Hey, someone's gotta keep those boxes rollin'...! I'm an "Inventory Control Technician" which loosely translated means "Professional Box Counter/Stacker" at a regional distribution center for a major retail company.

I work for a real estate broker/developer. I don't exactly have a job title, I'm just sort of his main guy to make stuff happen on his projects, right now I'm the foreman on the construction of an industrial park, and we're about to start building an apartment complex. When both of these projects are finished I'll be the manager of them as well as working on any future projects that we come up with. And in my spare time (yeah, right!) I tinker with things automotive, and build and repair stringed instruments. -TD

Rancher who is trying to retire. Guess the only way I can really retire is sell all the land. Problem here is over the years I have built a pretty nice shop/barn. I dont know that I could afford to build another one or where I'd go to build it. Besides its Wyoming, no inspections, 4% sales tax, no interstate, 250,000 acres of BLM in my backyard..... it really does not get any better than this.

Well that one's hard to follow up....

I have a CS Degree (Common Sense) from UTR (Up Through the Ranks). I have been a graphic designer for 13 years. Somehow, I always manage to get dragged into the support/IT side of things. I have been a Production Manager, an Assistant Systems Administrator and currently a DTi Application Support Analyst - which is a really fancy way of saying that I help people learn how to use publishing software.

If you happen to live in a really kicka$$ state (Colorado, Wyoming, Montana) and you have the need for a ready-to-rock graphic designer with a full understanding of systems and post-script hit me up. I am SOOOOO ready to get out of the desert.

Also, my girlfriend has a finance degree - so if ya'all hear about something let me know!

I absolutely love this site - the people are phenomenal. I have never seen such a wealth of information collected in one place. I would go so far as to say, I don't think you have to worry about homeland security. Just tell the crew at FTE what you want done we can design it, engineer it, build it, package it, ship it, fix it and if necessary help it start breathing again... What a group. We have snipers, medics & cops. Rocket scientists and teachers... There isn't anything this group can't answer. Probably a few things no one wants to touch, though....
