Good old IBM mainframe assembler programmer.
What do/did you do for a living?
With the increasingly high priced items people own and are selling, I'm curious about the line of work people do or have done. I thought my $5k integrated was a massive investment, but seeing users searching for $100k speakers or $75k SET amplifiers has me curious about the varying lines of work people do to afford these items.

Worked as a machinist, welder, bridge bolt maker, automotive mechanic, went to Collage to become a system analyst, minor in programming in computer's and the last 32 years at our water company as my final position as chief Superintendent of wastewater! I started with tube amps when I was a kid and now figure my system is around 30 to 40,000.00 in amps, speakers and such! Extremely happy with my system and always looking for better! |
erik_squires I bring madness to the chaos. I know it sounds easy, but let me tell you, it’s a lot of detail work to pull it off day after day. If you have the passion it is easy to get started, but takes a lifetime to master. The thread is 'What do you do for a living?' This seems incoherent, not to mention having to do nothing with the thread. Perhaps you could start a thread of your own. |
I was in the moving and storage business in sales and marketing with the last 8 years getting paid on commission only. I would say that 75% of the "mover stories" you hear are created by the customer from either under estimating or shopping for a low price. For the last 5 years, I've been doing a lot of traveling in my Airstream and spending too much time and money on my photography obsession/business. I could have bought a Lamborghini for what I paid for 3 bags of German and Swiss cameras and lenses. Shooting medium format, I can make wall sized prints. And now most people look at photographs on a tiny screen. How sad. Instagram @coasttocoastphotoatl. |
