    They draw up the plans and I made sure all the contractors are building them that way - large commercial sites - everything from the dirt on day one to the concrete, steel and whatever at the end

    oh yeah and bridges, i go the plant where the bridge spans are made and make sure they are 100% correct

    I own a rock quarry and concrete business so if you need some concrete give us a shout. :lol:

    That's an interesting thread, I was curious too.
    I'm an attorney (seems that we're a few out there already).
    General practice but mostly criminal cases.

    Indeed !
    I believe proceedings have little in common, but it seems we are basically dealing with the same kind of people on a day to day basis, although we wouldn't be standing at the same spot in Court, would we ? ;)

    Graphic Designer for print and web. I'm totally bored with it now and work has slowed down a lot since the recession started. I'll pack it in sometime this year.

    'crack cocaine' freebase form of cocaine and I never know if you are teasing ;)

    It's a tough one to let go of especially for a drinker

    How are you doing? A lot of printers are really struggling over here. I've lost about 6 print suppliers in the last 3 years and a few of those were big 24 hour companies.

    We are selling up and moving abroad, hopefully by October. I've no idea what we'll do out there.

    I got out of the print n design business about 5 years ago... I just thought that digital and online would render it an out-of-date business... look at it now, newspapers sales have slumped, kindles, etc...

    I'm now involved in digital mapping and GIS MapInfo systems for the government here... I miss the hustle n bustle of printing n stuff, but this job is mega secure with it being a statutory role in a governmental environment...

    hope things turn out well for you Nuffing.

    That's what I used to do before my accident and now I am looking into changing directions. I just don't know what direction!
    I worked in printing & publishing for 15 years, and both industries are nose-diving here.
