Disc jockey/announcer when we still played records, until I got tired of working for radio wages (which are shite). Calling football games was fun , though.
Also, on one pipeline job, I was with the crew picking up all the big styrofoam floats after they cut them off the pipe. We had to roam the marsh, load the floats on a sled, and a helicopter would hover and we'd hook the belt holding the floats together to a hook on the bottom of the helicopter. Also rode the chopper to work and back ever day. No doors, flying over the marshland was like being in a Viet Nam movie. Aside from our foreman, none of us were more than 20, and we were all crazy.
It was a blast.
