Navy Aviation Electrician working on mine countermeasures equipment, Industrial Electrician and Instrument Fitter(working in refineries, natural gas burning power plants, and a nuclear plant) and 6th Generation Cyberdrillship Electrician(working in places like Korea, Singapore, Angola, and currently off the coast of Egypt)are most of the jobs I have held in my lifetime so far.
