I work for the world's largest bearing manufacturer, the Timken Company.

So out of curiosity, what do the fellow R-Fer's do for a living?
 
I have 2 jobs, they are both very similar. I am a Home Health Aide (Job #1), I work with the elderly and in my second job I am a Provider (Job #2), I work with the developmentally disabled. I cook, clean, do laundry and I attend to their personal needs. I love both my jobs. :)

I started out as a technician fixing industrial equipment mostly in the US, it did get me working in some places around the world. I've been a technical writer for most of my career.
 
If you don't have enough gum for the whole room you can't have any either. Now put that gum on your nose and think about sharing..... Lol sound failure TRL?

I never had a problem with gum in my classroom. As the students were coming in for class, I'd have a small trash can in my hand --- they knew what to do. If I caught one with gum after class began, they would have to throw it away. Then sign the book I kept on class discipline. Parents who questioned the conduct grade could take a look at the book and see for themselves. Usually after the first reports were sent home, I had very little trouble --- especially with gum.

God bless you, that is sincerely good work.
You are an angel to those in need.
 
I work at an ISP and I also drive taxi some...

Taxi stories are the best.
 
I'm a registered nurse. Worked in the operating room for 35 years before retiring in 2009. Retirement is much better than getting up at 3:30am on a winter morning.:)
 
I'm currently a dock worker for A. Duie Pyle Inc (no the name is not a joke that was some guys name 90 years ago.) a trucking company based in West Chester Pa, serving the Northeast. Hopefully not my job for much longer though.
 
I'm a nurse. Computer technician and Navy before that. My wife is also a nurse but we have been thinking we should quit and start selling concessions at the nascar races.
Wouldn't that be grand? Travel to every race, sell a few hotdogs and go watch!
 
I have been a crew member and the race car hauler driver for drag racing teams for the past 18 years. It can be a lot of hard work, long hours, and a lot of time away from home...but you do get to meet a lot of very interesting people and i wouldn't want to do anything else.
 
A big name driver? When I was younger we used to have to stand by at a local drag strip with rescue squad lol we got to meet a lot of big named drivers not always under best circumstances though

If a harley is not vibrating then it isn't running is it? Do you remember whe Pulde subbed for Bazemore in the Smoking Joes f/c and won the race? That was funny.
 
He's really my buddy's friend. I met him a couple of times at my buddy's Christmas party. He built my buddy's HD motor. The guy that used to do my machine work died. I trust Dale's ability.
They showed me video of Dale driving Scelzi's car, riding a mini bike back to the pits and then driving, I believe, Whit's car. I think it was a Friday or something and they wanted Dale's opinion. ( I think he was real close on time with both cars. )
Dale can really drive.

He was one of the best drivers and tuners in his day.
