    I'll guess that makes you the #3 guy at the national level and chief deal broker over at Christian Schools Australia. Am I close?

    Ok, you got me, I'am a bachelor , and I truly fear the wrath of a woman who finds the seat up...althoug it doesn't make any logical sense to me (you see the toilet seat up, you put it down...I see it down and I put it up) XD

    I am a oncology genetic cytotechnologist. I look at chromosomes to diagnose cancer and later to see if cancer treatments are working.

    I'm an "Innkeeper", theoretically managing a hotel; practically it's mostly about managing people.

    The lady and I provide respite care for individuals with developmental disabilities. I'm also registered with the gaming policy and enforcement branch and do a little electronic repair, welding and machining on the side. I'm a Dad too but that's more about eating bacon than bringing it home, lol.

    Currently I have to spend > $1 mil per day to keep the Project Manager happy while keeping numerous Supervisors, Engineers, Forepersons, Safety Managers, Leading Hands, Contractors & Construction workers from hurting themselves or each other within a time frame I am ultimately responsible for.

    Like a super size day care really.

    I love my job. Wouldn't change it for the world. Building stuff, making money, timeframes, sending everyone home safely to their families.

    Don't know if I love it enough to want my son to follow in my profession though.
