I didn't see "Graphic Designer" or "Gaffer" in that list so you've still got some work to do.It's more like "What *HAVEN'T* I done for a living".
Wait for it... Wait... Wait...I didn't see "Graphic Designer" or "Gaffer" in that list so you've still got some work to do.
On behalf of the few sSpent 42 years that I'll never get back, teaching chemistry to students who (mostly) didn't want to learn it..... Had I told the students that a B cost $600 and an A, $1200....I'd be a rich man.
Had a student once ask me if I could be bribed. "Of course. But if your savings/CDs don't have at least eight figures before the decimal point, don't try; I'd be insulted. I'm easy. I'm just not cheap."
In my career I saved countless lives. Kept the idiots out of med school, dental school, etc. You're welcome.
My high school chemistry teacher had the biggest impact on my life. So thanks on behalf of your students who should have been more grateful to you.Spent 42 years that I'll never get back, teaching chemistry to students who (mostly) didn't want to learn it.....

You've worked 36 years, retire asap as life can change instantly.At present, Electrical Engineer (projects) for a Glass company. Very difficult and why I have been absent for so long - time only for rest after work. That is hopefully changing.

I was a SPG-55B mod 9 tech on USS Worden first tour. We shot a couple of those. That was a system for hardcore techs!I stuck with the rocket theme.

This early test round had temperature sensitive paint (the multi colored stripes) to look at aerodynamic heating.
It wasn't until after the test flight that we noticed a required 30 minute soak at temperature for the paint to react.
Actual flight time was around 100 seconds.....OOpsie.
Too bad. I went to a rich suburban school called Wheaton Central high school. There were like 444 in the class. The vast majority were going to college and beyond. Were very respectful of the teachers. Sure there were a few jerks but the vast majority dropped out as soon as they could but weren't missed.Prfesser, your opening comment - "Spent 42 years that I'll never get back, teaching chemistry to students who (mostly) didn't want to learn it....." - made me smile because it reminded me of my brother's experience. He's older than me, and when he was in high school I remember him talking a lot about how much he wanted to be a high school science teacher. He went on to study science education in college, and underwent his first student teaching experience late in his sophomore year. He absolutely hated it. The high school students he was trying to teach were rude, disrespectful, and clearly wanted nothing to do with what he was trying to teach them. In less than a month he said "Screw this!" and changed majors to something that had nothing to do with teenagers. Probably the best life decision he ever made.
