I hope that doesnt come across as being nosey. Im just really curious at how diverse the group is. Im 38 and been with Pacific Gas and Electric for 20 years. Distribution Operator. I manage the power lines in most of Silicon Valley. Married 9 years and have 4.5 kids! :eek2:

I'm lucky enough to be a student. So now real job for me right now, or anytime soon hopefully.

im a 21 yr old, ex student, i got a football scholarship to southwest mo, and went to southeast, and then went to a community college. schools not really for me. right now im a painter, and yes the ls is my painters "truck". im looking everyday for a new job but u need experience everywhere but no one will give it to u. SO anyone is stl hiring look my way. and ur not being noisey i was wondering this as well.

Pretty cool idea Dart, should be an interesting array of answers!

I for one actually am 24 and have two online businesses, one being a Golf Store, the other is an Equestrian site that my fiance and I both run.
(She Designs im the Coder! haha)

Those have really taken off well in the past year, so they keep things interesting most of the time! My 9-5 day job is another company I helped start and co-own that specializes in designing specific online marketing strategies for various types of online stores and websites.

(After all the hard work the LS was a little paid in full bonus for myself! :D)

I'm a 22 year old property manager in Ottawa, Ontario... I'm also a university student studying Law and Political Science... I like my job, hate my school... But almost done, so I'm happy.

I am actually interviewing at Quicken on monday as a web mortgage banker, I work for Carrol Bollo real estate company, and i'll leave my other job out.. ;)

I teach! 23 years - 6th Grade Expert on Puberty! Nice seeing threads like this. LvC's only a little over 1 year old and threads like this use to be more common. But now that we have many more new members and the LS crowd is growing it's good to see threads like this come back. :Beer

24 Years old and serving my country...Let's hear it for the Air Force.

Your avatar is just to funny!

Definately!!! - I see a vision of Deere Green paint with Deere yellow accents!!! haha

Cableguy!

I am the owner opertor of Lincolnmotorsport as well as IMR Graphic Concepts. We do all major work on all makes and models of vehicles here at the shop, but specialize in Lincolns. IMR is our graphics and web/logo design company. There we do everything from full on websites, menus, business cards, logos, even printing.

I am 25 yrs old and am currenty in an "early retirement." I quit my job back home which I had since I was in college, the job got old and it wasn't what I wanted to do for a living. I have been out in Indiapolis looking for a new career so if anyone knows of anything in this area you should let me go. On a side note I went to the Indy Speedway today to watch some Indy cars pratice, I must it was very impressive. Loud and fast. Awesome...

I am 25 y/o and am the Manager of the Pepsi Co Packaging lab at our R&D Facility. Been an interesting road, started after college with Tropicana. and now am back in chicago (where I grew up)

Since were talking about careers, how did eveyone get their careers. as i said b4 im a painter and i hate it. what should i do to get a career besides schooling, people wont give u 2 secs. without a degree. anyone know any openings in the st. louis area, willing to do anyhting besides paint. ive checked all the job sited and nothing. is anyone a car salemen if so pm me, i have some ?s.

I'm 29 years old, married 4 years. No kids yet, but do have a great Boxer (might as well be a kid :) ). Graduated from NC State University with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. I manage a group of process engineers for Milliken and Company (http://www.milliken.com) as well as help manage and market my wife's interior design business.

i'm a university student taking political science and business admin. my main source of income is a part-time job in an emergency room where quite frankly, i'm a doctor's bitch. on the side i co-owned a company which is now gone, i'm thinking of starting another. i also want to get into real estate this summer as i hope to get into law school and become a real estate lawyer.

I guess most of you think I do the LS Koncepts thing full time...Wrong! I actually work as a Facilities Manager/Environmental, Health and Safety Officer for a robotics company named Remotec (www.remotec-andros.com (http://www.remotec-andros.com)). Our parent company is Northrop Grumman which is the second largest defense contractor for the military. I have an Industrial Engineering degree and have been working in my field for close to 15 years. I started LS Koncepts only on a whim. It just got bigger as I added more aftermarket products for the LS. Will it last? Who knows but I have a great career and love both jobs I'm doing right now.

I'm a lawyer.

'snotmydaddy's, it's a shame you're in MO, I need a painter...
I just sort of fell into my career. I never wanted to go to law school, but I was at Arizona State getting a political science degree and soon to be married, and it sort of dawned on me that there was no way I'd ever be able to provide for a family with a political science degree. Someday, I hope to find a way to make a living with it, but for now and the foreseeable future I'm stuck.

Don't feel like you need to go to college to make a living. Nothing wrong with trade school, and there are still plenty of ways to get through life without a degree. Do what you like.

didjital|, what's your golf web site?

Hey man all I can say is don't give up looking for something you want. I am in the same boat as you. I do have a college degree from the University of Iowa, I've been out of school a year and half and still haven't found anything what I supposedly went to school for. The college degree really hasn't helped to much so far. If you don't mind people and dealing with money I suggest getting a job at a bank. There are many different ways to go, you might have to be a teller for a while but growth is always a possibility within banking.

I am a part time college student and a manager for American Eagle. I am 26 y/o and married with a 4 month old little girl.

well Im a student so for now Im selling tires and alway looking for a new job. selling tires sucks, why do people think every thing is my falt. I just sell the sh!t, I used to work on cars, but the $$ selling is a little better and a lot less busted fingers. some day I would like to own an outfitter, backbacking, hunting, fishing, ext... that is what I live for(and cars).

congrats:)

didjital|, what's your golf web site?

You can take a look at our oldest site at www.customizedgolfballs.com which is what we got our start with HOWEVER!!- it got a new face lift, more products and is actually about to re-launch by the end of this week with tons of new products! So you can see basically the products in the current site are rare, since we took out all discontinued gear and left the most popular balls.

Our speciality are laser inscribed custom logo and personalized balls and mostly in larger quantities. Perhaps LVC can personalize some balls and put names on the other sides of the logos! I don't know about printing the lincoln logo though i'd have to check on the licensing.

By the end of this week, or mid next it'll be an entirely new site, and new product lines, check it out!

P.S One interesting bit of information most don't know about and i'll throw it in here as my useless fact o' the day -- But Jaguar also makes horse saddles not just cars! (We sell them on the other site).

Golf...did someone say GOLF!! Oh my! That is my first passion! Forget the LS and just let me play golf!! I've played ever since I was in the 5th grade. Great looking site for golf balls. Have you checked out www.4gea.com (http://www.4gea.com)? That place is awesome and I spend about as much time there as here.

Maybe we can work a deal on some golf balls like Pro V1's or something. I'm a 4 handicap so I must not work much huh? :Beer

I browse 4GEA fairly often!

Yeah we can pretty much get any balls, right now we carried only a few manufacturers as we started so we didn't get ahead of ourselves, but the system is down pat and warehousing will be in place to order and store it all, so the new site / look is the first step toward that phase 2 !!

P.S - A 4 handicap is pretty dangerous in a money per hole in match play! I see the NationWide Tour then PGA in your future! hehe.

What town do you work in and where you from Putter? When I lived in Iowa City I took my LS to Carosel only one time and never took it back there, sorry I didn't like the work done or the service people. Got better treatment at Lynch in Mt. Vernon. And the Dealer out here in Indy couldn't be better.

I am 29 years old with some college. I work at the headquarters for the parent company that owns Dr Pepper. I like / dis-like. Pay is good so cant really complain. Pays for all of toys.

When I started my undergrad I was a Bio Chemistry major thinking of getting into medicine. Was doing ok, then got involved helping out (ok Dave and Bryan I'm waiting for something on this) with Special Olympics and had a blast.

After spending a month shadowing my old family doctor I found out that I loved the science and the thrill of working with the guts of people. Got to put my hands in a living human, held the organs of another it was wild, I could not stand the attitudes of the patients. Thought it's not worth it the patient would drive me crazy.

Went back to school the following semester and talked to my advisor and said I am not sure I want to continue in this field. He asked me what I wanted to do and I said I really not sure. So there was a Prof walking buy and he said here go with this guy. I said sure ok, and found my self preparing to be a teacher.

Love it do not regret ever becoming a teacher.

27 yr young, going on 18..lol.. engaged to be married exact date to be determined still, but work as a mechanical engineer for a supplier for Caterpillar and for few other tractor companies such as Elliot, Tramac, and Agco, we don't do much for John Deere, mostly all caterpillar which is Better... lol.. just kidding Bboyd, Cat doesn't make ag. tractors no more, left that to john deere. Like what i do keeps me busy, sometimes too busy when we have growing years like the past 2 years but when economy slows down is when it hurts for this type of job cause no one wants to buy heavy machinery for some reason.. lol ..

I work for the largest Caterpillar dealer in Florida. I have been in the industry for 26 years. At this branch 13 years. I'm a trainer for Parts. So it can be alot of fun trianing people that don't have a clue about parts, or even an IC engine for the most part. But it's a great place to work. If you have to work. I'd rather be palying Golf too.http://www.ringpower.com/

I am 44 years old. Graduated from Diesel School in 1978. Started out as an auto mechanic, moved to millwrighting, and then due to an auto accident I turned my hobby, computers, into a full time money making gig. I am now the CSO of the Digestive Disease Institute. I have traveled the world setting up wireless networks and breaking into other peoples supposedly secure networks. I have met some of the Saudi Royals as well as the Royal Family of Dubai. I have two kids. One 21 and the other 5. Single father for the past 12 years, even though that is about to change.

The thing that keeps me coming back to this list is the diversity of the people who are on the list. Lots of opinions, very few attitudes.

Staff Sergeant, United States Air Force. My actual job title is as an Integrated Avionics Technician on aircraft. However, for the last three years I have worked as a Communications Support Team member for Headquarters Air Mobility Command's (HQ AMC) Tanker Airlift Control Element (TALCE). A Tanker Airlift Control Element is a deployed Air Mobility Command organization established at fixed, en route, and deployed locations where AMC operational support is non-existent or insufficient. The TALCE provides continuing on-site management of AMC airfield operations including command and control, communications, aerial port services, maintenance, security, weather, and intelligence -- those critical elements needed to ensure safe and highly efficient air base for all tanker and airlift operations, A TALCE is composed of mission support elements from various units and deploys in support of contingency/emergency relief operations on both a planned and "no-notice" basis. At my Current job I perform a variety of services including:

High Freqency Radio (like a HAM radio) program manager
Director of Mobility Forces Communications Support
Security Forces Augmentee (Military Police)
Hazardous Materials Waste Manager
Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) technician
Power Generation Technician
Network Systems Administrator
FCC Certified Radio Repair Technician

I work two part time jobs right now, one as an office manager for a construction company and I am also a waitress at night. I just graduated college Saturday with a Bachelor of Science degree in business banking and finance. So now I am looking for a good full time job.

Bryan and I are very good friends and enjoy getting together when ever possible

I live halfway between Iowa City and West Branch. I work at West Branch Ford, obviously in West Branch.

We only have 4 techs and 1 lube dude out there, so its pretty easy to know who's working on your car. Pretty laid back with a 60$/hr shop rate as opposed to Iowa City's over 90$/hr.

How long is left on your drag car project? I read the site a while ago and its looking like a mean car.

I'm 24, Engaged and no kids (thank god). I have an Associates in Electronics and am 7 classes from a BS in computer science. I'm currently working as a mechanical/electrical engineering tech for TI Automotive/Walbro. Spend alot of time doing product development of fuel pumps.

I'm a 45 year old designer, I run a Catia CAD station designing automotive inspection fixtures. The company I works for builds gages to check any automotive panel, sheet metal or plastic. I started building gages in 1979. In 1983 I was Crew Leader/CMM operator and I built the gages to check the 'A' pillar on the original Mark VII's. An interesting note the fixture was a dual purpose gage for the Mark VII and the T-bird. The Mark VII post had more holes to run and mount wiring(suprize,suprize) but the form was identical.

I am 28 years old. Married 8 years to my best friend, with a 7 year old son, and an 12 day old baby girl (we took a little break in between, huh?). I own a multimedia production company that i started a few years back. I produce TV / Video programming, create websites, DVDs, streaming media, etc. Kinda rough seeing as I live in rural area, but I am hoping to get more freelance work from people / businesses in larger areas. Anybody require any of my services? :)

28 and I do what I’m told to do. (Telecom guy for a local government agency)

I'm a 16 year old who currently works at Taco Bell AKA Toxic Hell :) and details cars for fun, and in the summer I do construction work with my godfather. And is looking for a new car after I got rear ended on 4/20.

I'm 20, drive a Lincoln Mark VIII - my second Lincoln. I'm in east-central Pennsylvania going to school at Penn State University for communications, hope to then go to law school. Currently I work in radio, doing a bit of everything at 2 local stations, I'm on the air live 6 days per week and handle programming for our adult contemporary FM station.

Leaving the radio station soon to transfer to one of two places... a data processing company as a member of their in house tech staff (did I mention I have some IT certifications as well?) or to a top secret project at a large local media company (serisously - its top secret - only the owner of the company, me, and one other person even know anything about it) - I have the oppritunity to get in on the start-up of this company's latest venture as the operations manager. Both are up in the air, I'm anxisoulsy awaiting news from both places.

Live at home with my parents and never see them... I'm asleep when they leave, and they're asleep when I get home. lol

My girlfriend is a pick-up truck girl but she totally understands my Lincoln obession! We've been together for about 2 years.

You gotta love those pick-up truck girls!!

I'm 27 and I work for a guy who owns a cattle farm/blacktop paving company. My job is to fix anything he owns that's broken. It might be a dump truck, it might be a grain elevator, you never know.

Where you ever in Abu Dhabi. I was there in 2001 June-August.

Where you ever in Abu Dhabi. I was there in 2001 June-August.

I've spent more time there than I care to think about. All in all time there I think I've got a solid 18 months.

I wasn't there during that time frame though. I was in a lull having just PCS'd from Travis to McGuire earlier in '01. My next time there was in October 2001.

I'm 21 and work for a grocery store called Food Lion. I work in the meat department as a Butcher/meat cutter (some prefer one term over the other). I went to college after graduating HS and went in studying computer programming and than switched to computer repair but all the stuff started to really get to me and by my 3rd semester I got so fed up and sick of it that I just did not register to continue, it was a community college. Before the butcher job I was a mechanic at AMF Carolina Lanes which was fun but hard too because I did not know alot of the things, so if a machine broke I'd need help, other than that I just spent the whole time running from machine to machine getting stuck bowling balls, fixing pile ups and checking the camera for the scoring. Mainly it sucked working 2 or 3 days a week, having to work friday nights from 5pm to almost 3 am and all day sunday. Ended up quiting because I hated it, and got the job at Food lion a couple days later and had no idea I would still be here today. Pay is alright, I'm still under-paid and have been waiting for the raise for quite sometime. Have not left because I like the store and the people, and I get alot of days off. But it would be nice to make much more so I can save for a future lol.

Also have a g/f of 4 yrs and a month or so. I should of gone to school for fixing cars and such since I love cars. Have had a few as you can see in my sig. The LS is the only car that I've had that is something worth something. But I still love cavaliers (after owning 3 why not right). I'd love to get another '88 or '89 z24 2.8L v6, 5spd and eventually do a swap to a 3400. ANother online club has a few 3400 powered 2nd gens and they love 'em. Or get an 3rd gen ('95-'05), prefer an '02 and hook that up and have it as a nice "beater" car.

I'm 62 and retired from NCR, I serviced large main frame computers for 27 years. Took early retirement at age 50. They are screwing with my benifits so bad that I have gone back to work. I live on a 50,000 acre lake and sell boats at one of the dealers on the lake.

I'm 23 and have been in the Navy for 6 years. For the first 5 1/2 years I was a shipboard firefighter and did fire equipment/systems maintenance (that's still supposedly my job). I went to shore duty 6 months ago and I work in facilities maintenance (plumber/electrician/handyman) on a small Navy compound within Camp Pendelton. I work by myself with no training or experience and my supervisors don't care. I hate it; if I hadn't promised my g/f (whom I live with) that I would never be going out to sea again, I would already be back on a ship. Anyhow, I'm not sure what I'll be doing when my current enlisment is up (2 years from now), but I hope to have my own hot rod shop some day.

Hey man all I can say is don't give up looking for something you want. I am in the same boat as you. I do have a college degree from the University of Iowa, I've been out of school a year and half and still haven't found anything what I supposedly went to school for. The college degree really hasn't helped to much so far. If you don't mind people and dealing with money I suggest getting a job at a bank. There are many different ways to go, you might have to be a teller for a while but growth is always a possibility within banking.


I agree. A Bank Job has excellent benefits, you never work late, you get to dress nice *which should be a gimme with your LS!!* and flexible schedules. I am working on my second year at Bank of America here in Kansas City. Not amazingly happy with it but it's a solid job, lots of paid vacation/holidays, competitive salary for a 21year old with no college degree.

A buddy and myself are hopefully following through with openening a car audio/custom shop. Doing anything from body kits/paint, to stereos, to interior etc. =) I have the business loan lined up if I need it but a lot of :q:q:q:q to go through first!

You are welcome. My father was in WWII. My brother was in the Korean conflict. My other brother was in Vietnam, and my sister was in the
Army. My son will be joining the Air Force next year. Military life kind of runs in the family. Just trying to do our share for our country.
God Bless The USA!!!!

I am an aircraft mechanic in the greatest Air Force in the world, U.S. Air Force. I have worked 3 different air frames, the F-117 KC-135 and the F-16 Fighting Falcon. :wrench

After college and grad school I was in the retail business, managing department stores and became a retail financial analyst. At 40 , burnt out and headad for a heart attack, I put my MBA in the top desk drawer and bought a small company that repairs pool and patio furniture. We replace the vinyl strapping (hence the "straps") and slings at mostly hotels, condos and resorts. Now my "office" usually overlooks the pool or the beach. Workin' less, makin' more.....(There's a lesson in there someplace for all of the students out there. One thing that they didn't cover at Wharton was entrepreneurship..and maybe spelling....)

I'm 58, been married to my lovely wife Janice for 35 years and have one grown daughter, Dana who is about to turn 34 this month.

I work for Global Motorsport Group, a large aftermarket manufacturer and wholesale distributor of parts and accessories for motorcycles, ATVs, and personal water craft. I am the Senior Manager of Customer Service and have been with GMG for 13 years.

Previously, I was a professional musician and also built custom bikes. I also sold cars for awhile, but my ethics kept getting in the way.

I moved to California from Chicago 13 years ago when I went to work for GMG after tiring of being on the road with the band.

ford parts dept for over 3 years

i'm an aircraft engine mechanic for commercial aircraft

I'm currently a 4th year Junior @ the University of Maryland studying Criminal Justice. I'm working as well trying to pay for this new LS and save some as well for some upgrades :L

Equity Research Analyst covering auto retailers and auto parts retailers. I am 27 and graduated from Bucknell University in PA with a double major in Business Management and Economics.

It is actually pretty funny to read a lot of posts that say, "I am recent graduate, or I'm in my mid 20's. . ." I also fall into that young 20's mold (22); I wanted something that said "professional but not yuppie." Its good to see that others share the same good taste.

I'm 24 years old and am a software engineer for a cell phone company. Basically, I write software for our engineers. In my spare time I'm a private pilot (Around 130 hours), swing dance, date womens, etc...

Just got my LS about a month ago, and have been reading these forums for about 2 months. This is an excellent place setup for us LS owners!!

And to the guy who said he was moving to the UK for their cheap gas: They sell their fuel by the liter. An LS holds around 68 liters, so it would cost you around $54 UK to fill up your car. At the current conversion rate, it would be around $100 US to fill up your LS in the UK. We got it lucky!

im 22 USN machinest mate nuclear engineer, on SSN 773 U.s.s Cheyenne (that's a submarine). im getting out in 4 years so if anybody is looking for an quality assurance, janitor, chemist, or work horse, give a ring have lots of training in those areas. I dont like my job much and the pay is .... we'll u can figure it out. I entend on finishing up my dual major in nuclear physics and mech. engineering on my own. (im just fishing for job offers, lol)

I'm an Air Force officer with more than 20 yrs on active duty. Upon finishing high school, I never wanted to step foot into another institution for learning. But, I found out pretty fast that without a formal education or some type of training, no one will hire you. I initially sought a recruiter, joined the Air Force as an Aircraft Maint. Technician (i.e. "CrewChief", "Crewdog", etc.) and since then, I've been all over the world. I now hold a Masters in Education and am working as Chief, Force Development Courses for the Air Force. Life is good.

I am 35 i moved to Austin Texas from NJ about 2years ago. To work at Dell which turned out to be a nightmare. I was a Liquidity Specialist. I managed a 30Million dollar portfolio until the lay-off. I am now currently contracting at Capital Metro as a Data Analyst for the Safety and Security Dept. in which i create, update, upgrade and maintain DATABASES for this Dept. as well for other Dept. to be able to use as well. And on the side out of my apartment i do computer work such as trouble shooting, data recovery, upgrades, networking, New Builds and Programing. etc etc etc. ..

I'm 31, live just South of Boston where it's supposed to snow 12" this weekend. I'm a supervisor at a financial company (institutional trading). The money is ok, and all I do all day is surf the internet basically and yell every once in a while. I'm married almost 7 years with two boys 10 & 4 and a 5 yr old girl. My career is pretty much on hold until my wife finishes nursing school, so I'm kind of in a rut I guess.

Motts, do you fight at all or just train? I'm a big fan of MMA and have trained pretty much for the last 10 years in one thing or another. The MMA scene is pretty big here in Boston with a lot of guys starting to get some recognition.

i'm 25 and do a mixture of IT, marketing/advertising, graphic/web design and sales for a pro audio company here in hollywood called Coffey Sound. we sell and rent high end audio equipment to film and TV sound mixers (and the occasional aspiring student, of course). it's a fun job but i am stretched a bit thin these days, covering so many departments.

24, mortgage broker, west-suburbs of chi-town. 95 mark viii 2" drop(strutmasters).

I have 18+ years in the Air Force. My current job is a Recruiter in the SE corner of MN. Before that I was in munitions, stationed at Whiteman AFB, MO.

I am begining to look forward to retirement. :D

23 year old female. no kids. single.
and i work for an agency called .. Lake Cumberland Community Action Agenct. where we help low income families with their heating bills.
