The ONSC "What I do for a Living" thread

[nesnaitsirhc]

How about this for a first post!

I manage a small tile distributor in Raleigh. In my spare time I help out my mother's business selling items to the dollar stores. In my spare...spare time I am a full time student at Mt Olive College.

Before all that I was in the Marine Corps in a Cobra Huey squadron on New River. Pedro, I'm sure our paths have crossed a time or two. Thanks for what you do.

BTW I just picked up an 08 SS FJ. I've just been lurking until now.

I am a chemistry teacher at Enloe High School. You may have heard about us in the news on occasion. I'll be more prone to be on here in the spring and summer when things start to calm down for me. I've been 'lurking' since the summer.

 

[DirtNOOB]

Engineering manager at a display company. We build the specialty stuff out of sheet metal, tube, wire, wood, whatever...

Need some light metal work, fab or powder coating? Let's talk!

I do freelance engineering / design work as well, and freelance IT work to pay for my expensive hobbies and my family activities, LOL

If you do any work in Holly Springs, you probably know my wife. She's the town's Environmental Specialist...

I am pretty new, so I don't know anybody.....yet. My boss seems to know everyone, though. So (needless plug), if Holly Springs needs any services we would be happy to oblige.

[Trapper]

I am currently a third year pathology resident at Duke Medical Center. I'm mainly interested in general surgical pathology with an emphasis in GI pathology and cytopathology. Right after med school, I trained for a couple of years in general surgery prior to returning to my roots in pathology. Best decision I have ever made. Maybe one day I will finish residency/fellowship and get a real job .

Not us. I wish we had a fleet of FJCs. We have a fleet of nothing. For whom do you work? I work for Ward Consulting Engineers. We are VERY small, only 4 of us, 2 engineers, me and the boss. She has been around for a while and seems to know everybody in our line of work.

I'm a Cryptologic Technician First Class (CTR1(SW)/E6) in the Navy. Been stationed in DC at the Office of Naval Intelligence and aboard the USS Mustin (DDG 89) out of San Diego before finding Greensboro. No, there is no ship here in Gbro, I train a group of reserve sailors in support of the ongoing war on terror. I just finished my BS at UNCG and am working on my masters to leave active duty and become an accountant here in Greensboro. This is why I've had a cruiser for 3 years and you've never seen me!

 

[krzyabncanuck]

Worked with a bunch of Navy boys in my time in.

Unless you are retireing right now i would really think hard about getting out right now. I retired a few years ago, but would not be doing it now in these times.

And as a vet and a PGR member, thanks for your service to this great country.

Fortunately, for me, I'm out in Apsen skiing with my wife and daughter. The pilots were based in Anchorage and didn't know either of them. I have flown the plane numerous times though.

Thanks for checking on me. Keep their families in your thoughts.

 

[GarnerFJ40]

Good to know! Enjoy your skiing!
