    I work on the sales desk of a local insurance company. I answer agent's questions about our fixed annuities. It is mind numbing and pretty much mundain. But, the salary is decent with good benefits. And at my age not much else is out there.

    I am also D. Micus' evil twin. That should not need any explanation.

    My title is Access Center Clinician. I perform mental health and substance abuse assessments, adults and children, for Kent County CMH. We operate 24/7/365. I'll be moving to days soon which makes me and my family very happy. After 5 years commuting from Lansing to Grand Rapids, moved to N. Kent Co. last August. The Rogue now qualifies as my "home river". Am now looking to try my hand at steelhead on a fly rod. I'd been fishing the upper Manistee and the AuSable pretty hard the previous 3 years. I am looking forward to the Michigan Fish-in this coming August.

    Chris works for the CIA; first what we do, then what are we reading, then what's for dinner? Next he'll want fishing spots and favorite flies to use.... I'm keeping an eye on him. And another thing, he says he's from Canada, but never ends a sentence with "'eh?"....Somethings fishy here for sure...

    Gee, I thought I had already responded in this thread. Guess not.
    Anyway, I'm a retired high school science teacher. No, I didn't have those long summers off. I had to find a summer job in all but two of my ~35 years of teaching. The other two I was in school. I also coached soccer and tennis at various times.
    If I had it to do over, I'd probably do the same thing again. Teaching doesn't make you rich, but it can be a rewarding occupation none the less.

    I work for the Foreign Language & Literature department at a state university. The language I speak? Computer and electronics. Working for the state means 2 things:
    1. I'm paid below market value
    2. Each year sees me doing less of what I was hired to do. They just keep adding more "responsibilities" but not adding to the paycheck. But now that I've got more vacation time than the wife can use in a year, I may get to go fishing.



    Yea, I stole that, ain't I a good little pirate?
