    I'm a fabricator/maintenance guy for a company that armors civilian vehicles. Yes, that S600 next to you at the stop light, may be armored. Mostly we do cash transportation vehicles.

    Current fun project is a Toyota Sequoia with smoke screen, drop spikes, and shocking door handles. The handles are rated at 80,000 volts, we had a mishap in the shop and had to take a co-worker to the medical center to get checked out.

    Pay isn't bad for my region, but a baby that is due within the next week has haulted all car funds. Totally worth it though! :p

      I'm a student, currently looking for a job over the school year to have some sort of income coming in.

      Worked at a financial firm over the summer and that's where I got alot of my money to help last me through the year.

        I work at a Toro dealership, as a mechanic/set up technician, i work on golf course lawn equipment, i get to work on the White Sox, Bears, and the Cubs equipment which is cool, benefits are good, make decent money but alot goes to bills so not much moneys for the e30, Chicago is much more expensive to live in then St Louis, which sucks!

          I move tons of meat a week for my clients to stuff into their mouths. Some are just happy with nomal quantities, but others are only sedated with double the meat. 8"-16", it depends on the insatiable hunger for sausage, beef, what have you. Some just pile a handful of limp noodle into their gullet. Oddly there is a market for the hot loose beef sandwich, saturated with salty gravy.



          Any way you descipher it, I'm a meat peddler. It pays the bills.

          Every day I wake up we drink a lot of coffee and watch the CNN
          Every day I wake up to a bowl of clover honey and let the locusts fly in.
          Lobsterbacks attack the town again
          Wrap all my things in aluminum
          Beams of darkness streak across the sky
          Pink rays from the ancient satellite
          Every time I look out my window same three dogs looking back at me.
          Every time I open my windows cranes fly in to terrorize me.

                I alternate working for the city of Newport Beach. In the summer I work as a swim instructor, and in the fall/winter/spring, I work as pretty much a custodian at the Newport Coast Community Center. I just set up a bunch of chairs and tables for an hour, and the other 4 hours I get to sit at a computer and do whatever I want "facebook/e30 forums/homework/etc."

                        Been in sales for 2 1/2 years. Both parts sales and car sales. Still doing small-scale part sales to a select dozen customers though the contacts I have left over from KO.

                        I went back to school to finish my bachelors in Marketing, and have started to bartend since I can only work in afternoon/evenings.

                          omg dude my dad has a tofu business and he needs a delivery boy! Do you feel like relocating? Just want to make sure you spent the proper amount of time tuning your car, did you spend a month tuning the suspension like you should have?
