    Born in Wichita and moved away at a young age. I have been working at IA DOT for 38 years in the engineering/design department. This sausage making is a very addictive habit to have.

        I’m a control Room operator at a Holcim cement plant. I run a kiln 2 raw mills and 2 finish mills. It’s a great job. I’m also a taxidermist and a volunteer fireman for the last 18 years. I also love this community. I have learned so much here and Waltons has by far the best quality products I’ve ever used. This might be the best subject I have read on here because I too have often wondered what everyone did for a living.

                              rescuefoot Milnor, down in the SE corner. If you’ve seen a Bobcat it was made 8 miles from here. I did live in Drake for a year which was 40 miles from Minot.

                                I’m a banker during the day. I manage a branch, and generally enjoy it. I’m not any good at playing politics, so that has hurt me in the past, but I do enjoy what I do, especially my interactions with small business owners and helping them achieve their dreams.

                                    Nicolai I was talking to my neighbor this weekend who works for the largest BobCat dealership group in the US. Apparently business is a boomin’! lkrfletcher this is going to sound stupid but they did some cad drawings for my house and they colorized a bunch of stuff, it looked like the world or dungeon maps from old school video games like metroid!
