Title: Post Your Real Life Careers
Post by: Shirey Jenkins on August 14, 2010, 04:12:29 AM
Since we are still relativly small here and we see each other fairly frequently in game, I thought it may be interesting to see what everyone here does for a living. Post away :)

I am a Registered Nurse working in obtaining my Masters in Nursing.

I work for Trane doing HVAC in VA (the next state over from my own state of TN) and by the Kentucky border. I'm the smallest guy on the crew and since they're like ogre lords from the mountains I'm the ceiling crawler who gets into the tight places they can't fit into. Kinda funny, really.

Just drive/work a lot of hours and can't play during the week much and my hands/arms always look like I fought a razor wire fence. Only company we really get out there are the (overabundance of) bear, elk, and deer. Oh, and hillbillies coming into town for more beer.

Apart from that I do some metal (music) journalism, casting/recasting, sculpture, and illustration for extra money here and there; mostly for something constructive to do.


Some kind of recent sculpture work:

An Iron Maiden 'Fear of the Dark' scrap that's turning into ..

.. something a little more 'Piece of Mind'/'Powerslave' era.

I'm the real crook here. I run a corner store in the downtown of yhe city I live in. I bought it after working there for a few years. The owner got a divorced and had to liqidate his assets (including this store), so i got it pretty cheap. It's a good investment, but a word to the wise; Corner stores are hell.
