I have done work for medtronic as a machinist on may occasions. My neighbor is a quality engineer at medtronic as well. Small world! |

Ditto, Worked with OT8 before he went on his own. We make a bunch of the medtronic implants you might be talking about here in MN. Small world indeed. Can't wait for the fall musky bite! |

| Good grief, doctors, lawyers, rocket scientist, etc. there has to be at least one bum on here that fishes for musky. Ok, I'm that guy. Well I am now since I was laid off 3 years ago after 17 years at an Aluminum impact extrusion plant where I was the tool crib manager. Before that I spent 20 years in the Navy on submarines. |

Location: nappanee IN | i'm the only guy without a title in front of my name
 . i work at a cabinet shop and after 6 1/2 years i get the week of the 4th
off and christmas week off.it's owned by an amish guy who is more concerned about his bottom line than paying us for 2000 cabinets a day! our pay is the same for 2000
as it was for 1200 a day, and it's a piece rate shop.
so when you guys talk about your trips up north i get very jealous, haven't done it yet and prolly never will.course i only have a high school education also. and been a grunt for other people all my 40 years of working. can't retire so i'll just keep working |
