SERAC/SEO (ret.)
~but I'll list this anyhow since I did it for 6 1/2 years:
Sub Contractor/Custodian
Independent Contractor/Land Scaping/Lawn Care.
...the above are all I have time for. Basically jobs where I
don't have to work with anyone else, show up, do the job
and get paid. No Bullshit, no work place politics. Just how I
like it. Work four days and off three. As a family man and
my daughter being so attached to me at this point, my real
job is keeping her out of my wife's hair so she can tend to
our 9 month old son. The money is better than I thought it
be though.
I'm toying with the idea however of procuring my Level Four
"Personal Protection Officer" certification and doing bodyguard
work at a local and regional level, but I'll never work in the SERAC
/SEO field again due to all the fuckheads that have ruined that end
of the business.
I'd consider being a bouncer again, but
the places would have to pay at least $13.50 an hour before I'd
consider it and guarantee at least six hour shifts. Most places only
want to pay guys like $9.00 or lower for that shit, FUCK THAT!
...so nope, no glory story here.

That's what I want. Something where you clock in, do the time, and that's it. Nothing that follows you home and torments your personal life.
My brother has a job like that climbing telephone poles and checking the lines... I envy him. I'm definitely more of a "work to live", not "live to work" type.

Reminds me of when I worked at UPS. Man that was a great job, too bad it didn't pay more.
I'm definitely the "work to live" type too. Currently, I work in medical transportation driving non-emergent patients to the hospital.

Service manager for an ATM/ Banking Equipment service & reseller. I usually dispatch and process invoices but recently due to another manger breaking his femur, my work load just doubled.

Bobak is a total fey.....
He has to weigh feng shui against images out of Better Homes and Gardens.
Just setting up his living room can take weeks.

My girlfriend does that now.
Bless you because I know I can't handle that job. A few years ago, she got knocked out trying to restrain a client who was upset.
I work at Costco.

Former middle school band director that's fighting to get back into the hell that is public education, but I like how students are inspired and motivated through the fine arts.
