I am a red neck...


I work in construction, I was a structural engineer, hated every second of it.

Not to mention that you have great glutes  ;D
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

Being on our community's utility commission the first thing I thought of was operator of water filtration plant.  Then the guy in me kicked in and I'm thinking professional or recreational (very little difference between the two) beer taster/consumer  ;D

Actually I should say water treatment, but some time over the years when people asked me what I do for a living I started to reply that I make water.  You would be surprised at how clueless many people are about where their water comes from.  At the facility where I work we treat water from Lake Michigan.  I had one guy tell me that "no he didn't drink water from the lake because fish swim in it".  I have no idea where he thought the water came from that came out of his faucet as it did come from our plant.

I use to be a beer taster, not professionally, but one of the top ameratures.

There are a lot of stupid people in this world. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to not be one of those people.
