For us that do work what is it ya doo.

I myself am a Diesel Heavy Truck mehcanic for Ryder transportation. 

Some of the nicer trucks i work on these things are NICE to drive with most of em powered by Cat C15's and all haveing 13 speed eatons transmishions.  Very heavy spec trucks but actually quite easy to work with minus the PITA in keeping em SUPER clean. From left to right is 887, 450, 651, and i think 357.  And yes their beer is pretty good.

I work at my local pool during the summers as a concession/admission worker and a fill in supervisor.  So basically I sit around all day doing nothing except eating all the food I want while getting paid.  Get paid $7.00 a hour and minimum wage here is $5.15.  Its not much but it works for a summer job.

 I am done with that for the summer in 3 days because I will be leaving for school soon.

Odd jobs mainly.  I plan on going into either Journalism and trying to right for Facefull, or PB2x.  It's either that, or Getting a major in market/Bussiness admin. and going to work at Vengeance/Ground Zero.

Yea, way to skip the other half of it.  Last time I checked, people can have double majors.


Plus, I'm actually a really good writer, and a pretty damned smart kid.  I scored a 2210 on my SAT's, and scored perfect on both the english section, and the essay.  Not only that, but I've got friends in tons of high places in the paintball industry. I speak to one of the owners of Vengeance at least twice a week, and have stayed at his house on alot of occasions. 

Now, go drink some more.  You don't post anything worthwhile anymore.

I work in a lumber yard breaking stuff with a forklift and lifting heavy objects for "meh" pay.

Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.
