Title: What does your Significant other or Wife do.
Post by: tqmx1 on January 26, 2011, 11:19:37 PM
 OK just for the jollies what do your Significant other or Wife do? I know some just might be happy as home makers & mothers but others might have some unusual jobs.

I will start out with mine, Stef has been to a few of the WCR on her CBR929RR+XR650L but the last few years work has got in the way. She is now flying for CALFIRE  her job is flying the AIR-TAC platform in a North American OV-10 so between June 16Th to Oct.15,I am a bachelor for the 4 month she that is gone. (last year she was based at Fortuna) She is one step closer to her final goal flying the S2T tankers. As for Women doing the Job there are 13 aircraft+ 1 spare (from one end of the state to the other) 19 Pilots and of that only 3 women. Kinda falls into a small and elite group. The photo is her ride, a 1430HP trike.

Stef has my admiration!

My wife, Vicky works for the areas largest hospital, associated with the billing aspect of the business.

My thoughts exactly!  Way to set the bar high Kim!  ;)

My wife Stacey is an Ast. Manager at a Chase Bank.  She should be a Manager of her own bank branch within a year.

What Kim forgot to mention is that Stef is one hell of a motorcycle pilot...She is fast, fast, fast, and one very nice person.

What makes you think that our wives don't make us fat and happy also?   :biggrin:  Just because they are professional women, they are still women.  :good:   :yahoo:  :dance:   :dance2: :wacko2:

Not saying they don't.  My problem is that mine ONLY does that!  :sarcastic: 

Maybe I'm extra difficult and it takes all her hard effort.  I must just not understand.   :empathy:

My wife is the Business Manager for a fairly large music school of good national repute. It's a pretty daunting task, I hear, trying to manage a non-profit organization filled with primadonnas.

Beyond that, she tolerates me and my FJ, but won't tolerate my desire for armament. I guess I'll have the last word on 2012-12-21 when the zombies rise up to smote us all and my family will be unprotected.
