I'm an Operations manager and handle sales for a Moving equipment company. We sell moving trucks, big trailers, and all the equipment that goes in them. Also sell warehousing equipment like pallet jacks, racking, etc... If you have a truck and/or a warehouse, I sell the equipment you use. I also do some moving on the side to help pay for BOMBing the beast.

Mines easy.... truck driver. The past is colorful though... Machinest, Production planner, welder, published a small magazine, computer geek for a while (dos days) starting with Commodore until IBM got 2500 of mine for 4 meg of processor speed, had the first of the Xerox 4500 printers ($6500), small town Mayor for a while, eh Charter bus driver, but most of it was pulling a flat bed 48 states, a couple of truck repair shops, wrecker service, owned a restaurant. Just a plain ole jack of all trades. The body is worn out, synility setting in, even tired of mating , staying old and alone keeping a parrot fed, and working to have christmas for 12 grandkids and 2 greatgrandkids. Everybody has to do something...

Sounds like some of the guys we get at the arena I work at. I was training a new guy a while ago on how to change a blade. The resurfacing blade is actually an industrial paper cutter blade, just used in a different application. It's 1/2" thick steel, 77" long, and 4" wide. VERY heavy, VERY sharp, and VERY worth being ultra careful around. Despite telling this guy a million times not to get near the sharp edge he picks up the old one grasping both sides (sharpened and unsharpened) with both hands and carries it over to the wooden holder on the other side of the room. Just as I start to tell him NOT to carry it that way (for the 50th time) he stumbles, drops it, and it looks like someone spilled 10 gallons of red paint on the floor. Let's just say if I never see another filleted human palm again it'll be too soon. Eighty stitches later he never did that again, of course he did crash into a block wall about two months later so we fired him anyway...
