I noticed alot of you guys are farmers, tradesmen, or... i dunno whatever else. I attend a vocational high school in massachusetts and im in a Carpentry/masonry field. We compete every year in a large.. LARGE organization called VICA.. vocational industrial clubs of america.. Last year, as a sophomore, and my first year in it. I placed first in school, first in regionals, and 6th in states against all seniors... i cant wait till this year because i more than likely will get gold in states and get to go to kansas city for a week for free

I work on Fiber Optic Communications on the Trans-Alaska Pipeline. 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off. Can't wait for my off shift to go sledding. (If we have enough snow by then.)

I'm a senior in high school. Since I live out of the district of my school, I ride my sled to school in the winter. We usually have 10-15 sleds every morning parked outside. When we get out, we get on and usually beat the bus-riders home.

I am currently going Post-Secondary at the U of M, Crookston. next year, beginning in the Fall of 2002, after I graduate, I will be going to the Northwest Technical College in Grand Forks, MN, for Construction Electricity...Anybody else on this forum have that job? Is it fun? I already know that it makes good money...

It's not fair to give only a tiny bit, weatherman, gotta have more now!

I am a screw off. That is what my wife wants to say. I still make more than her LOL. I own a company.

"Meaningless Ride"

I'm a retired porn star.
At 38 my heart can't take it anymore.
My wife also caught me in bed with five women, and put her foot down.
So now I travel around Maine, N.H. and Mass. repairing gas pumps, credit card machines and other service station equiptment.

Right now I'm in collge at Colorado State University and graduate in December with a B.S. in Civil Engineering. I work at a place doing earth imagery, looking at satellite pictures and 3-D earth models.(I'm probably looking at you right now).j/k. I'm not sure about this career thing though, it's just not my time. Lots of money would be nice though. I think I might buy a sailboat and sail all over the world come summer time.
