    I've worked in the electrical and electronics fields since 1974. After six years as a Navy ET I taught Electronics Technology at post secondary and proprietary levels in AAS degree programs. After that it was back into pushing trons for 25 more years. Almost 3 years ago I became an Electrical Inspector for the city of Texas City.

    I hunt, fish, golf, play guitar and enjoy my two lovely granddaughters.

    Hi All,

    I am an AVP and Manager at a Premium Finance Company. Basically we give loans to businesses to pay for their insurance policies. Our loans range from small business loans of $500 to large corporation loans of $10 million. It is really a nitch business that many would have never heard of or thought of. 14 years ago when I started here, I had no clue such a business existed.

    I'm also an IT guy. I've been in IT for the last 29 years. Started out on a helpdesk, then a senior network engineer. Current job is a senior IT project manager specializing in infrastructure and disaster recovery projects. Hobbies include church work, RV camping, music, swimming and of course fresh water aquariums. Love those discus...

    I have two kids ages 8 and 12 that also keep me busy.

    I'm a heavy truck mechanic. It's tough, filthy work, but pays the bills pretty well!

    I'm a Branch Sales Manager and Home Mortgage Consultant for Wells Fargo Home Mortgage. Have been in this business and related for 20+ years. Seen it all! Happy to say I never got involved in any of that sub-prime/negative amortizing "stated" income garbage. Still here and still happy.

    Odd...I thought I replied to this thread...Nice to see some insight on the people here

    Name's Aaron. I'm a teacher and photographer here in Victoria, British Columbia. When I was younger all I wanted to do was be an actor. Got a double major in Drama/Communication Studies from the University of Windsor. Afterwards, got into behind the scenes stuff and got a film diploma from Sheridan. After working in Vancouver's film industry for 3 years, I moved to Victoria, got my B.Ed and am now teaching drama and visual art.

    I still own a growing photo business, but every time I have moved (which has been a lot), I lose my clientele. If you're interested, you can check out my portfolio at rhymes with orange photography.

    I think if I could do it all again, I'd get into marine biology. This hobby has really opened my eyes to a lot of things. I've learned so much about water chemistry, biology, habitats, etc. that I never otherwise would have experienced.

    Cheers!
    -Aaron

    I stopped pursuing a degree in criminal justice almost 3 years ago to become a stay at home mommy.
    I have 2 girls ages 1 & 3.

    I write software for a living, love it and been doing it since 1981. I work for a large defense contractor so mainly write software to support simulation and training systems for the Army and Navy. Currently I'm writing system software for a first generation ATE system.

    I'm a tomboy at heart and love to fish, dive and use to hunt with my dad. I'm currently into horses, reef tanks and soon discus. I have had both fresh and saltwater aquariums off and on since I was a kid. I have one daughter who graduated in May with an engineering degree and she just started her first professional job today. Proud of her. Someday I hope she will make me a grandma.
