| Just wondering what jobs other people were doing before getting into a truck. I worked on ranches, worked at the feed store, and rode bulls. |

I drove a truck, before I started driving a truck.
I did farming, and I still work part-time farm work on the weekends, etc. |

Like plastic explosives or what exactly? Sounds cool. Burnt out is that a play on plastics? |

| Product designs, tooling and manufacturing. If you have an invention, I am the one to get it done for you. I have designed products that you all have used if you drive a vehicle, flown on a plane, have appliances in you home just to name a few. I am proud of my work and have enjoyed it but now it is being outsourced and it is no longer a good career. I made less this year that I made in 1975. |

| Filled vending machines and drove a straight truck for the same company a couple times of the month. Then those bastards promoted me and put me behind a desk. That didn't last to long :lol: |
