1. Independent Silversmith and Gemologist (and part time at coffee roasting outfit)
2. My tiny oxy-acetylene torch, general tool-whoring, hitting metal with hammers, pretty gems, jewelry, the people I meet, fun chemicals, working in my pajamas. (Gorgeous 50 mile round trip to work on the bike three days a week, espresso)
3. No climate control at either job.

Same thing I do in my fake life, work when I have to, ride when I can...

Re: What do you do in your regular life?
I just gave notice today...two weeks left in the office. Going back into the field to make more money, work 14 days then off 7! More time to ride!!
What else is there in life...don't waste your life working, live while you can!
Later.

Re: What do you do in your regular life?
Great for you - do you have to fly in? I never used to take my holidays but accepted a change in role so I could. So far this year I have taken 5 weeks and 1 week to go! Life is too short to work all of the damned time!madjak30 wrote:I just gave notice today...two weeks left in the office. Going back into the field to make more money, work 14 days then off 7!

Re: What do you do in your regular life?
Yup, fly in...best of both worlds...I will actually get 6 1/2 days off, instead of losing two full days to travel...Not in Fort Crack, but close...just south of Anzac.
I used to buy one or two extra weeks of vacation time on top of the three weeks that I got, but this is way better! And I will make more money doing it, DOUBLE BONUS!!

Re: What do you do in your regular life?
I'm a truck driver nowadays. Or was. I quit my job after saving up for a year, and now all I do is spend my time riding around on my ninja. When I'm done I may go back to food service, trucking blows.
