What do you do for a living?

Hi , I've worked in construction last 30 years .. done everything from plastering to demolition , I am currently foreman for a welding and construction company, we specialize in pipelines and building filter houses and pump houses for geo thermal heating systems .
 
It makes me smile to see that this is such a surprisingly diverse group, bringing hosts of different experiences to the table . . .

I work full-time in a small print shop, where I _am_ the prepress department. On weekends, including a lot of Friday nights, I work at the local public aquarium (The Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk), where I'm mostly involved in what I refer to as "education lite"; generally tours for scout overnight programs, childrens' birthday parties (with the odd adult birthday party tossed in!) and interacting with the visiting public. It's far more physically demanding and pays less than my 9-5 ... but it's _so_ much more meaningful!
