What do you do for work?

[JustKyle]

So, purely out of curiosity, what do you do for work? Also on that same note, what’s your hobby, besides bbqing succulent meat?

I’m a signalman for BNSF Railroad, and I’m a car guy to the core. If I’m not cooking, I’m messing with my car. Just interested in what other people do and enjoy.

I am basically a retired automotive technician after working on cars since 1973 so I guess you could call me a car guy. My son and I now own an automotive locksmith business. I don't do much work any more but keeping up with the business finances and book keeping is about all I want to do anymore with a bad back and other pains from all the abuse I put my body through over all those years.

Electrical and Software Engineer, and my main non-BBQ hobby is brewing beer. Shooting guns also. Just don't mix the beer with the guns and you will be ok.

As discussed in the podcast, I work as an analyst for a cabinet level agency, focusing mostly on travel administration and a small budget, as well as process improvement and various special projects.

My main hobby aside from cooking is currently a Star Trek game on my phone.

[ComfortablyNumb]

Well, let's see, in a previous life I owned a landscape business in San Diego, then worked for a public park in the SF Bay Area before becoming a chess instructor and working for UPS where I started off loading package cars, then delivering in lower Berkeley, and finally driving feeder (tractor/trailer). I bought a farm in NE Washington, moved up and for a few years hauled cryogenic gas from Trail, BC to Portland/Vancouver for a couple years. 'Retired' to farm and care for my father who had Alzheimer's Disease while working feeder for UPS in Spokane during peak season (Nov/Dec). Last year went back permanent with UPS for health benefits as our $6000 deductible policy now costs us $1300 a month.

Hobbies would be games (chess and dominoes) farming (vegetables, chickens, and hogs) old trucks (1950 F6 and 1956 F100) and brewing ale, although I haven't done that in a while.
