[rpcookin]

Journeyman machinist for 33 years, retired.  Started with a company that had some really old machine tools (during my apprenticeship I ran a gear cutter that was built during the civil war).  Made mining and smelting equipment for 12 years, some parts weighing more than 50 tons.  When that company closed, I moved to a company that designs and builds high precision, state of the art machinery for extruding aluminum cans and printing the labels on them.  I retired from there 8 years ago.

Why are there so few women around here?? I'm a manager for a large company that offers property management software, websites and other services to property management and real estate companies. I manage a group of writers who provide content (as in we write the bs you read when you visit the website) for property management websites. And I do it all remotely from home. I've never even visited the corporate offices. So I can, cook, smoke, knit, crochet and anything else I want to do while working. Life is good.

Welcome. Not sure why there are not more women around here. Sounds like a great gig you have.

I work part time for a local fire dept & also part time for an EMS service as an EMT Basic.

I am also going to nursing school. I start the 2nd level of 4 levels next week...I am so ready to get that over with!

Guess I can update this now... I did make it through the hell of nursing clinicals and am now working as an RN in a Level 1 Trauma Center, meaning we see the worst of the worst. When something bad happens, they bring or fly you to us! Over the 3 years I have been there, I have seen some pretty major trauma!

I am also still working part time (very part time) for the FD and EMS. Would much rather be out in the field, but the money just isn't there! I know money isn't everything, but it sure makes life easier! Especially since I work 12 hours shifts as an RN, I only work 14 days per month leaving plenty of free time!
