Man I love message boards.
No matter the subject, folks always seem to find something to argue about.
Fuk you... no fuk you... NO fuk you... NO FUK YOU.... etc.. etc... etc...
I posted some a while back, but took this pic the other morning and it seemed interesting (to me at least). Damn it's cold.
Ohhhh....now I see Billy, the stinkin' Linkin' for a SCHTICK welder....lol ... no but seriously, there's nothing finer than a pipeliner! I worked a job back east in the PA NJ NY tri state. I never had much use for stick welding, but boy you guys that can do it in some of the most ridiculous places and positions is like F'ng magic. Like a 6" pipe off the floor about 2" and 2" away from a concrete call...the way the stick can be bent around the pipe and make a sound weld! I can do some real TRICK **** with wire, but nothing like that! Hats off...
I love this thread, as it demonstrates quite admirably that brewers come from all walks of life. Beer brings the world together
I also have a love-hate relationship with my job. I'm a pediatric respiratory therapist in a Children's Hospital. My job can be low-stress (Giving asthmatics or Cystic Fibrosis patients breathing treatments) and high-stress (Intubating patients, managing ventilators, coding infants). I love it when we make a difference, and a child goes home safe and sound. But unfortunately sometimes I go home and need more than my usual bed-time pint...
These pictures are obviously not from my hospital, as that would violate HIPAA, but these are the kinds of patients I take care of.
My Aunt and cousin do some kind of blood work at a hospital...and I've been rushed into emergency rooms my self a few times, I can really say thanks for all who are in the business of healing! Thanks.
Finally got inside and out of the PacNW rain to build some designs.
I'm a CNC Machinist. I love my job. Being able to create damn near anything from just a solid hunk of steel is damn satisfying. Plus, in the spare time... oh, I need a special bracket for my Mustang? MACHINED! Oh, you'd like some super fancy engraved plates to print your wedding invitation? MACHINED!
And anyone who hasn't seen a 5-axis machine doing it's duty is missing out:

I know all about that PNW weather ...I lived in a rain forest just north of Downtown Seattle in a tent for damn near a year, I've banged nails on the "Street of Dreams" and cedar sided half of Queen Anne and parts around Lake Washington and Whidbey.
Can't say I miss it.
Independent oil and gas producer. It's a ****ty job some days but im my own boss so that rules!
Ah. Nimbus hatchery. That is a nice fish!
Hows that Taco holding out? My 05 dbl cab trd just blew the diff in some really small stuff in the front yard, other than that though i love it, depending on what the dealer says though............... I would imagine you've been in some sticker stuff..
The manager of our Texas division has a Tacoma from pre-2000, I'm not sure exactly how old it is but years ago when he got his company car the Tacoma had 450K oilfield miles on it. In December his nephew borrowed it, drove to New Jersey, loaded it with all his stuff and drove back to OdessaHows that Taco holding out?

I love most of my job, but tonight I had to fire a good worker and friend who had an accident and he tested positive for weed. The pot had nothing to do with the accident but in the oilfield it doesn't matter. This is an aspect of my job that truly sucks.
Mudlogging, geological consulting and we manufacture gas chromatographs for the mudlogging industry.That's the way it goes, have to stay clean to earn those big time walrus pelts! That being said, I'm sure it was super tough, and man that sucks.
The company I work for doesn't keep vehicles very long at all, 100-130k tops. The oilfields are just plain ROUGH on a vehicle.
What all do you do?
Mudlogging, geological consulting and we manufacture gas chromatographs for the mudlogging industry.
Our insurance provider nad some of our clients audit us on a regular basis for drug testing so it has to be done.
What do y'all do?
Sweet, another geologist! I do geotechnical engineering and engineering geology in California. Used to be a private consultant, now I work for the State on levees. Geology and beer just seem to go together.
I get to "travel the world" for work.
here is the beginnings of an oxidizer for Kingsford ...I guess they'l make charcoal in it. OAL will be 54+ feet and about 10 across... the entire project will have about 3000 lbs of weld alone!
