What do you do to pay the bills?

[Nalyk]

I was wondering what kind of demographic AT has regarding occupations. Like for instance if most folk here work in the tech industry or if compys are a hobby and straight up for enjoyment/leisure. Or a little bit of column A and a little bit of column B. Regardless I'll start.

I am a winemaker.

I had benefits once for killing the littl,es but the co-pay for having a baby was terrible...


And no you can't have free wine, I only get a 40% discount as it is...so no soup for j00!

I enjoy collecting my SS check every month. To think when I was a young whipper snapper I railed at paying into SS. What was I thinking.

Just cause I make the stuff doesn't mean I own the place. I make another guy's wine for him, he gets all the credit, but I get to have all the fun. And I don't have to deal with the public, and granted, I do have free wine given too me on a fairly regular basis, but usually those are only under certain circumstances. Like if we're bottling and we pulled too many lab samples or something. If I want fancy, labeled bottles for gifts and stuff, I have to shell out cash just like everyone else.

I'm a mechanical engineer by college education, but I also do some programming, some electronic design, some machine servicing, and eventually I might also do some optical design.
