10 years at a Toyota dealership. F&I manager.

So should I buy a toyota, or a Hyundai??

 

[Rick500]

I'd buy a Toyota in a second if I was in the market... Lotsa deals right now.

 

[alexdagrate]

Public Defender.

Standing up to the man every day and getting paid for it rules.

Plus, I get to wear a suit everyday but not feel like I've "sold out."

Yep, I actually enjoy wearing a suit. I've had judges make fun of me for it.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

21 years in the glass business. I'm the chief estimator for a commercial glazing sub-contractor. Mid-to-high rise buildings for the most part (until the economy took a sh*t). Unfortunatley, when the construction market went south it went way south. Being in Dallas we have it better than most of the country but it is still a struggle. I sold my first job of the year last week! At least I still have a job and I get to brew beer a couple of times a month.

 

[TheManes]

I used to buy and sell stocks, now I buy and sell chicken and beer.

[imaguitargod]

Wow, so it looks like me and three other people are the only ones with jobs that would directly help homebrewing. I would have thought there'd be more. huh.

 

[glenn514]

Technically, I don't DO anything for a living! Those of you that work provide me with a monthly stipend...since I've been RETIRED for 9.5 months!

Prior to my retirement, I served as a music director at a large Lutheran congregation, working with the children in the Christian Day school as well as the adults involved in the ministry of music.

Since my hands have "made" my living for me, that works out well with brewing! It's a very hand-oriented hobby.

[steinsato]

I'm a Radiation Therapist at a Cancer Center. I have absolutely no woodworking, gardening, electrical, or welding skills at all. But I do like to brew and drink beer!

 

[steinsato]

I'm a soybean breeder. 8^>

Ha, I read that and immediately looked at where you were from. I knew it would be Illinois. I grew up in the NW corner of IL and it's nothing but corn and soybeans.

 

[beerjunky828]

Soon to be graduate without a job. I currently work in a deli. It pays the bills. But that is about all it does. I will be getting my degree in chemistry and it plays a big part in my brewing. I cannot build anything for !#$%.

 

[Bru]

Make that four - I use my companies glasses, glass crates, my drivers collect supplies and I use surplas LP gas.

Wow, so it looks like me and three other people are the only ones with jobs that would directly help homebrewing. I would have thought there'd be more. huh.

Need an apprentice with a Gas Tech 3? I'm done school at Conestoga in August.

Not at the moment but ya never know. Check with me when your done your gas course

 

[drac0]

I work with computers.. Done everything from Aviation Electronics to tech support. I've been the IS Manager for my employer for the last 4 of the 5.5 years I've worked for them.

Not a whole lot for brewing, but I do come from a family with a huge DIY background, so I guess it's natural that I figured I could make things I couldn't get or make them better than I could buy them.

 

[sfrice80]

Hey,

Thought I would start a thread about this because I'm always wondering what everyone does for a living. I'm guessing this site brings people from all walks of life. It would be cool to see how you balance work with brewing!

I'll start it off and say I'm a dental student and this hobby couldn't work out any better with my schedule because of the long periods of fermenting and conditioning.

 

[Diver165]
