for Being a broker is the old "buy'em low, sell 'em high game. After the one o'clock bell, brokers have fifteen minutes to close their market orders. This is done by shouting your bids and positioning your hands. Palms out means sell, palms in means buy. I can assure you it's a fun game to win. San Francisco, California

for I’m a supervisor for a drayage company and tonight we're moving an oil-derrick platform. It's 116 feet long and weighs 186 tons. It will take us three hours to go six miles. I don't think I could work sitting at a desk. My next job will be moving oil-refinery equipment to Saudi Arabia. Tri-Valley Area, Northern California
