Im sitting here watching 2 guys run a core drilling truck. They are dirlling holes in the ground 75 feet down and taking samples all the way. This is all the prelim work for the new hanger the Southwest is building. They have what looks to be water coming out of thier skin Im so glad I have this job. Internet and a TV to keep me company and a fridge with some Cokes we snagged off the check aircraft last night.

What are you an air traffic controller?

Quality Controll. It don't say Southwest until I say it says Southwest

Dude, you just described what I do. I'm a geologist. I had no idea other people looked at my job and thought YUCK.

I'm going to go sit in a corner and rock myself while I moan...

Hmm, is that a geologist's euphemism?

If you live a very actice free time then deskjob is the way to go. If you just sit on your ass at work and sit on your ass at home do me a favor and put me in your will.

I tried to work as a personal trainer one year while training for a ironman. Holy cow that dam near killed me. I prefer the sit on my ass job now and then go run 10-20 miles after work.

If I gotta run it better be to catch the Ice Cream Truck Me and working out just dont get along , aint nothing wrong with being 5'2" and 275 LBS is there? Actually I climb up and down stairs on the tail stands all friggn day when we have a check aircraft in. I also get a ton of walking in going from bay to bay checking jobs in work. Just today was an rarity with no aircraft in my assigned area. Just the contractor drilling holes in the floor getting prep work for the new joint.
