I am a freight handler for a distribution center of a company. Before this job, I was a ship welder for two years, before that I was a mechanic for 8 years.

I love hard labor, never keeps me bored.

Though....if any of us won the lottery, would we still look at a fz8 to buy one lol

What are level 5 finishes?

Level 5 finish can be done two ways depending on size but most of my jobs are big rooms so i spray a product like patch compond but it's already thinned out to go through my sprayer. It self levels and gives the wall 20 mills thickness and a smooth surface with no sanding required. Then use a high quality paint from SW and spray what colors are desired and it looks smooth like butter. Not cheap by any means but its awesome looking once done.

Hey cambo, why is there an unmarked work van outside my house every time I've left and come back today after I made the CIA/NSA reference? Did I blow your cover? Should I offer the guys inside doughnuts? There's this awesome doughnut shop down the street called Bosa Doughnuts, I'm sure your buddies will like it.

IAM Machinist, it's a glorified term for railroad parts changer. It is pretty cool doing a piston/con-rod for locomotive when a single cylinder can be 710 cubic inches.

lmfao dude...nope not me...I wish I did something cool like that! No, in my day job I sit, for 14 hours a day, in a windowless vault and stare at 6 monitors. and if something blinks red I click on it to make it not blink red anymore. and then I go back to my pizza. or doughnut. or poptart. or coke zero...whatever I'm snacking on at any given moment...and continue staring blankly at these computer screens. But on one particular computer screen I have youtube up. watching videos of everything from A-10s and special forces guys to professional downhill mountain bikers and motorcycle/car mechanics...and occasionally open up a new tab to do a quick google search: to see if they've invented a time machine yet. so I can start all over. They have not yet.

Also I refresh the fz8-forum page every 5 seconds to see if someone has responded to a thread I'm particularly following.

But coincidentally enough, I am a doughnut connoisseur and will add this "Bosa Doughnuts" to my bucket list. :tup:
