Reefers! What is Your Profession?!

[Knr499]

General contractor/owner of a high end remodeling business. Very good with my hands allows me to custom make stands, canopies, etc.

I’m a medical device sales and clinical rep and I love what I do. My niche is that I’m a cardiac imaging expert and my product is an imaging catheter that takes pictures from inside the heart. I have the luxury in providing clinical support for some of the coolest minimally invasive cardiac procedures being done. At minimum,
I’m an excellent problem solver when it comes to fluid dynamics because of my role, lol, and I believe this can be helpful in the reefing world. I’d say my natural curiosity for figuring out how complex systems work has led me to my career and to reef tanks!

Teach college biology. The reef tank is very much in my scientific lane.

Signed the guy that has lived in one flavor of steel (now alloy) toed boots for 30+ years.

Right!
It's been 40 years living in steel toes, my feet are NOT pretty. 7 more and I'm trading them in for sandals.

I pretty much only wear sandals outside of work, lol. I own more work boots & work shoes than every day tennis shoes & dress shoes. Of course I prolly have around a dozen pairs of sandals.

[Minifoot77]

Dang, no wonder I find reefing expensive, I don't make nearly what 90% of you do, lol

Hvac technician. Maybe my state is the problem

Nah its expensive us blue collar workers are just chasing it

 

[FifteenYearsBand]

Infectious Disease RN in in the PNW. Also have a band with my wife but that doesn't pay anything:

 

[Minifoot77]

Does hvac pay more than a wrench?

 

[Dburr1014]

Does hvac pay more than a wrench?

Depends on what the wrench is turning!

Wow, good to hear. Many years ago, I was talking to a guy that I met thru a fish forum and he told me about visiting a car dealer after graduating from college, and he was impressed with a reef tank there… it was one of my stores!
He’s now a local friend.

[javajaws]

Lifelong professional software developer (currently js/react/node mostly).

You can definitely reef on the cheap, but don't expect to win any beauty awards with that plastic rim tank and white PVC lol! Also, money often only buys more problems! KISS and put that manual labor into it! Knowledge is key and money can't buy that.

Interesting ! So do you view the people on the inside of the offices as though there in a saltwater tank or visa versa ?
