A fluffer is used in the real estate business as someone that stages houses that are for sale..

A fluffer is a specialist in marshmallow byproducts, particularly those mixed with peanut butter. I'm proud to say I come from a long line of fluffers and hope to carry on our lineage for those that can appreciate our fine craft.:)

As an electric car driver, I wish you the best of luck at your job!

I work as a Process / Maintenance Technician in the semiconductor industry.

Sure, whatever you say.

In the software development industry.

I worked as an air traffic controller USAF four years and then 29 years with the FAA. Mandatory retirement forced me out at age 57 (should have been age 56 but I was able to get extended). So I've been retired for five years and I don't miss working even one bit:D

A year-and-a-half ago I got a new job, too.

I am now a housewife. ;)

Al is much smarter than Jake.

I now do as "little as humanely possible." That's my standard retirement response to my wife who often begins each day with the question, "What are you going to do today?"

As little as humanely possible........

Cheers,

or watches a lot more porn.;):D

Careful, Mike. That is why I am now a housewife! :D

mainframe computer operator (retired)

I see a couple submariners in the bunch. I did a 6 year stint in the USN right out of HS and was on a 637 class sub as a sonarman. I am currently an Operations Manager for an elevator company.

Just wanted to bring this up for the new members who might not have seen it yet. :)

I am an Actuary. Mike

Great thread. Nice to see so many different professions. I'm an ER doctor

Jeff

Nuclear Plant worker here.

In year 34 and plan on retiring within the next couple, or less?

I worked 6 years on construction pouring concrete (hard work!) helping to build the place and got into the operations part of it in early 89.

For those that are wondering, it is nothing like the Simpson's, at least the plant I work at isn't. :D

My daughter at SMU is studying Statistics and Economics (majors) and hopes to be an actuary.

And Jeff, my next door neighbor is an ER doctor......that would be an interesting profession..

I'm in software development and sales. Please buy my product: pulsetracker.com. :cool:

Production Manager for about 20 years.
 

I'm a second/third shift Production Manager for Rogers Foam Corporation located in Somerville, MA where I live. I started as a production worker 32 years ago and never left. We don't make foam, we fabricate foam product into all different shapes and sizes for thousands of different uses from packaging for missiles, rollers for printers or buffing pads for waxing your car. I enjoy my job very much as it varies with the different types of jobs that come in. Never the same thing day in and day out. Always new challenges as new products are developed. I also love my commute as it is a 10-15 minute walk every day regardless of traffic or weather conditions.

Thanks to all for their military service, they are our true heroes.

Leon - It is an interesting line of work. If your daughter has any questions, she can contact me. Mike

[QUOTE=mikemb;1588080]Hey Mike
That is the first time I have heard "interesting" be inferred with "actuary".:) If she has questions I may reach out to you. I have tried to teach her, and it is my belief, that one's income/pay will usually be relative to how many people can fill your shoes. The fewer the better...Thanks much for the generous offer...

Wow....congrats. Not sure you want to broadcast that info. Get ready for a bombardment of PM's about ebay.

I spent 3 years working at Plant Vogtle near Waynesboro Ga when it was being built. I was a carpenter building the forms so the concrete could be poured. You are correct in saying it was hard work.

I am currently a superintendent for a small general contractor. We travel all over the eastern half of the US doing work. I've been with the company 26 1/2 years and have worked in 26 states.

Teacher by trade, but for last 22 years owner of a company in suburban Detroit that does ACT/SAT test prep classes and college admissions counseling.

Just Googled that place and seeing all the rebar brings back haunting memories! :eek:

Actually, our plant looked to have about double that in the pics.

I needed the rod busters once as my path down the wall we were pouring changed as the concrete came up.

Only happened once as I was far more cautious/aware of my surroundings after that! :D

High school business and sports marketing teacher. Also own a couple online stores.

I am a recruiter in the hospitality industry. I'm 22, and love my first office job. The M-F schedule is fantastic, but the ability to constantly shop for cards online during my work day is bad for my wallet.

I wish we had a class like that when I was in high school.

I'm a Web developer and (surprise!) Graphic designer :)

Certification and licensure exams.

Pilot for a large cargo company...think purple tails!

I'm a doctor.

Well, I should probably clarify that. I have a doctorate. I work in medical center fundraising...and mainly cancer center fundraising. Incredibly rewarding. Also incredibly sad at times, but very, very rewarding.

Worked in live theatre for the last 16 years acting, writing and directing. Now I sell little pieces of cardboard, mainly to grown men, but I try and get little kids hooked too.

I assumed I had done this before, but looking through all the pages I see I didn't.

I was a Graphic Designer, but changed careers 3 years ago.
I now working in Medical Billing. I have switched positions several times as the office has needed. I currently do the credentialing of providers with their insurances.

Middle and High School Athletic Director

Sounds like a very fulfilling career! Very cool

I retired in 2011 after 43 yrs at Southern Bell/AT&T/Lucent Tech/Avaya as a technician.
I spend my time now playing softball, growing tomatoes and whatever I want:D.

Thanks to all that served in our military and law enforcement!

I work at amazon

I thought I was the president of an ad agency, but I mostly sign checks and return emails.

Highway designer for 6 1/2 more years.

CEO for a large statewide trade organization.

I am constantly fascinated and impressed by the variety of careers described in this thread.

My own accomplishments have been meager by comparison.

Last July 4, I posted the following:


I really never knew what I was doing when I was doing it...

...and I am so glad to not be doing whatever it was any more.


Retirement is a good fit for me...just wish I was healthier so I could really enjoy it.

For all of you that served our country, my sincere thanks and appreciation!

- I will add to that by admitting that the larger part of my 'adult' life I spent between being a semipro LHP and struggling college student and trying to use retail management to make all that work.

When retail management finally took it's toll on my body, I pursued a position in computer programming, which led me to monitoring incoming financial data for system cohesion for a large third-party credit-card processor (but, they have apps for that now).

After leaving that position, I worked for a time processing claims for the Duck (ALAC) and finally tried my hand at tax processing with H&R Block.

I retired, or rather, gave up looking for work, when I inherited enough money to live on.

My biggest joy these days, aside from my adorable little dog and even more than the BBCs, is being as much of a philanthropist as I can be.

I am now enjoying 'Retirement' after my hip replacement surgery.

Project Manager for a union electrical contractor. I'm also a card holding union electrician.

Mine's more boring than you guys. Commercial pest control. Been doing it for 20 years this August. Before that I was a 911 dispatcher. Just one of those jobs you fall into rather than one you seek.

[QUOTE=sandmountainslim;1601747]Mine's more boring than you guys. Commercial pest control. QUOTE]

From what a buddy of mine says pest control can be very exciting :eek:. He works in an area from west Atlanta to Alabama.
I'm guessing sandmountain is the one near Ft Payne, al.

All very cool jobs. Thank for posting.

Spent 35 years as math teacher and coach. Now retired, I spend my time writing bios for the SABR Bio Proj and working on my Cleveland collection.

I am a long time IT sales person who now resides in the hobby. It is better than big Corporate !! :).

[QUOTE=BruceinGa;1601751]You got it! I work from Sand Mt to Muscle Shoals. There are exciting times but a lot more drudgery than excitement.

I do a lot of stuff around the world of graphic design. I've worked as an illustrator, graphic designer, then web designer-developer, and finally as an art director in the corporate world over the course of about 15 years. I left that gig and have been self-employed as a contractor/freelancer plying all those disciplines for the last 12. I'm currently aspiring to add 'food photographer' to my resume.

I sold my employment service a month ago
 

So for the time being I'm just selling cards until I find something else to do.

Food photographer? I would be eating my subjects.

On a related note, my refrigerator's light comes on so frequently due to my raids, people think I have a strobe light.

LOL. Perhaps not if you knew what they are actually photographing. That delicious looking ice cream scoop? Probably a ball of Crisco. Having worked in the food marketing business for a long time, I can tell you that food photography and food styling is a pretty lucrative business!

Lawyer. I have a solo practice in Burbank, CA primarily in the construction, real estate, business areas. Also do stand-up comedy, for about the last six years. No money in it but great fun.

I thought I would bring this topic up again for the new members that might not have seen it. :)

High School Principal. I have about 2,600 teenagers each day...:rolleyes:

I have a landscape business;

at least I thought I did, but I'm still looking for 1 quality employee, who cares 1/3rd as much as I do after 25 years about the quality of their work; so I guess I am more of a babysitter who works outside on other people's properties.

I own a commercial exterminating business in Manhattan, The Big Apple...

I guess my name and avatar might have been a clue as to what I do.

I'm a mechanical engineer by degree, been working for the same large gov't organization (think 'space shuttle') for 28 years.

For the last 12 years, I've been working the 'unmanned' side of things.

Catalog Maintenance Expert At COMC -- love seeing what comes in in both sports and non sports.

I'm a lithographer (printer), been at it for close to 35 years. It has been a satisfying career, as I have witnessed first hand the digital revolution and the changes in print production. Worked mainly in large format high end printing with sheet sizes of 60 x 81" 6 colour printing presses..Was lucky enough to have worked at a shop that printed 87, 88,89,90 OPC hockey cards...

I'm in IT (mostly database stuff now, but I used to do VB.Net development too) supporting departments that do the credentialing and enrollment of health care providers in a major hospital organization.

Work on the testing side of certification and licensure. Turning learners into earners!
