I am a Smart 3D Administrator.

Smart 3D is a 3D-modeling software that is used, generally by large engineering companies, for designing power plants, chemical plants, nuke plants, offshore platforms... that type of thing.

I just keep the system running so that engineers and designers can get the things designed and construction folks can get them built.

need to become 'hip' or 'hot' enough that one of the big boys comes to dump money on you...I used to work for Constellation (I'm not a bad person...we were bought by them...and sold like 10yrs later)- seen it happen - it's like the lottery!!
Aaaaannd...a few years later you can take all that $$...start up another brewery!

If that happens I may pull the trigger on a copy at the store, they're got to be at least one 9.6 candidate as they sit in their present condition.

I've been a night watchman, a bookkeeper, a math tutor, a door to door salesman, a Paralegal, an Auto Claims Adjuster, an Auto Appraiser, and an 8th grade math teacher in training. Most recently, starting in 2017, I've been a liablity due to medical issues. Maybe you could say I'm also an artist, although I don't create enough art and no one would ever pay money for it, so that's a stretch. Still fun though.

Retired Air Force, 2014. I’ve had a few jobs since then, from operating a forklift in a cold storage warehouse to running a small railroad materials recycling yard. Hard to adjust from a military aircrew career to the civilian world.

Monday, I start training with my local county Sheriff’s office to work at the detention facility in town.

I don’t know what I want to do when i grow up. 🤣🤣🤣
