I have wore many hats over the years but 2 of my most personally rewarding were;

I created a C++ program that ran on a VAX that communicated with an automatic call distributor that handled the routing of incoming and outgoing calls for a call center of 350 people that handled ~5K calls per day.

For about 13 years I got out of programming and started my own construction company and remodeled many houses but I did one for a guy that flipped them and he had bought a house for ~24K that hadn't had a roof on it for 3 weeks during the rainy season. He and his partner tried to reframe the interior but decided it was to much for them so they hired my partner and I. When we finished it was appraised at $120K.

There's a fine line between crazy and free spirited and it's usually a prescription.
