What do you do for a living?

[DAL767-400ER]

I am sensing bitterness.

When you get fvcked, especially financials-wise, it's fully understandable. The reason learned, that I, or rather my father, also had to learn, is DTA - Don't Trust Anybody, especially as far as money goes, you'll only end up on your back without your money.

To get some money for my expensive way of living,I am a manager/ planner on a small trucking company .
Before, I ve been a truckdriver as well for more then 17 years.

Nowadays ,I sent my 15 truckers on the road, to 6 different countries and try to arrange some cargo for the returntrips as well.

So, nothing in the aviation industry.

I'm a live sound engineer and bassist (depending on what people pay me to do). I get to do a reasonable number of gigs abroad so I get paid to travel, which is good!

Logistics for me, however sometimes I get the impression we should be uploading here as a paid job.

I was just about to throw in the towel and work a non-aviation job until I turn 18 in July, but I thought, "Why not stay in the industy?"

Sure enough, I found a job loading and unloading DHL(Well, its actually ABXair, but thats another story) DC-9-30/40s and 767s and the occasional A300. Pay is $13.84/hour and no bennifits, other than working around -9s, which is the only bennifit I need.

They will probably hire me, I just need inform them of the times I will have to be in my summer math class for college, which I will find out tommorow, and see if that sits well with them. While part-time, it is an on-call position.

Is it for the airline or for a contract company? (feel free to PM if you don't want to post it)
