What you do for a living (work, job)?

Cardiovascular tech. I help cardiologists out with patients having heart attacks, getting pacemakers, coronary artery disease, etc.

 

Pharmacist in SoCal for 20 years now …

 

Registered nurse here. After covid I decided to take the plunge of going back to anesthesia school. So currently a SRNA (student registered nurse anesthetist) about halfway through the program! Pausing life and accruing this much debt wasn’t in the cards at 32 but here I am

 

Become a traveling CRNA. Make bank. We have two here, I work PACU, they are just making bank right now.

 

Helped reprogram all the radios in ELP Sector to digital back in 2012(?), spent two 6 weeks trips there.

 

yea I heard it’s crazy right now. I hope the market is like this when I graduate! I still have a year and a half left

 

AutoCAD/Inventor software mechanical drafting, design & detailing for 20 years. It’s been a tough grind, pay, benefits and time off has all been mediocre. I finally got a job that pays well last year and it’s going good so far. I design and create sunroom drawings, this has been my first non mechanical job, I’m learning architectural now. So far so good. I’m at the point now in my life (turn 40 next month) I’m so sick of the daily commute, traffic and just the general slaving away every day just to make a living. I wish we all would get more time off to actually enjoy life more and relax.

 

I’m joining Honeywell in their “Connected Enterprise” area in a couple of weeks!

 

Good luck to you my friend!!

 

Can't find the post but there was someone on the Forum looking for workers for jobs in Arizona.

 

OK,

Now you did it... I'm homesick

Born and raised in Dova'

Miss those views but not that White Stuff on the ground

 

Also @Black Wolf in CO I believe. If relocating is an option.

 

Semi-retired "steering wheel holder "

Still in the "Game" enjoying part-time with my Wife's Artist Gig....She pays for everything

IF November does not "create a $hit show" she will retire in either December or January from her full time Job and we can both enjoy the freedom of Total self-employment

 

I always wondered, is there border patrol at the northern border????

 

Technically yes. But most of them are doing rotations down south to help them remember how to process and boost their immune systems.

 

Yes. Canadians don't want us going up there and using our freedom units.

 

Self employed working from the comfort of my Mountain home in the woods on five acres. Life is good not working for the man.

 

Mostly on the Canadian side.... Although seemed like there was more of a presence coming out of Niagra into New York than there was when we came through on the 5 into and out of Vancover (again stronger presence on the Canadian side of the tracks)!

 

I guess riff raff always goes north lol

 

Quite the opposite when I did surveying on the border. Did it for 3 months between Quebec and New York/Maine and about 5 out of 7 days we'd get a US Border Patrol come racing to us (could hear them from miles away) but only 1 in 7 would we see the CBSA.

 

Yes. contraband typically runs through some of the 7 nations land as they have land on both sides of the border. Agents will play the long game and wait til it leaves the rezzy’s if they’re able to track it. Plenty of things slip through. Not easy country up here for the most part. Then there’s weather.

 

Was gonna answer but yeah pretty much what everyone said already. I used to care about being secretive about what I do but eh I’m sick of no coverage of what’s happening on the news. Shits crazy, I’m in faaar West Texas now but was in South Texas before and that was chaotic too.

 

Hope you all are safe out there that work Border Patrol and just know many of us thank you for what you do on a daily basis!!

 

It's crazy down there, dunno how you guys do it. Thanks for your service!

 

When the rides were better.

 

Retired Fire Dept. Battalion Chief

 

I'm a stay at home son
