I am a fleet mechanic for Woodstock, IL. Its where they filmed the Bill Murray movie "Groundhog Day". I maintain anything with an engine, wheels, and anything broken/in need of repair. As an example, today I put a new recoil on a string trimmer, changed batteries on a backhoe, trained 2 guys on the operation of our large front end loader, and am currently taking the trans out of a cop car to replace the flex plate. My worst enemy is our snow plows... They are big rust buckets. Nothing comes off without a torch. We have even used the torch to put a part back on... :ack: We replace oil pans on those once every 2-3 years or so because they rot out so bad. Gotta love the rust belt. :fs1:

 

For kicks and fun money I am a Paid on Call Firefighter/EMT.

I do industrial maintenance for a company that sandblast and paints military vehicle parts.

I do a lot of metal fab and welding there and a ton of electrical work.

480V 3 Phase :idea:

 

They pay me hardly nothing, but they hired me with no maintenance experience.

We hand build everything that goes into our plants so it's great for learning almost all aspects

of industrial maintenance. That makes it very interesting and makes me love the work.

Also provides me time to work on a certian truck with very nice tools :D :yes: :chillin:

THE REV is awesome!

 

I am a Utility Forester for the local power company. That means I walk the power lines and plan/record what vegetation needs trimmed/removed. This requires me to talk with many home owners who think I am satin, so I also consider myself a customer care representative.
