So that's a lorry ?!? 
I'm a product manager for a sanitary instrumentation manufacturer. Our parent company owns a lot of diverse companies - one of them Jacobs Engineering which produces "Jake Brakes" for diesel engines. Possibly on yours.

My job is surfing and riding my motorcycle, mostly in the twisties with my wife on her SV. I'm a retired vocational automotives teacher.
By the way, you don't look anything like Large Marge from "PeeWee's Big Adventure". That's usually the stereotype for a female truck driver over here on the other side of the pond.
I noticed when I was in England that all the trucks, excuse me...lorrys, were Volvos and Mercedes.

I work for a plastic bottle manufacturer in engineering. Our group handles beer, wine and liquor. Also Ocean Spray and returnable plastic Coke bottles in South America.
Additionally, I design all the custom gages and widgets required to make plastic bottles.

For the past 24 years I have served in the US Army, currently as a Infantry Sergeant Major. Just back from another tour in Iraq...
I'm the middle guy in this pic.. Calling in Attack aviation, Medevac birds and anyone else I can get to come to the party. Bad guys were not happy we had found there stash of IED's and Anti Aircraft weapons.
On a patrol, as is pretty normal we find a hidden IED, call the Ordinance disposal folks,,,,,,, and at first they refuse to get out of the truck, and then later will not go near the bomb until they get in the "Bomb suit" which was ok with us until they said "and you will have to walk us over to the IED and point it out,, it's hard to see with this suit on"......DUDE,, you got the bomb suit on......... ohh never mind it's over here...
Been up about 38 hours, I'm tired, I'm grumpy and I want to go to sleep...The bunch of clowns I call soldiers that work for me decided to come serenade me to sleep..... I was not impressed as you can see.....

27 years keeping Americas mail moving. I don't deliver, I work at the Philadelphia Processing & Distribution Center (the Mail Factory). Sorry, no cameras allowed inside the facility! Can't risk letting the secrets of a quasi-government agency fall into the wrong hands. Also a handyman and landlord. Poet and artist, of course!
