[Andy Steiner]

:) You have to be 18..
Yeah sure you do... Two words: Tracy Lords.


A better way to phrase it would be: You must have two forms of government issued ID that prove that you are at least 18 years of age. In all seriousness, the adult industry does its very best to police itself and to never knowingly hire anyone underage. Frankly, the risks aren't worth it. There are too many girls of age (who look younger than 18) for a producer to take a chance on anybody who can't prove they are at least 18.

Before I retired I was in show biz. Worked as a union stagehand in legit theater and network television. Think Dorthy Chadler Pavilion and similar theaters in Los Angeles County. Was assistant Prop Master on Price is Right, Match Game and many, many other productions for CBS, NBC, etc..

In 1982, I began a 23 year career in the adult entertainment industry, first as a duplicator and then a location stage manager and finally a video tape editor. I owned my own company for the last 15 years, retiring in 2005.

I had the ultimate Dirty Job and one that Mike Rowe will never be able to show on the Discovery Channel... making porn movies.

I even have a listing on the Internet Movie Database under my nom de porn, S. Andrew Roberts (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0731557/). Oddly enough, out of the more than 700 movies I edited in my career they only list three. Go figure!

[jeeperjohn]

Yeah, that's where I work. That's my white XJ.

[jeeperjohn]

Got any copies of those edited tapes? Many of us are probably enthusiastic consumers of adult entertainment.

generally im a special inspector on construction sites, like concrete inspection, rebar, masonry, epoxy, but bolting connections and mechanical anchors are my specialty.
but im sure "silver ax" would call me a "construction cop".
i used to build rice rockets engines,
i also worked in aerospace R & D company as a assembly tech on the predator uav and the helicoptor version, the a 160 hummingbird, until the prototypes were complete.
i will still do "3rd party mechanical inspections" as an indepedent contractor on odd assemblies, and "consulting" when it comes to assembly
basicly im a hands on paper pusher.

I am a sales and marketing manager.
The company I work for manufactures webbing and braided products. I work for the value added division which takes the nylon webbing and makes dog collars, leashes and harnesses. We recently bought a company that manufactures surfboard bags, roof pads and soft racks. So basically I drive around Southern California in my XJ visiting pet stores and surf board shops and get paid for it.
We also do private label manufacturing for a company that sells accessories for Rhinos. We make soft tops, door nets, grab handles etc for them.
And soon (if I have anything to do with it!!) we will introduce a cargo barrier net for XJ's which will mount vertically behind the rear seat. They will prevent items in the rear from becoming potentially hazardous flying projectiles in case of roll over. The construction is similar to Nascar window nets. More details coming (probably not real soon tho).

A simple mod can turn those cattle haulers into very useful vehicles. Take a gallon of red paint and put a bullseye on the side, have them towed out into the middle of nowhere, and blast the sh!t out of them! When they are adequately perforated, you can use them as planters.

You know, that here in CA, we don't say how far we live or drive in miles? we say how long it takes in time...

I though it was wierd when I first got out here over 12 years ago. But now, it's just normal....

For example, I live about 8 miles from work. BUT, I live 25 minutes from work...

As for wheeling, well, it's more than hour and a half, but less than 100 miles...
