What does everyone do for a living?

[Fisting_Chili]

LOL!  I'm just curious because I'm new and I've been leafing through a lot of posts here and many of the knives I've thought were gorgeous, I've had to look up.  I was shocked at how much some of them costs and that made me wonder, how the hell you all got so rich?   

I was really loving some of the Reeves knives and espcially the Umnumzaan, but damn...I can't afford $400.00 - $1,750.00 (yes...there is one on eBay for that much).  I have knife envy for most of you.

[Fisting_Chili]

Oh...and I'm a project manager (contractor) in Oregon, USA

[Fisting_Chili]

Er...hope I didn't break any kind of etiquette rule here.  Don't mean to be rude

[Gadget Guy]

I'm Retired. 

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

No breech of etiquette mate

Just the wrong forum (I'll move it now )  

[zepla]

I'm retiring every day but it only lasts one day and then have to go to work again  

Didn't we already had a thread like this

If we did, I apologize.   Did not see it...but then I was looking in the wrong place I guess, lol.

Ben, isn't that what Ian Curtis from Joy Division did?  You might want to read his bio.

I like this turn of events:

Pathologist for quite a while.  Before that, an abused medical resident, before that an abused medical student, before that I built chainsaw bars at Oregon Bar, before that, worked in the family bakery, before that worked at garden nursery


Next?

BTW, I don't have epilepsy myself, but my brother does (and again a world of other problems) so it is kinda my speSmurfpillst subject and the reason why I do what I do.

I was there when they had the mass migration from the old VA to the new VA.  It was a surreal sight--reminiscent of a zombie movie.
