There sure are a lot of smart people on here, as someone said on here a couple years ago, "all gun owners aren't a bunch of backwards hillbilly rednecks".

Well I'm just a redneck not backwards, I don't think.

My brother and I own a vinyl siding business, we do of course vinyl siding, replacement windows, & canopys, glass enclosuers, and some other small additons.

We also raise a few cows from time to time. Cut, rake, and bale hay for our self and a neighbor. None at the moment just one useless horse. lol,

Hey, I said kill them, not harvest them. Seriously, did that one summer for Hiwassee Land Company.

But still, you saw me splitting wood with my mighty $10 CTD knife ... think what I can do with chainsaw and axe!

But it would take some real coin to draw me out of retirement. :D

I am currently UNEMPLOYED... I do Graphic Design and Illustration...thinking of going FREELANCE and just doing what I "like" to do. I did 20 years in the Navy...have a monthly retirement check...worked for INGRAM CONTENT GROUP from 1998 until the day after Thanksgiving 2011...and can draw a pension from INGRAM starting in June 2012 if I want to. I'm looking for a new gig...but whether its doing graphic design or whatever is no big deal...I'm game for just about anything...just NO MORE CRAZY STRESS.

IF you know of anything...and I mean just about anything...let me know...any gun shops looking to hire counter help?

I work as a chemist for a medium sized chemical company. One of my responsibilities is developing products for a myriad of industries, or copying what someone else has done and try to take their business by lowering the price and/or providing better service. Additional responsibilities are MSDS authoring, overseeing quality control, dealing with all of the regulatory crap, a little selling, a little purchasing/sourcing, overseeing the plant manager, production staff, shipping staff, etc... to ensure that we doing things correctly and efficiently, and explaining to some of our salesmen that just because I have a degree in chemistry and have almost 15 years of experience I do not know everything.

Ultimately, I'm a catch all. The owner seems to want me involved in every little aspect of what we do. It is highly stressful, and I would have quit long ago ( I did twice, but only for an hour) , but he pays me well so I endure all the crap I have to put up with.
