alright, currently, i'm detailing/ attending the lot for the local subaru dealership. not much above minimum, but it's a small company, and i get tons of deals with warranty parts, cleaners, sit around waiting for work, drive around turbo cars and pop the bovs in the parking lot. only scrub part of it is trash/waste oil at the end of the day, but ----, 15 hours of overtime a week is worth the scrub job detail at the end.

before that, i was a salesman for nissan.
before that, carwash attendant.
before that, worked at subway for a month, got fired for talking to the managers hot daughter via text.
before that, short order cook.
before that..stock boy for local hardware store.
before that, ----, that was 7 years ago. worked summers on the local farm picking and washing

I recognize that name... I have to add your company as a loss payee to the trucks being added to one of my insurance policies since they're financing through you.

I build, repair, upgrade, and maintain OY71A(V2)-8/TPQ-36 FireFinder Radar systems for the Dept. of the Army. Right now I'm working on Sentinel upgrades for 26 of these radars that are being used in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Korea. Basically it entails stripping the entire radar down and overhauling and replacing as much as possible, rebuilding it with the new Sentinel targeting systems, testing and alignments,burn in, targeting tests, then PVT's with it's matching control shelter before it and I get shipped to it's destination where I have to set it up and run a live fire simulation before the unit takes control of the radar.
Can't beat the money for PA (grossed $68k last year, and I just took a promotion that landed a $6/hr raise over what I made before) and I get to travel all over the world on your tax dollars.
