So I looked around the forum and did not see this topic: What Do You Do For a Career?


I am not wanting to know pay. I just see some of the work people do on here and it is amazing.

I sit at a desk all night and watch Youtube videos. Sometimes the world goes to hell and then I have to answer phone calls from other guys who would much rather be sitting at their desk watching Youtube videos than calling me to find out why the hell the world went to hell and when in hell they can expect me to un-hell it.

I'm a maintenance mechanic in a local cheese factory. To make that sound less dumb one of our production lines typically exceeds 200,000 pounds of packaged cheese out the door in one eight hour shift I maintain and troubleshoot a lot of the equipment throughout the plant. I've been here about twelve years now and really enjoy what I do for the most part--beats a real job anyway lol.


As you can see here my assistant is assisting me in not sliding off of the electric motor while I loosen a bolt. Gotta love team work.
