Just wondering what all of us dubbers actually DO to make a living (or just to provide for our addictions). Me? I work two jobs; Barista and Retail Guy of doom.
i pack parachutes and jump out of planes for a living, and its all paid for by you the loving tax payer.
So for my 95 jumps i say thank you.

Hmmmmm
The question was what do we actually do???
Me,
as little as possible, yet I get a fortnightly pay packet that helps feed my various vehicular addictions 🙂
Gawd, its good to have people that do my work for me 😀

To get paid I work as a Nurse, so I am the one that gets to clean up the mess after people like BuzzBug who are into extreme sports .......
I am also a bellydancer ....... That is WAY more fun than cleaning up blood and guts !
helbus ·
Jumping out of planes is probably safer than crossing the road. So remember Buzzbug, you cannot do both or you will be shortening the odds.
Hmmmm bellydancing. I wonder if I can get Fleur to do that instead of kickboxing? 🙂

mscabrio i feel safe doing what i do, i pack my own parachute.
and i am not one of these thrill seeking extreme sports types that is going to try and endanger themselves and everyone else.
this is just a part of my job.
oh and by the way, Australian Army Parariggers are the best in the world.
There has not been one falality due to rigger error in our 37year history.
but if you look at my avatar, that is what happens when you don't look where you are going when your coming in for a landing.
someone slaming into a shed sounds very funny when you are inside the shed.

My neighbours are all RAAF guys and they said the parachutes they use
are designed to get them down on the ground as quickly as possible to avoid getting shot at in mid air.
Makes the landing a lot faster and harder than the recreational parachuutist. Plenty of injuries he reckons due to that.

mass troop insertion parachutes get you to the ground very fast.
and most likely there may be injuries.
I have seen croken coxics and crushed vertibra aswell as a shit tin of broken bones and concusions.
however free fall is completely different.

My partner is a postie, and he says he will die at the post office. It's the best job in the world. Like today, he went to work early - 5.00 am, but he was home by 9.30 am and has taken the kids and the kombi to Torquay for the day. OOHHHH boy am I jealous !!!!
