43 year old Carpenter. Married with a 20 month old baby girl, who is my reason here on earth. I'm currently addicted to premium cigars. Seriously, I like to golf, build things but most of all spend time with my family. Sounds corny right, I partied my balls of in my 20's, made alotta money in my 30's and now I'm livin' life with the best job ever, Dad. Glad to be part of this site, seems like lots of good peeps here.
What do you do and what else do you do?

Know whatcha mean. I work for Rain for Rent and specialize in sewer bypassing. Have you ever worked with us?
You know I'm not sure who we get our pumps from... I work at the main treatment plant, so I don't see a lot of the system bypasses. We have on occasion rented big pumps like 6-10 mgd, just not sure who with. Not many people can say I love my shit job and mean it

It always smells like $hit to most people but to me it smells like money. What muni do you work for?You know I'm not sure who we get our pumps from...

I work for the city of Palo Alto. I love the job. It's not the sludge that smells the grease trap scum is the worst!
Roger that!
I am a plant manager for the fastest growing all medical textile plant in the US. Been in the textile business in one form or another for 22 yrs. Married with two daughters.
My other interests are: tournement bass fishing, over 30 rugby league ( league champions the last two years running :1st: ) and recently have been asked to ref in our local hockey league.
Other than that enjoy working in the yard and spending time with the family...pretty boring really.

Hello Folks. I am an architect working for a medium sized firm in Harvard Square in Cambridge, MA (today is Harvard's graduation and is nuts out in the streets)! Our firm specializes in academic science and research facilities and we do work all over the country, but mostly on the east coast. I am currently putting out to bid a $50M renovation/ research complex for a local State university. Fun and rewarding work. For hobbies, I like to work with wood and have a workshop in my garage devoted to woodworking and this is also where I smoke my cigars. Other activities I enjoy but find less time to do is fly fishing and photography. I am a recent dad of a three week old son and have a 2 1/2" yo daughter, so they are really my true focus, and not a bad one at that.
Great thread! I've enjoyed reading what others do in this game we call life. Peace.

e-dawg, congrats on your new addition!
Evening gents:
I currently work for the fire department and am coming up on my 9 yr anniversary of service. I've been a medic for 8 yrs. However, I'll be resigning in a month to pursue my medical doctorate (gonna be one tough goodbye). I'll be heading back to ODU to get my prerequisites and apply to med school. My lovely wife is an echocardiographer and has graciously decided to support me in this venture. Right now, we're looking to buy a house. I have a wonderful 3 yo step son and we're currently expecting a son in December. Break out the cigars!

I am an operating engineer for 11 years now. I am married with two boys, 8 months and 2yrs and have a 16yo step-son. And an 8 year old English bulldog.
My hobbies are cigars of course, I'm on a pool league, craft beer, and other hobbies that I can't afford or have time for anymore.
My favorite teams are Da Bears, Da Cubs, Da Blackhawks, and The Fighting Irish.
That's about all folks. Most days you will find me chilling with my wife and kids.

I'ma retail branch manager. In my spare time, I pretty much just try to keep up with my kids, ages 5, 4, 1, and right now, I'm also trying to run a household as well, since my wife is on semi-bedrest due to being pregnant with twin girls due in September!
So yeah, no time or money for any extra hobbies here. Just trying to keep up with dishes and laundry is enough for this guy!

Hello
I work in the Electronic Recycling Industry. Which is bigger than I would have ever expected. Hahaha I have been in the industry for 5 years now and prior to that I worked in the Beauty Supply Industry / Distribution / Warehouse for 10 yrs. I got out at the right time because just after I left the owner sold and he new company closed the doors a few years later to open a bigger shop in PA and didn't transfer any jobs.
I have been married for 7 years but together for 15. We have two kids. A girl 6 and a boy 2.5. I love being around people, the bigger the crowd the happier I am ( crazy I know ). I love camping, fishing, boating, golfing, Music, friends and family. I have a great family and a great group of friends. We have a camper on a seasonal site that the kids love and a small little boat that the kids hate lol. But most of all I love spending time with my wife and kids.

I am a stay at home dad.
When my daughter was born last December, I quit my job in seafood after about 5 years (fallout after the tech crunch) and spend all my time with her.
Otherwise I love fishing, and particularly fishing from my kayak. I consider myself an equal opportunity angler and will fish for anything, but I definitely prefer saltwater fishing.
