What's your profession?

U.S. Navy, Submarine Navigation Electronics Technician First Class. I have been active duty for 16 years. I have done two sea tours on two different class submarines (637 Sturgeon class, and 688i Los Angeles class). I've been all around the world including doing a tour in Afghanistan working hand in hand with the U.S. Army. I currently serve as a Field Service Engineer repairing Radars, Inertial Navigation Units, and Interior Communications.
I've been a car guy all my life, and have built a few toys myself over the years. As another poster mentioned, detailing clears my head and allows me to relax.

USAF 12 years.... combat search and rescue aerial gunner.... if you think detailing is a good escape you should try shooting a minigun or a .50 cal!

A little late but better late than never, Thank you gentlemen for your service!!!

:yourrock
 
Chemical fire suppression design engineer. Got interested in detailing because I decided to increase my stress level by buying old Porsches to fix up.
 
General purpose scientist but with speciality in chemical formulations - I'd much sooner be hitting the lab with a xxxxgeniser than hitting the panels with a rotary!!

edit: quite concerned that the forum filter is so blunt as to block out that particular string! Maybe it would be better if it blocked that string when used in isolation, not as part of a larger string.
 
I'm currently a DoD employee staring into the face of a 20% pay cut called "Sequestration"... If that happens I may end up being an ex-DoD employee and new auto detailing entrepreneur.
 
Currently I am a sales admin for business communication provider.
Waiting for the clientele list to grow to sustain full operation.
 
Judging from all the responses.....this forum is populated with some really smart people.

I am a merchandise manager for one of the largest department store in U.S.

My MIL was recently let go right in the middle of stage 4 cancer as a DOD sub contractor. All benefits cut. We as a family are helping pay the bills to continue needed treatment. Irony is she worked in experimental testing.

I'm sorry to hear that. My thoughts and prayers go out to your family. I find the irony in all the people I talk to who got into government jobs for the "security" it provides. Oh well, let me stop there before I get into full-on rant mode.

Actually just in my second semester at Virginia Tech, they have a satellite campus her in Northern Virginia. Taking statistics and financial framework for managers. Taking two math classes was a mistake.

I'm jealous of you being so far along.
