Worked as a machinist, welder, bridge bolt maker, automotive mechanic, went to Collage to become a system analyst, minor in programming in computer's and the last 32 years at our water company as my final position as chief Superintendent of wastewater! I started with tube amps when I was a kid and now figure my system is around 30 to 40,000.00 in amps, speakers and such! Extremely happy with my system and always looking for better!
What do/did you do for a living?
With the increasingly high priced items people own and are selling, I'm curious about the line of work people do or have done. I thought my $5k integrated was a massive investment, but seeing users searching for $100k speakers or $75k SET amplifiers has me curious about the varying lines of work people do to afford these items.

erik_squires I bring madness to the chaos. I know it sounds easy, but let me tell you, it’s a lot of detail work to pull it off day after day. If you have the passion it is easy to get started, but takes a lifetime to master. The thread is 'What do you do for a living?' This seems incoherent, not to mention having to do nothing with the thread. Perhaps you could start a thread of your own. |
I was in the moving and storage business in sales and marketing with the last 8 years getting paid on commission only. I would say that 75% of the "mover stories" you hear are created by the customer from either under estimating or shopping for a low price. For the last 5 years, I've been doing a lot of traveling in my Airstream and spending too much time and money on my photography obsession/business. I could have bought a Lamborghini for what I paid for 3 bags of German and Swiss cameras and lenses. Shooting medium format, I can make wall sized prints. And now most people look at photographs on a tiny screen. How sad. Instagram @coasttocoastphotoatl. |
Well I’m an electrician IBEW who went to the movie theater to see a Beatle movie. Heard If I fell in stereo went home and found out that my 45 didn’t sound that way. Have chased since then. I love my systems have a Meridian home theatre in the basement DSP 5500 with their DSP sub. Love blowing people away. Got myself separated from my first wife 13 years ago by gods grace and mercy and have put together 2 great systems the Meridian and my B&W Diamond (802D fronts HTM1D center and 803D rears 2 B&W subs) system have a ton of movies and CD’s enjoy getting goosebumps when I hear If I fell now. Just purchased a new Trinnov 16 waiting to install in 2 weeks when I get back from Vacation. Thanks. |
