    That's pretty awesome. If you have ever ripped apart an Eaton clutch you most likely have worked with parts my dad designed and patented. He works at Eaton and is an engineer for the clutch department. He has several patents for bearings and several other clutch parts he designed himself.

    My job isn't as awesome though. I just mow lawns and work part-time for a land-scaping company. I only make about $100-$120 a week though. I guess that's not bad for a part time job. I only work about 10 hours a week.

    I am a business development specialist for the #1 KIA Volume Sales leader in the northeast region of USA. I work with customers ascertaining their needs and set appointments for them to come in and buy cars. I do very well, I make about 500 per week flat pay then the bonus checks every 4 weeks that come in and BAM, I am no longer broke lol If I get 40 cars out this month, I will be somewhat happy. If i hit 50 cars, I am going to California for 2 weeks over the summer.

    My favorite car here is the 2016 KIA Sorento, and the 2015 Optima SX-L. Certainly great cars, made well, and boy are they fast!

    Well I am technically on the way to earning my engineering degree, just in the field of computer systems. Table collapsed at work, I explained that the table was upright, then gravity won, trust me I'm an engineering student. Boss was not happy.

    I work at a t-mobile call center. The job absolutely sucks, higher ups in the company treat you as expendable, you get no freedom of any kind, and if you stray off the script by a single word youll be fired. The pay is pretty good, starting at 12 dollars an hour, plus all sorts of bonuses after youve been there for 6 months. The only problem is...im certainly not staying there for 6 months. Screw dat! Every once in a while you get a caller who actually treats you like a human, those are my favorite callers. The rest of the callers are either total rectums, or have an IQ of -70. Or both. Just go watch "I get this call every day" by NerdCubed and you will understand.

    I work for bnsf railway as an engineer of maintenance of way and new construction. I travel quite a bit which I don't and do like. The pay is pretty good. If anyone heard of that oil tanker derailment and fire a week or so ago, I worked on the track repair crew. 56 hours of continuous service haha. Going to be a big paycheck

    As you probably all know I work for Eitzen Maritime services and Eitzen Chemical. About 2 days ago I was on the ship "B Gas Champion" delivering LPG from Saudi Arabia. I love my job. Get about 47000 a year so I'm comfy. Here are some pics. It was originally called "sigas champion" B-GAS-CHAMPION-01.jpg SIGAS_CHAMPION.jpg B_GAS_CHAMPION_421747.940x1000.jpg B-GAS-CHAMPION-01.jpg

    I sit at the bar all day and try to communicate without getting my butt kicked. It does not pay well.

    Aren't you like 15 though?
    Shouldn't you be in school or something?
    I mow yards. I'll probably get a real job somewhere after I get my license.

    I am a snackstand assistant for a World Football Federation team called the Lehigh Valley Storm. I only get paid $2 dollars an hour, but for a 3 hour game, I'm fine. I was hired last game, when the storm won. It might sound boring, but it is fun for me. I get to take people's orders, and watch the game at the same time.

    The only flaw, is that sometimes we need to take an "ice run" to get more ice for the cooler. that bucket is like 30 pounds, and we need other people to lift the ice bucket!

    Otherwise, everything is good! (and i get free Pepsi!)

    I vaguely recall posting my job here, but I guess not.

    I fix nice cars for a living.

    Some of them are DrowsySam approved. (There's a problem in this engine bay. I'll PayPal $5AUD to whoever points it out first)
    edit: some people are a little dense, and are oddly desperate for a fiver. Identify the issue and briefly explain. A circle on the image is not enough. I'm not handing out $5 because some genius circled every friggin' part in the image. Jesus Christ.

    And some of them are really nice.

    It really goes without saying that circling the entire engine bay does not constitute finding the problem.
