| I'm also a programmer so probably similar to eboost.
Guess I wish I was more similar to PHISHMAN, though, but I suppose that I'd have to upgrade my "equipment". I'm hoping that Shimano will come out with some stiffer "rods" (ha ha ha) |

This weekend I'm in Minnetonka with a host of other industry folks for Kolo's World record attempt to catch the most fish ever in a 24 hour period. OFM records all the necessary video and still images for Guinness WR requirements and streams the event live. Some crazy stuff happens on the dock after midnight at Maynards. Next week, it's an FLW over in Escanaba and an MWS in Green Bay. |

In other words, I'm expected to try and cure both AIDS and Cancer, at the same time, all with a push of a single button on keyboard. At least...that's how much importance and emphasis clients put upon their marketing/design/product needs....you'd think it was so important and needed so fast, that, the expectations of stopping the rotation of the planet Earth would be far easier. I'm sure any other graphic designers can relate to what I'm saying...
Oh. But this job isn't as simple as a "9 - 5" job.
Paid a nominal salary for a 40 hour work week, when often times, you'll most likely work anywhere from 50 to 80 hours a week at times. Like musky fishing not having any set rules...this line of work, doesn't have any set normal hours.

Don't worry, doc. I still like you!
At some point, all of these can happen between 9-5 for me:
*Health Care Agency Administrator/Insurance Agent (moderately fun)
*High School Basketball Ref (very fun)
*Co-Owner of Badwater Baits (wish it was the only one on my list some days!)
*Father of the 3 month and 3 year old "Musky Sisters"---I'm predicting they'll be making their first appearance on stage at the winter show seminars in 2020. |

I have my masters in architecture and worked professionally for the last 12 years at architecture firms... Currently at a firm called Peterssen/Keller in Minneapolis. But I can't actually say 'Architect' without feeling a pang of guilt until I get around to finishing all 7 exams (about four hours a piece, a month or two of studying for each one... but at least they're expensive. So that's nice.) Pretty common in my profession, though, for it to take a really long time to get around to being licensed. There isn't much incentive; not much pay, but a lot more liability.
I guess I'll keep doing this, though, until I figure out how to make 'Offensive Tackle Co.' a profitable enterprise... which would probably mean having to start producing lures to sell, rather than hoarding them all myself or giving them away! Might take awhile. Although unlike James with Tackle Industries, I DO have a six pack....usually sitting right next to me while I'm airbrushing lures. |

Location: Mayer, MN | Nothing I ever thought I would be doing.
I work for Beckhoff Automation in Burnsville, MN. We are the North American headquarters, based in Verl, Germany. Industrial PCs, control panels, embedded PCs, servo drives, servo motors, software, etc. After 2.5 years in the warehouse, I had the opportunity to move into the industrial PC and panel repair department. Learning on the fly and it is fun! Fast growing global company, cool stuff and great people.
Background is Landscape Architecture after graduation from Purdue (Drew Brees era, Saturdays were a lot of fun!), that was my role for 8 years out of college, commercial development, lots of municipal work, designing parks/trails, etc. I worked with civil engineers and land surveyors and loved it. Anyone in this line of work knows how things have been going nationally for designers since 2008 or so, no good, very little work, monster layoffs.
M1st is an electic group for sure, lot of intelligent fishermen here.

Yes cows can bite. But they like to bump, kick, and step on you more than bite. You don't want to be a farmer this year! I wish mother nature would pee all over us right now! |

That is silly. I don't think having money and good equipment is a handicap when chasing muskie. It is not necessary, but it certainly doesn't hurt. BR |

Location: Maple Grove, MN | I think some of the people with good jobs may actually fish the least. High paying jobs usually come at a cost of more years of school and long hours on the job. Its tough to catch fish when one is not on the water.
Good luck all. |

Location: Maple Grove, MN | Sled, I had a of job that paid a lot of money, well into six figures, but I walked away because it was way to demanding. Working 70-80 hour weeks means no time for fishing and little time for family. Lots of cash means nothing when all one does is work. I've turned down a number of jobs just like it for that reason. My current job doesn't pay as well and I may be running the same boat the rest of my life, but at least I'll be fishing.

Nothing wrong with that. The only way I'll ever get another boat is if i get divorced and find a rich girlfriend. :D |

| Just graduated. Another Mechanical Engineer.
Worked with my hands for quite a while after high school, but I wanted to be able to still use them to continue fishing muskies when I get to retire someday. I also needed more money for muskies.

Tried my hand at guiding for a couple years. Found out that guiding muskies is hard work versus lots of fun. Muskie fishing should be enjoyable so I quit, best move I have made. |
