Default What do you all do for a living?

Just curious to know what you all do to bring home the bacon. I think there is a perception that people who own Corvettes must be very well heeled to be able to afford one (or more), which we all know just is not true, but still I think many people believe that to be true.

Me? Well I breed corn snakes and sell off the babies. I think you all are going to be pretty hard pressed to beat that one on the Weird-o-meter...

I have worked for our county government for the past 28 years. I started at an entry level position in my department, and I have progressed up to the Assistant Director. I have a staff of close to 60 people under me.

I am a dentist. I would have given my right arm to have a vette years ago but raising a family and paying the school debts came first. I am getting my first vette in about two weeks. Talk about delayed gratification. Prior to becoming a dentist, I was a high school biology teacher and a phlebotomist (blood drawing).

I'm a CPA (Car Parking Attendant - among other things) and I'm forever working to keep the Federal budget unbalanced!

Remember, according to Gallagher, "if "pro" is the opposite of "con" then "Progress" must be the opposite of "Congress"!

Well, I'm in the insurance business in the Keys and just purchased my first vette. I'm actually retired from the carrier side of the business and now just a simple agent and a lot happier too. The car's great with the only problem being I have to drive to the mainland to find a long strip of pavement.

Got the reply. I'm in and out as I've got offices in Bonita Springs too. I'll be around either on the Harley or in the vette. Lovin' my toys these days.
