i don't really know the english term (which exists) for what i do :) i take care of books layouts for print, reviewing and preparing for print in a digital printing company. I also do part of the layouts (most of the book covers, plus some customer work). I also work on printing machines (altough i prefer working on layouts). We print both publishing and industry related books and such, so there's a wide variety (you don't get bored that much in the end).

My company website http://www.atenet.com

A few shots of the printing machines (mainly xerox). We also have some reel printing ones.

Koden, your English job title is on the tip of my tongue. It's not editor but... something close.

Anyway, I'm a 22 year old self employed computer technician. I advertise computer repair, custom builds, networking and more to the local community. Pays decently and I can dictate my own hours which leaves me time for small engine repair and working around my property.

Yeah well i'm still on my apprenticeship so i happen to do many different things which also involve working on printing machines, doing machine cleanups and setting it up and such. I rather do a mix of things than sitting on the same chair for 8 straight hours.

Being european i don't have that much of a clue as how US of A are formed up, but Idaho looks as a beautiful place from your photos. Many USa states to me often look like huge land with a really few citizens. Must be our european little towns with the tiny medieval roads.

Are you wanting to keep on with printing work? Or is it just a job until you can pursue your passion? I know you enjoy the book work that you do though.

I think all the USA states have their share of rural areas. Idaho, Montana and Wyoming are more rural though but there still are big cities. I'm 20 minutes from 2 20k cities and an hour from a 45k population city. If you ignore the raping of the land that farmers do, Idaho does have a lot of natural beauty.

Yep i enjoy it, my bosses are always planning on throwing more things to do at me but i still like the job. Before this job, i used to work in a small company making expositing furniture (i used to do mostly cnc machine working and spray-painting finishing, with some 3d modeling prototypes for customers).

To get this topic back on track and for those that don't know, Skrewy actually is a metal worker or boilermaker as he calls it. Welding, cutting and building large metal works. But, he left his job and has been unemployed for months, playing games and trolling people online all day every day.

All Care Garden Maintenance (Dad had this business before me and his tagline was All care, no responsibility)

I lol'd. I actually wouldn't mind getting into a little landscaping work. I just don't have a trailer to haul mowers & stuff around.

Can't really interact without knowing different languages. and I'm curious what you mean by "find places that aren't shit" Seems to me like you're implying that the U.S. is shit, I could be wrong though.

Well I tried to deploy again, but they wouldn't let me. They told me I could possibly change my MOS and stay in, but fuck all that. So now I can focus on school which is a big plus.
