How do Incredible owners make a living?

Thought this would be interesting.
Im on my phone more than I should be at work and have only seen other Incredibles here. Ive always felt like the DI was for more advanced users and/or techies and was wondering how ones employment compared.

Im an aviation electrician on UAV's (drones). Have been for the last 2.5 years after doing the same work for 9 years in the military.

Well...I'm currently unemployed...but I used to fly Shadow 200 TUAVs for the Army. What UAVs do you work on?

You'd be suprised! Especially for the money compared to military wages. They deploy anywhere to Vegas n Arizona to "the shit". Well worth it for people that enjoy deploying or are thinking of reenlisting. As well as the Navy downsizing.

Oh, even while in the Air Force they are "deploying" to those places now. GRR...and that's why Predator and Global Hawk operators irk me. While I was in Iraq in 2006, a group of them in, IIRC, Florida...were complaining about how they had it just as bad as us in Iraq because they were away from home too...in the United States, getting payed twice as much as us, got to bring their families with them, etc. etc.

....Course, if I didn't wear glasses, I woulda gone Air Force myself:) Kinda sad that I can't sit behind a computer screen and fly a UAV because I wear glasses.

Ah well, those times are gone now...I'm steering as far away from anything military as I can:) Trying to get into something in the gaming area. I was enrolled in Full Sail University for Game Art, but Chase stopped carrying student loans for Full Sail, and no one else wanted to give a $100,000 student loan to someone with 2 loans already. <sigh> What I wouldn't give for a job at Bioware!

Oh I know. I could do a week, MAYBE two at Huachuca; I've done some time at China Lake too. I wouldn't forward deploy with them though.
