I have worked at a level 1 pediatric trauma center as an RN for coming up on 30 years. Most people around a dinner table don’t want to hear anything about my job let alone see pictures. I don’t use my Ranger for work unless you count being able to squeeze into the tiny parking spaces in the garage. I do have lots of hobbies though like woodworking and camping and too many to name. I’m hoping to have this truck in 8 years when I retire.
Which hospital are you at?

If you Facebook... check out a group called “guns and aviators”. Sounds like you would fit right in

I don't facebook but those sound like my kind of people :handsinair:. Also, in case anyone is wondering.. there's no such thing as a captain of a Cessna, I'm basically a nobody compared to @Walkeraviator

I wouldn’t say that. You are a licensed pilot. That makes you part of .002% of the population. I would say that’s somebody. I just got lucky enough that my hobby turned into a career. Do you own or rent?

I’m an auditor for the state of California. I basically am sent all over the state to make sure that state government agencies are spending money and performing in accordance to laws and other guidelines as they should be and if not that changes are implemented.

I’m a technical support engineer for MCAD/ECAD data management software. Customers call me when they are having trouble, it’s a dirty job but some one has to do it.

I rent, not sure I can justify the maintenance costs of ownership. I’m still contemplating going commercial, just can’t decide. I may get my CFI just to get some paid flight time.

Hi Folks,

I am the neighborhood Mr. Fixit. I help out the neighbors in the area...some 144 houses with repairs, improvements etc. I work for beer only...many folks are shut-ins and cannot drive and are clueless on seeking repair of many simple things like kitchen cabinet door that came off the frame, for example. These old farts are amazing in what they were and did in their earlier life..I love sitting and letting them tell their story over a much appreciated beer or better yet...a Single Malt Scotch on the rocks!

It is a time in my life at age 70 to give back, much like these Forums where it is my time in life to give back...

Best,
Phil Schilke

My Next door neighbor was a WWII B24 pilot, then an engineer for Hendericson Chassis in the Chicago area. His smoking was restricted to a bench next to the drive way. I work on Urals a Russian copy of a BMW motorcycle , he told me how his bomber crew confiscated a German BMW and would transport it in the bomb bay from base to base for there personal use. . I would show him failed components and I got the benefit of his years of experience , his company would send a limo to take him to the plant so they could mine all the engineering date he had in his mind that they never documented . He is gone now and I miss my conversations with him on the bench , I now am on call for his wife for what ever . I am happy to see her Children and grown Grand children's cars in the driveway on weekends..
