What do Communicators do when they leave the Navy?

This question is often raised by not only Communicators but also by members of other branches.  A number of us joined the Police, Government Agencies, Petrol Attendants, Courier Drivers, Import Export, Teachers, Nursing etc etc etc.
I wonder if other members have an interest in this subject? If this is something you would like to see on the blog, then I would be willing to make up and publish a list of  members together with their occupations and their contact details.  This information could be used by members to utilise their skills, expand individuals networks and learn from the experience of others, which we all know is so important in this day and age.

I am teaching VHF & MROC courses part-time, so thanks RNZN. I finally found a use for all that morse and signal training in civi street! What do comms do for a job when they leave the puss? What are you doing now?
