I teach Environmental Biology at a community college, fell into the position right after graduate school, going on my 16 years. Absolutely love my job and it gives me time to sled in the winter and spend time at family cabin in Hayward in Summer. I thought I had a pension until I realized I live in Illinois. I also have a few rental houses.

I am a manufacturing engineer for an aerospace company that designs and manufactures fuel controls for jet engines. I also own some rental properties and am tossing around the idea of starting a machine shop. Great to see what everyone else does and see a lot of new names posting as well.

Chemist at a pharmaceutical company. I can tell you why your meds cost so much, unfortunately my cut is a very very small % of what you are paying.

Maybe he enjoys what he does, and has "never worked" a day in his life. And doesn't want to retire.

Lead a team that takes apart a nuclear reactor, refuels it and puts it back together. Little more complex then that but you get the picture ��
For your sake, I hope you make a ton of money. For our sake, I hope you never have a bad day at work!
Must be at Fermi #2?
Way-way-back when I was a youngster, when one of my uncles was some kind of mogul at Detroit Edison, I got a 25¢ tour of Detroit Edison's first nuke plant (probably Fermi #1?) before it's first commercial operation in 1966. (It must have been either before I headed off to Mich Tech in 1958, or perhaps later, between MTU and 6th Army Headquarters in 1965?) — That was quite the experience for the time!
Ye dogs, I feel old!
