      service tech at a dealer here in Germany- really doesnt pay all that, but it supports the family. hustle side jobs and sell stuff to support my habit. when it gets really bad [I] go to the train station and give handy Js for extra cash.

                going to culinary school, and working part time as a butcher. i make $11/hour. it kinda sucks seeing as i made $600+ a week working construction before i started going to school and was well on my way to getting a raise. i hope this education thing pays out! lol
