What do you do for a living?

McKesson's world headquarters is right around the corner from our world headquarters. I also know a project manager at McKesson if you find osmething. Let me know and I can at least get your resume over to him.
 
Fire Fighter/Paramedic, I love my job however the pay is not good, long hours, seeing and dealing with things no human should ever have to. The general public has no clue how stressful the job really is.

Do they make you wear a back brace because of all the fat people you have to move around?

My dad has been an engineer ay Chrysler for 35 years (and running)..... No degree, just high school. He has been arwarded many times for various things he has done there. And considering he was only laid off once (back in the early 80's for less then a year) says alot about his skills and knowledge.

Now if you asked him how to do calculus and differentual equations he would be clueless. I would have liked to be an engineer but I know im not cut out for all that math. Yet I still know alot more about common mechanics then alot of my buddies who are engineering grads.

I chose to get my BBA in supply chain managment which is a growing field, and so far I love it. Some aspects of it are like engineering without alot of the math requirments (mostly operations). Its a great field due to the versatiliy of the degree, almost all idustries hire supply chain professionals (auto, technology, food, ect). Also it can be used several ways.. Logistics, Procurement, Purchasing, Supply chain, ect.

Somthing I would recommend you look into, also one of the BEST schools in the nation for SCM is located in Michigan - Michigan State, I wish I would have just went to MSU because of the name. In the SCM world its like going to Harvord law to be a lawyer.

If you like playing with cars as a hobby, I suggest doing something non automotive related. I used to absolutely love painting cars/bikes whatever it didn't matter, my love for painting turned into a great career but I now absolutely hate painting cars/etc. I really wanted to be a firefighter growing up and wished I would have pursued it

x10. You've met my dad, lol. His advice to me was "What do you like to do?" He followed it up with "Take that, and never fuckin do it as your career." Haha. He used to love cars as well, but after 30+ years of being a Tech, he hates it now.
 
Ten years in the military, now currently on the line at GM. It's not what I want to do, but I do like my job and had the opportunity to get the job and am making the most of it. I'm hoping my writing career takes off soon, as I've already started writing my first book about an alternative WW2 scenario entitled 'Iron Spring'. I'm hoping to turn my one book into a series.
