I work for a large company that services it's own products as well as competitors. Lots of industrial food service products as well as other lines.

Software geek.

Best thing about my job is the atmosphere and benefits. We ride/race bikes out of the shop everyday at noon.

I'm a commercial office furniture installer, basically a cubicle farmer, I put up panel systems. Also deal with high end wood office furniture. Currently I'm an account lead at a large Milwaukee company, the facility is 2 buildings of 9 floors each. So in addition to the 10-15 miles a day I try to ride, according to my pedometer, I average about 5+ miles a day walking around the facility.

I burn coal for a living at a power plant. Sort of cancels out the overly greener-ness of cycling so much. Gives me a good balance in life I suppose!
