What Does Everyone Do For A Living?

I build refugee camps...

Project Manager for a Company who specailizes in 'floating heavy loads on air'. We have a product that we can place under heavy industrial/manufactured equipment such as aircraft, military vehicles, Heavy power Industry (such as transformers, huge 300+ton Diesel engines for ships or power plants), Nuclear waste, etc... and reduce the friction under them by using large volume of air (relatively low pressure). This allow for omni-direction movement of the load. Awesome for setting large stamping presses and machinery for riggers. Our product is constructed into steel frame platforms with steerable drive systems for moving heavy production equipment on assembly lines (such as farm equipment, trucks, military vehicles, switch gear, etc..).
Its a rather small industry worldwide, but not many players either. It's an interesting product because we are not tied to any one industry and get to see a lot of big shit being built, such as ship components and huge aircraft such as the airbus.
On my spare time, I use to wipe noses around here and coach baseball. Today, I just laugh at people and coach baseball.
Why don't you "morph" that technology and create a passenger vehicle that would "ride on air". Kind of a personal hovercraft.

It requires a constant flow of air, and a smooth surface to float upon. This technology is used in hospitals for moving large patients from gurney to bed, etc ... or vets use it for transporting a large animal (horse) through an MRI machine, but in order to travel a fast rate of speed, it would require a hell of a lot of air at a rapid pace, which something like a compressor would have to out-put, and be powered (battery) by, etc .. Just not practical.
A hover craft is much different it works on Jet propulsion
High Speed trains 'elevate/float' but are based off of electromagnetic propulsion. Also much different.
To bring our technology on-topic here, Mile High Stadium use to expand and contract the seating depending on the event inside. This was done on similar equipment, but instead of air, they used water. For two reasons: A film of water can carry more weight than air, and it can be recovered and re-used. Large ships are launched from land at times under the same principal.
The Sapporo Dome in Japan can change the playing surfaces from baseball to soccer. The baseball field is of artificial turf and is rolled up after use, but the soccer field is grown outside the stadium and floated into place and set before the games.
The gigantic natural lawn soccer pitch weighs 8,300 tons. It slowly moves into the stadium at a speed of 4 meters per minute using 34 wheels but it also hovers 7.5 centimeters above the ground using air pressure. By storing the pitch outside, the facility is able to better maintain its natural grass. (see picture below)
Arizona's new stadium was built similar, but here in the states God forbid we do something simpiler and of less cost. Their stadium floor opens up underneith and the field is wheel-driven in and out (having cost a fotune compared to the Japan design), see illustration below:

Glad to see you landed on your feet after the marriage between this technology and the portable penis pumps you created didn't work.

LOL, I was seriously thinking about listing that as my occupation (again). I think Westside Steve still believes that is what I do ... or at least the only one I haven't convinced of this 'floating heavy loads on air' gig, as my real occupation.
I also produce children ball teams.

Im a door to door traveling salesman, kinda like the fuller brush man. But I sell adult novelty sex toys, its seems odd that the women always want a full length demonstration.

There's a lot of talent and intelligence in this group! Who'da thunk it?
