I would probably take the first flight to Fallujah. My wife told me if I tried to re-enlist she would break my legs in my sleep then divorce me though.

Electricians get put on ships or subs. Enjoy your hammock!

I would be in a concrete mixer or on a Track Hoe. Both jobs I had for a few years before I finally took the plunge into this field.

I would be pulling cars apart at the wrecking yard [Linked Image]

Its all fun and games till you realize its just a family-owned break-even venture operated to satisfy their own need to tinker with vehicles full-time. [Linked Image]

Upon that realization, I left to start electrical. [Linked Image]

More than likely a Slaughterman at the local meat-works.
Or a Chimney-Sweep.
Such choice! [Linked Image]

I would still be a draftsman since that is what I was doing before I got involved with engineering. [Linked Image]

If I had to avoid choosing any of the electrical or electronic/telecoms fields in which I'm involved, maybe either a teacher (because I love having kids around and showing them new things) or a pilot (because I once had a go at flying a small plane and loved it).

I would probably still be driving truck. Though about a year ago, toyed around with the idea of looking into opening up my own massage therapist biz. Here I am to this day, still pulling wire. <sigh> Cant complain, really, working for a good company and never had any problems with any of the crew...maybe its because its such a small company and we're pretty tight...?
