makkusu92 06.12.19	I use to be a nondestructive inspector in the air force. Basically I verified cracks on air planes, oil pipes, roller coasters, train tracks, etc, using a variety of inspection methods. Shooting x-rays through metal and reading the film, fluorescent penetrant (watching paint dry), magnetic particles (magnets), ultrasonic inspection transducers (the machine they use on pregnant women), eddy current, and oil analysis. It's a great career if you're single and love to travel to other countries. Some of my ndt buddies got out and they now work for big companies like space x, boeing, lockheed martin, etc. You do a lot of traveling around the world and the pay is great, you don't even need a college level degree for this career and you'll make just as much money as some of the engineers you work with. This career is very obscure, so not many people know about it. Helps if you were prior ndt in the military. Me now, I retired at 25. Retirement sure is boring but I like it.
StrikeOfTheBeast 06.12.19	9-5 job being Targets' guests' bitch and answering retarded questions. Also stocking shelves and mechanical stuff.

Ambrosian 06.12.19	I dig ditches
makkusu92 06.12.19	@neekafat I got permanently injured while in the military that pretty much forced me into retirement. I could literally die if I continue to work, stress myself out, lift anything heavier than 10 Ibs, get punched in the chest, etc. I'm pretty much housebound for the remainder of my life. My main aorta could explode and it's night night forever, so I gotta take things easy.
Ambrosian 06.12.19	makkusu92 how'd you do it?
Ambrosian 06.12.19	oh holy shit
makkusu92 06.12.19	I was a homebody anyway so lul.
Ambrosian 06.12.19	You get some kind of compensation? Cause that's awful dude
makkusu92 06.12.19	@Ambrosian I use to be able to jog for up to 30 minutes straight, but when I started having trouble breathing while running around 2016 I couldn't jog for more then 5 minutes. So I decided to get checked up on and found out I had a thoracic aortic aneurysm. The VA first thought it was genetics, I got out and moved to Houston. I actually got the genetic testing done at the Houston VA and they told me there's no way it was genetics. I told them I had never had any heart problems or breathing trouble before so they had to give me 100% + housebound disability, also the air force changed my disability rating from 60% TDRL for depression to 100% PDRL for my thoracic aortic aneurysm disability. I never took any leave/ vacation time off and I was a work horse. I just burned myself out I guess.
makkusu92 06.12.19	It kind of sucks finding that out that you may have been born with a heart problem, for a while I started to blame my parents. It's a good thing I actually got tested though and I told them they didn't pass it on to their child. I was in a very dark place for a while, that first year was rough man.
rabidfish 06.12.19	bruh, how do you work yourself to almost death before even reaching 30. crazy.
JayEnder 06.12.19	Damnnn maku what a crazy story. That’s actually fucking tragic dude. I wish you the best, just take it easy my guy.
makkusu92 06.13.19	My Dad passed away in 2017 during Thanksgiving week and I got kidney stones for Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas to me. 2017 truly was the worst year of my life. Now I'm just trying to save up money to buy my mom a home to live in. It's all I can do really, I wanted to take care of my Dad but that dream is gone now.
makkusu92 06.13.19	@JayEnder thanks man I do appreciate it.
makkusu92 06.13.19	@rabidfish I should've took more vacation time off, constantly working myself to death, yeah that was a mistake. That's life though. Live and learn.
trilo 06.13.19	student but software engineer internship starts next week. i'm sure i'll still be on here a ton
Ambrosian 06.13.19	You're a tough dude Makku, I'd probably go insane, stay strong brother
ZippaThaRippa 06.13.19	Shipping. It’s good work. Wish it was more physical, I’m getting fat.
makkusu92 06.13.19	@Ambrosian thank you my dude! Work is important but always find the time for family. I luckily got to see my Dad in 2016 before he passed in 2017. You just gotta remember what's important in your life, I'm so happy I got to see him and spend time with the most important person in my life.
makkusu92 06.13.19	@ZippaThaRippa nice! I appreciate your work man. @trilo awesome dude. Internships are great for work experience which is what employers look for.

Gallantin 06.13.19	I run the nightfill team at a supermarket
DoofDoof 06.13.19	50% office work/working from home, 50% site work - I'd struggle to go into a job that's 100% indoors or outdoors now, the balance is what I like most at this point. Also work with two of my closest friends which is a huge positive. Near total freedom and the money is decent, just need to keep my job as turbulent times in the UK
Pon 06.13.19	In-home care for the disabled
PyramidNoise 06.13.19	Marketing agency work. We've been real quiet recently. Plus I've got my notice handed in for a new, shiner, better job in the city where my girlfriend lives. So I'm kinda just killing time atm.
DrGonzo1937 06.13.19	I am the stores manager for an insulation company; nothing exciting.

fogza 06.13.19	Bits and pieces IT developer
DoofDoof 06.13.19	from these descriptions I'm not feeling we have the next Elon Musk hidden among our number
TheClansman95 06.13.19	I'm a student. I don't work (still)
Egarran 06.13.19	Yeah apparently Musk likes Grimes.
Dedes 06.13.19	I work at an Italian deli. 8-6 and 6 days a week. Its aight, money is good for deli work and I get free lunch there.
Trifolium 06.13.19	Maybe he's keeping low profile. Or he's actually lying about his job here.
fogza 06.13.19	I think it's entirely plausible that someone here could make boneheaded tweets about rescue workers.
butt. 06.13.19	I’m guessing sharkattack is actually Elon Musk, and this whole shark attack thing is just a facade
Henderson 06.13.19	Railway safety engineer. Not the most exciting job but it's usually not too bad, plus someone's gotta make sure those trains are designed as they should.
BlazinBlitzer 06.13.19	I'm a sophomore-year biochemistry student at university right now, hoping to get into med school. Since it's the Summer, I've recently been shadowing a pathologist assistant and that's been going pretty good so far.

Alastor 06.13.19	I draw stuff.
wham49 06.13.19	HS special ed teacher
Egarran 06.14.19	Oh, tell us more. Was just about to ask if there are any teachers here. Best jobs I had were teaching.
BenThatsMyJamin 06.14.19	@garas what area of biology you in?
garas 06.14.19	Molecular plant biology. Salt stress, CRISPR-Cas9 editing on tomato plants.
Calc 06.14.19	state investigator for normal job/federal special agent for army.
BenThatsMyJamin 06.14.19	Ah sweet, I'm on my BSc industrial placement atm working on immunotherapeutics. A lot of scepticism surrounding CRISPR where I work, though think it tends to be of a certain generation lol
garas 06.14.19	That's cool! Immunotherapeutics are very trendy and interesting. I got used to those scepticals, haha. But I don't care, since it leads me to have good publications and results + much easier to use than TALEN and other stuff. (Still very hard tho...tomato doesn't "like it" that much, haha)
BenThatsMyJamin 06.14.19	Yeah it's an insanely interesting project for a placement student, I'm honoured they've given it to me! Would love to work with CRISPR at some point too - good luck with your tomatoes!
wham49 06.17.19	you dont want to hear about it Egarran, but usually pretty cool always changing, never doing the same thing twice, at the very least it does not get boring
Dimorphic 06.17.19	I do contract work for large manufacturing/engineering companies where I basically examine the process of task performance in the development of complex structures and the environments of work. I identify weaknesses and limitations (there are always loads since the infrastructure is generally built decades ago without the human operator in mind) and write reports for management to basically either give justification for them not doing anything or to be like "dude, sort this shit out, come on". But I'm thinking of doing an MSc. in something slightly different because the infrastructure is so big and expensive that it's rarely financially feasible to make real changes anyway, so I basically just do all the work without the guys on the shop-floor seeing any benefits in the long run.
Egarran 06.17.19	>you dont want to hear about it Egarran, but usually pretty cool always changing, never doing the same thing twice, at the very least it does not get boring Hmm, this does sound like something I want to hear more about, though. Hopefully I can break the ice by mentioning that one of my students had been tortured in Syria.
