1st gen owner occupations?

Just the other day i was thinking, I wonder what all the 1st gen guys do when they arent working on the car and trying to pay for the mods and up keep??

ill start. Im 21 and work at a Tool & Die shop, just finished a apprenticship. We specailize in the automotive industry, mainly driver and passenger airbag covers, and wheel covers. I run a 3 axis Enshu CNC and program with Surfcam software. I also do the welding repairs, its mainly little stuff, got to use a microscope to see it and use .015" diameter filler wire.

I'm 53 and the chief information officer at a community hospital- responsible for all the computer systems and software. I ride motorcycles (road and dirt), read books (fantasy & science fiction mostly), shoot guns, raise Cocker Spaniel puppies, canoe, hike and work on our weekend/retirement house on the Blue Ridge Parkway. I have stock '83 LE that I'm reviving (sat for 13 years).

Web designer and programmer, network/computer consultant, and full time student in college. I am 19 years old too. To answer the question, what do we do when we are not working on the cars or getting the funds to work on them, I would have to say nothing or sleeping. That is all I do.

I tell them I have to frisk them, but then I reassure them by telling them not to worry because I am a Doctor.
