11pm to 7am, I'm a corrections(17 years) officer for the state.
All other times, I'm a PGA proffesional. I'm the Director of Instruction at Black Rock GC here in Hagerstown.
Corrections pays some bills, and the PGA thing is what I love to do. I really do like watching people get better and enjoy the game more.
It's hard building a clientel in this economy, and at a public facility. But, things are slowly getting better.

I was in the Air Force as a cop for 6 years. Now I browse the forum all day bumping threads, making deals, processing orders, etc. I also watch my 9 month old all day Mon-Thurs. It has to be the hardest thing I've ever done.

I'm an Architectural Project Manager!

I work with "start up" clients to see if we can design a building that fit's their needs and budget.

I oversee production staff doing working drawings with autocad.

I do cost estimating for our construction division.

And my favorite part, I go out to job sites and tell contractors that they're "doing it wrong"...just to pi** them off!

I was going to try surfing when I was on vacation last year in Honolulu and Maui but never got around to it. I have since removed it from my list and will focus on snorkeling and diving. :D My extent of golfing involved playing 11 holes in the rain one year followed by 9 holes last year. Both outings were not pretty. :lol:

I'll stick to the driving ranges.
