25, married with no kids yet, unless I count? Double majored at East Carolina Universtiy in Economics and Construction Management (C/O '00). Now I'm a logistics coordinator for the trucking and railroad industries. I also spend every weekend in the summer traveling back to NC to help my family on the farm where I was born and raised. Basically I work all the damn time now, but I enjoy playing with trains and tractors!

24, single, no kids, living with my girl and a couple of friends/roomates in a nice house in Kemah. I'm the operations manager/safety director for a commericial concrete company in Houston. I work about 60-70 hours a week, and when I'm not working, I'm drinking or working on the truck. My job is way to stressful and I plan on starting my own company soon.

If you read my first post just above your's it says what I do. If you don't feel like looking, I'm a CNC programmer/operator.

I'm 36, and am a co-founder of a small recruiting firm (retained not contingency) that we founded in 1997 after our prior employer went into bankruptcy. There are three partners and we have four employees.

We mostly cover power, project finance, renewable energy, and engineering/ construction.

Bizz has been slow so I have not been making what I used to make a few years ago, but we get by.

LS1Tech is a parttime job and a fulltime love.

27, not married yet but the longtime GF's clock must be ticking because that's all she talks about lately. Been working at a weekly ranch newspaper for about 8 years now. It is about the most monotonous job in the world, but my boss is cool, and it's alot better than shoveling ****. Mainly work with advertising & develop some film in the dark room. We have our own printing press and do everything in-house. Usually work 44 hours a week, about 30 of that is spent surfing on the net. Also, my dad & brother farm, so I help them out whenever they need an extra hand.
I need to get a side-job to help save money for a house, but can't decide if I want to go back to college or just sell everything I have and completely start over.

I'm an industrial maintenance tech for Bridgestone Metalpha. We make the steel cord that is used to make the steel belts at the tire plants. I pretty much do everything from changing light bulbs to repairing very expensive robots when they crash or for some reason lose their programming and just stop in their tracks.
