I can understand that. I still turn wrenches on the side. Seems like it was the only thing that ever put money in my pocket. Living the dream

Coal mining. Warehouse actually, I deal with Joy Mining Machinery and Cat(Cat bought Bucyrus around a year ago) mainly. It's a real love/hate relationship I've been there 4.5 years. Before that, I worked(managed) an auto parts store. The same one my dad owned and before 95' my grandma owned. Dad sold it in 06' and i went back after a year as head painter at a body shop. I grew up in parts, its sorta my passion. My dad has turned wrenches since he was a teen, and I just followed suite. Of course he's into the old stuff and I like the new but it comes with the generation I suppose.

New home cabinet/ trim carpenter for a company called betenbough homes. Been here since I was 16 only thing I know besides turning wrenches in my shop. Have been wanting to open up a shop for business since I get customers regularly for engine swaps or cam/ heads etc
