Day job
Re: Day job
I started doing electrical layout and design on custom sportfish boats when i got out of high school. Worked as an "apprentice" under one of the best @http://www.tributeboats.com
But as the economy has slowed down, so has the line of people waiting to have a 2 year custom boat built. Now, I'm doing service work, and working for a small 3 guy Marine Electronics company. Its slowly getting busier, but nothing like it was a few years ago.

I own a small window tinting business called American Window Tinting. I really like to stick the commercial and residential side of the business but its easy to say that automotive is my bread and butter.

[hijack]Probably the most famous pic of it:
There is a bunch of posts about it on POoR, they called it the "transformer" until the name that Cam gave it became known. Note the 5.0 SEFI engine? That wasn't an accident.[/hijack]

Re: Day job
I do traffic safety investigations for Caltrans. Studying areas of high accident concentrations and implementing various signage and striping measures to correct it.
We don't talk about it in these terms, but we try to make the highways safe enough for DUIs to make it home. Nothing we can do about desert racers though! HaHa!
