What's your brew, as in life trade

My first bike at 17 was an old BSA Bantam which my dad taught me to maintain. Very necessary.
I started off working as a Trainee Design Engineer for GKN. They used to put all their trainees through the apprentice workshop course, so they taught me really useful metalwork skills which I've used all my life.
A big career change saw me morph into an Air Traffic Controller. I managed to survive that until I retired earlier this year. It's one of the only jobs where you actually get paid to look out of the window! 8)

If you can see them out of the window, isn't it too late? :)

Hopefully not. ;) The Mark 1 eyeball is still one of the best ways to spot something going wrong.
