on the side" status.

Hs teacher. History and economics.

What I do to support my T206 Addiction.
 

I have owned a real estate appraisal business in the Houston, Texas area for 23 years. As I've aged gracefully, I transitioned into a full time Realtor which has been very fulfilling.

Commercial real estate/property management.
I manage and lease high rise office buildings.

Glad to see things are picking up for you.

I didn't remember seeing this when it was new . Anyway I was a Police Officer and EMT now full time EBay seller .

Design director for one of the largest ad agencies in the world. Do mostly packaging designs for Fortune 100 companies.

I really never knew what I was doing when I was doing it...

...and I am so glad to not be doing whatever it was any more.


Retirement is a good fit for me...just wish I was healthier so I could really enjoy it.

For all of you that served our country, my sincere thanks and appreciation!

Nobody here that sets up or coordinates group orgy's or stripper parties.

Nah, those guys only collect modern... ;)

I set up and coordinate group orgys and stripper parties.

Close
 

Close. But not quite. I managed bars on campus and 6th street. Now full time student.

I work in a very highly regarded field, car sales. Internet sales department, which at least gives me time to check out net54 while at work.

Planner/Engineer for a major communications company.
Been here since graduating high school, around 23 years now.

Absolutely hate my job and would love to do anything else, but nothing I can find where I start out making what I make now.
Would LOvE to have a job where I travel a LOT. Like live out of a suitcase!

I finished a PhD studying monkeys in the Amazon and am now the director of a community conservation organization that focuses on birds, conservation, and education (Bird City Wisconsin) and the chief scientist for the Western Great Lakes Bird and Bat Observatory.

Bryan- we have tons of Mexican Freetail bats in Austin.

I mete and dole unequal laws unto a savage race.:)

Same problem here. Very hard to replace the income starting in a new field. I'm not necessarily looking to live out of a suitcase but wouldn't mind some travel.

I worked as a union electrician in NYC Local 3 IBEW for 34 years. Now retired living in NC

I'm a criminal-defense attorney. And, occasionally, an innocent-defense attorney.

I am a New Jersey Professional Land Surveyor for 25 years, 33 years total experience. Doing the same in North Carolina after the move.When in New Jersey,it was nice when I found the original stones of the King's Grant for a Boundary Survey and the original control for the Delaware Raritan Canal. Also did the steel layout for Terminal "C" at Newark Airport.

Hey Matt, I lived in Austin 33 years ago. I loved 6th Street. :D

Is Madison Square Garden still around?

Just graduated high school. Heading to the University of Vermont as I pursue a degree in civil/environmental engineering. Can't wait!

I can't
 

remember if I posted here in this thread:o:D and I'm too lazy to look back:o

I'm a Food Service Director in nursing homes in New Jersey..:)

I'm guessing it went the way of Armadillo World Headquarters and the such. The winds of change have been blowing here and are now at hurricane velocity.

I'm a copywriter for an ad agency in NYC. I convince people to buy stuff they don't need. Yeah capitalism!...Happy 4th of July!

I'm a project engineer for a large communications company that makes ground and space communications systems for the military.

Nothing anymore.

My former employer, Pearson Education, decided unilaterally last year that my 40+ years of experience meant less to them than hiring two other guys to replace me (at higher salaries, I'm sure). All potential employers now look at my resume and think "too old" or "too expensive" or both. I might agree with one of those assertions. :D

So, bottom line, I guess I am now retired.

Kevin!
 

I'm so sorry to hear that! I went through a similar situation last year

IT SUCKS!!

I'm sure they will be kicking themselves in the ass:D

Surprises, me, I thought Pearson was taking over the educational world and had more money than they knew what to do with!

Being that I can't make a living playing golf, I am a Union Electrician, IBEW Local 275 in West Michigan.

Fly for free...
 

I posted on the first page a few years ago, as an Air Force pilot. Now I fly for Delta Air Lines out of Atlanta, although I commute from Denver. Could be one of the longest commutes to/from work on the board!

Take Care,

I'm a database admin for engine part removals. I decide weather the return on the engine part was actually warrented or not. I also prepare a montly presentation for these returns representing each Engines MTBF and MTBUR for an excutive review with Pratt & Whitney Canada.

Among that I help out component owners getting documents and files organized and charts up and running for UTC's suppliers (BOEING).

Well, after 15 years as an Active Duty Soldier, I decided to change course and convert over as a Reservist. While I'm not drilling on weekends, I am a Human Resources Generalist who happens to assist Soldiers with ensuring their personnel records are as accurate and updated as possible for the sole purpose of their career progression and promotion potential. Either way, I am smothered by Soldiers which is something I see myself doing for a while as long as I am able to do so.:)

Yes I do. Here is my card. I also grow produce and sell it in a stand in front of my 40'X76' greenhouse.
