Small world, big internet.. Lol
Worked as a helper for a couple years on pipeline jobs. Learned quite a bit, just never got a rig together. Decided I liked it here at home better. It's hard to homebrew in an RV. I've done it though....

I worked in a shop most of the time, but had to go to the field quite a bit. nothing like welding pipe in the middle of NE Wyoming in -10F and wind blowing 30 mph with the only shelter being your rig. now I'm in a shop all day and don't miss the field work so much!:D
 
Plumber/pipefitter/welder here. I do contracting mostly in power plants, food processing, chemical plants, paper mills etc. Working on a hydro electric dam for the past 14 months. I've never gotten any of that pipeline work, just small pipe 24 inch and under. Just as well, if I found a piece of thin walled 36 inch stainless I'd have to make a bk.
 
Education: Aerospace Engineering, Industrial and Systems Engineering, MBA
Job: Telecommunications software architecture and development

I always wanted to learn to sanitary TIG stainless to make my own conical. largest pipe I've welded was 30", but I welded a lot of it in position without BIL welding. if we had room in the shop, I could have used the positioner as a roll out wheel.
 
Video producer, editor and camera guy... mostly freelancing for YouTube. Also, editing web shows for another company.
 
I design heart assist pumps for people experiencing heart failure and all of the ancillaries associated with them.

I've had alot of the training and work with your kind daily. I can only imagine your setup. Depending on your resources, your system may not require you to even be around on brew day. You just tap a key or two on your lap top, half a world away and the process starts. You monitor and it does it all, right down to the kegging and carbing.

Heck it could be so automated that you only have to work the tap/bottle opener! LOL

So far I'm all manual because I'm fairly new, but I have all kinds of ideas . I want to start with precise temperature control and run thermocouples into a controller that will dump data to a database that runs a trend on my TV upstairs. Then graduate to hot water purge system operated by solenoids for easy clean. Baby steps though :)

Retired Marine Comm Officer...currently a mercenary supporting the Marine Corps on one of the programs I used to run....

Really want to be a gun smith...and headed that way in a year or so.
 
By title I am a machinist. The work I do, however, is on par with what my company calls a "Manufacturing Processing Specialist Engineer". What it boils down to is that I have all the experience and know how to do the job, but I don't have the 4 year degree to qualify for the title or pay. It's a completely backwards system. Idiots straight out of school that cant build a sandwich without mommie's help make twice the money I do because they have a BS in "western tantric mating rituals of the common housefly" or any other such nonsense.
 
I am an accountant. I am also jealous of those who can do every project under the sun like it is second nature to them. I have done a few. Took me 4 months to build my keezer, but it got finished eventually, and worked, so I was pretty pleased in the end... Wish I could weld and do electrical work though...
 
Official title is Systems Administrator, but I am primarily responsible for the HelpDesk for the small investment firm I work for. A jack of all IT trades kinda guy.
 
Neuroscientist. I know more about the effects of beer on the brain than I care to admit. Doesn't stop me though!
