Hey, if Ted wants anybody to shoot his birds or catch his fish, I'm sure I could squeeze a trip or two into my schedule.  ;-)

I was a instrument maintenance mechanic for the company that made alka seltzer and one-a-day vitamins.  I am retired now.
Fisherman's Prayer
   I pray that I may live to fish
          Until my dying day.
And when it comes to my last cast,
       I then most humbly pray:
When in the Lord's great landing net
           And peacefully asleep,
      That in His mercy I be Judged
              BIG ENOUGH TO KEEP.

My brothers and I own and operate :) limestone rock quarries in Central Missouri. We are a family business that appreciates the guys that bust their butts with us - scratching out a living in the mine.
What town are you in? I thought maybe I was the only one from Missouri on this site. Glad to see that I am not alone. bear

I work in display advertising sales for the Winnipeg Free Press. It pays the bills and allows my weekends to be free to fish, so I can't complain.

There are grants out there that will purchase fishing equipment for your students some schools in NY like Cobleskill have fishing as part of their PE.  ;D

I work in the oil fields on Alaska's North Slope (Prudhoe Bay) as a field mechanic and roustabout.  Two weeks on - two weeks off.  When I'm home I substitute teach if the fishing is slow!

I will again be doing quality assurance soon.  Much has changed in the past year for me.  I was demoted to the bottom of the ladder 6 weeks after becoming a production supervisor last year.  I started back at the bottom of the barrell and have again worked my way up.  This time however I will stay in that dept until I decide it is time to move on to a different company.  I learned some jobs just aren't worth the money.
