Field Manager for a company that performs insurance inspections on personal line policies. We do all the major undrwriters. Not glamorous, but a damned good job, when you consider the fact that I set my own schedule and work from home. Ahh..the life!

Family business. Put my hands in a bucket of joint compound when I was four years old. Been around it my whole life. Content with no complaints. Jake.

I work for a small company that employs under 30 people. Everyone knows each other and we all get along, so I don't have any complaints. Besides anywhere you go you gotta work. Unless your bill gates or something.

People who say it can't be done should not interrupt the person doing it.

Well truckfreak you could be a race car driver, drive your own rig, be your own mechanic but im not sure how to figure in the computer programing, the businessman and of course the pimp.

I'm a Hazmat Transport Engineer (OK, I drive a gas tanker). Used to run all 48 states and Canada, now I'm home everyday. Run for a chain of convenience stores in PA, MD, VA, WV. Now I just gotta learn to stop running the skinny roads and looking for trucks in fields and people's back yards...

Systems Test Engineer for a telecommunications company. We make systems that distribute calls to agents when you call a tech support department, help line, order desk, and some government agencies. We also do other things, such as voice mail, those pesky little automated systems that tell you to press this for that and that for this, QC call recording, PBX systems for offices and retail stores, and a new web product to route chats and email to agents from a website.

I am currently on an engineering co-op in Connecticut, but will be going back to school very soon to become a real mechanical engineer. (Yeah right)
