My first thought about this thread was "this will be a bit dull"..but actually it's more interesting than it should be by rights.

I'm a school teacher.

Previous jobs include, scaffolder, van driver, retail (mens wear and ladies wear...yes, I can use the line 'I worked in ladies underwear :-D , it's always good for a laugh) security guard (once did an event with Charles and Di when they had a banquet with the Saudi royal family) I've also run the education program for a Premiership football club and a County Cricket Club, van driver, insulating contractor, Santa in a department store (awful job, the uniform was nylon and unpleasant to wear), maintenance in a factory, production line in a brewery (and we could drink pretty much anytime of the day so long as we didn't get caught by the bosses) , foundry labourer, and other assorted jobs over the years.


I retired from the Marines in 2002, I was an EOD guy. When I retired, I took a job with Uncle Sam still working with things that go boom, not the average job.

Hi everyone. I am a Hydronic Designer @ Emco Ltd . I design heating and cooling systems, I do heat loss calculations and loop drawings, and I also sell the product as well.


After 18 years as a coal miner and 18 years as a line supervisor in a steel joist plant now I work at a golf course during the week and work as a security guard on weekend nights.

I work as a technology relationship manager for a financial services company. I notice there are a good representation of techies in this bunch. Nice to know I'm in good company. After staring at computer monitors on a daily basis, it's soul-mending to be able to see green slopes and turn your aggression towards a small dimpled ball.

Hey Fellas -   I'm new, in fact this is my first post... I'm a Graphic Designer by trade, but I also work for the SF Giants and am involved in the Cigar business.  I've "golfed" all my life, but I'm taking it more seriously this year and am here to soak up as much advice and info that I can...

    • Not really, no. I don't know the history, what you've worked on, what you've tried and moved away from… etc.
    • Day 9: 2/16/25 Putting through 50 mm gates from 11”. Swing pressure shift drills.
    • Definitely not a favorite… For some reason my wife and I started watching Cobra Kai. I know the original was pretty cheesy, but the inability of these people to get over shit that happened like 30 years ago is astounding. And these kids would be arrested, but they don’t even seem to get suspended from school. Would Danny not notice that Johnny’s son looks like Johnny? Etc.? Why would a completely different dojo that has the same name be “banned”? Oy. Not sure we’ll make it to season 2.
    • Day 139 - 2025-02-16 Weather led to a rescheduled GEARS lesson, so I used the time to work on my swing for 60 minutes or so. All downswing stuff. Some swings at 93 MPH. Most around 75-80.
    • A question I have is…this swing (fade, pull cut) does not  feel as good and easily repeatable as the draw swing we were working on previously.  I’m kinda in a weird spot where I do not know which direction will be the best to pursue. I like seeing a penetrating 5 yard draw but also like the thought of the fade not getting away from me as much.    Any thoughts on that?
