I work for Exxon/Mobil as an Active Directory Infrastructure Specialist and Network Administrator. I take care of over 530+ Active Directory Servers worldwide.

That's not all the servers do, but it's one of the primary functions. I basically sit around all day logging into servers remotely all around the world fixing issues and designing ways to make things function better

I have a small 2-bay performance shop that specializes in classic GM cars and trucks, although we do the token Ford and Mopars from time to time.

Engines/trannys, and suspensions mostly. We can squeeze in 6 cars comfortably.

We have done complete restorations, farming out body and paint work, but the time those take is not "cost effective" LOL.

Before that I was a tech at GM dealerships for more than 25 years

This is our 8th year in business.
