Yet another in the IT world. I manage all the technical area of a web hosting company, which means that anything that breaks or doesn't work instantly becomes my problem. Part of the reason I started brewing beer in the first place :)
 
Former Supervisor in a Shipyard. Shipyard shut down so the wife went back to work full time while I have a stint at stay at home dad......and loving it.
I see the kids a lot more and I get to brew a lot more and hope to turn it into something more than just a hobby.
 
chef then teacher and back to chef...maybe one day a headbrewer at a small microbrewery that is being planned.

Wake up each day and help kids understand more about how to play their instrument. Used to work retail in a couple of music stores after i finished uni.
Play in bands on the weekend, direct a Drum Ensemble where i have to do all the composing which is fun.
When students don't show up for lessons, i'm on AHB!
