phade Posted December 25, 2022 Posted December 25, 2022 Left a large HCM company after 15 years in November as senior leader there in their insurance space. Now a senior leader of government and individual programs at one of the big health insurance carriers here in NY. It pays the bills. I do sell hunting gear too as a passion pursuit. Another 10 years and I hope to wind down the professional career and do that full time.

Meatball Posted December 25, 2022 Posted December 25, 2022 Started out with a family business of appliance repairs and sales. We closed that, and went to work for a plumber. Stayed there for 13yrs. COVID hit and I went to the Stewart's Shops convenience store chain. I'm a district maintenance man there now. I like to think of myself as a MacGyver type of guy.
Moho81 Posted December 25, 2022 Posted December 25, 2022 I’m a designer and project manager for a small architectural firm. Been in the profession since graduating college in 2004. After nearly 20 years I’m finally going for my professional license. To me it’s just a piece of paper and doesn’t mean you know any more or are any better of an architect because of it. I specialize in mixed use and multi-family buildings but also do the occasional commercial building or simple interior buildout. The firm I work for does everything though from residential additions to multi million dollar commercial buildings. mlamm24 1
