Ben brought up a good question when he asked me what it is that I do for a living. I started to think about it and I have no idea what anyone does here for a living whether or not they are happy doing what they do if they would rather do something else I don't know. So at any rate I know headzilla is a partying college guy, what do you do when your not in school? Buckey I know you're gay with taco but where do you get your money to buy your boyfriend stuff[:p] sorry guys just razzin ya.

    I live on the southern end of Oolagah lake . The Will Rogers centennial horse back trails are out my back door. Lots of deer and turkeys .The turkeys are smarter than me though. The deer are not .I've taken 19 off that land .If you want I would be happy to take you out there . My e-mail is open in this forum to work out any details.[:o)]http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/wildokie1/album?.dir=43a1quote:Originally posted by EhlerDave
    Well shucks I pass thruogh Claremore going to see the inlaws, they live in Chouteau I think I spelled that wrong it is little place near Pryor. I myself live in the town of Burbank, population 148 we are real close to Kaw lake. I try to hunt but have had some serious problems getting chair in and out. I need to make a set of mud and snow chains for my wheelchair. Last year I went and scouted a nice place a guy like me could get to and the day before deer season opened ricky ranger went and locked the gate and strung cable so I could not drive around it, if ya knew me you would know my reaction to such a thing. Not pleasant. I now have a letter from the chief of law enforcement for wildlife that says it is ok for me to operate my electric wheelchair on public hunting lands. All I do is let the local warden know where I will be so if I get reported he knows who it is.

    I am writing this from my iron bar home. I am a prisoner, serving a life sentance for a triple homicide. That dang hot CSI chick busted me, but it was cool because she is hot. [:o)]

    Okay, I work for a manufacturing company. We have several locations/departments, we make industrial scales like semi truck scales along the road or small 8"x8" bench top scales for weighing chemicals or whatever. Also make air ride suspensions for light trailers, 70% go to Oklahoma for horse trailers and the rest are used for car trailers. Even got some of our units on Busch trailers in nascar, Mark Martin has some on his personal trailers to and the orange county choppers dudes have some to. [:D] We build hydraulic carts for the weighing industry also, just dabble ina bit of everything really. I don't really know my title, I do anything that needs done, I'll weld, buy parts, sell products, visit customers, go on service calls, empty the trash, make midnight visits when the alarm goes off, anything really. [:D]
    Like my job? Does anyone? It has it's ups/downs just like anything, but they treat me pretty fair.

    I work for a pharmaceutical manufacturer that makes sterile parenterals or injectables using their microsphere time release technology. I work in Quality Assurance Validation as a Senior Validation Specialist validating/qualifying equipment, utilities, processes, etc.
    It's a very satisfying job as I am working for mankind helping to improve someone's quality of life...maybe even save it. Most folks have no idea what goes into manufacturing pharmaceuticals.

    Very funny Sus' [:D][:D]...now quit fantasizing again and get your hand out of your pants! [:D][;)][:D]

    HZ, I'm assuming they're leather soled? There isn't hardly a damn thing that you can do besides keep them dry.

    Well, I'd soak them in a baking soda solution, if that doesn't work, try a bleach solution.

    I am a refrigerant reclaimer. I like my job to a point but don't like everyone I work with like many do. I am pretty much my own boss (to a point) and do mostly my own thing. I am looking for a part time gig cause I'm not traveling as much and didn't make as much cake this last year.[B)][B)][xx(]

    My Dad is also a retired Postmaster for the USPS! Never shot or was shot at, so I guess that makes him some kind of "big Hahuna". Kinda rare in the USPS![:D]
