what do you do?

Just curious what everyone does for a living?

Me, I work in the Network Operations Security Center (NOSC) for the Air National Guard. My official title is Intrusion Detection Specialist. I can't dwell on exactly what I do other than "monitor the network". I also work 3rd shift (if you couldn't tell by my 3:00 am post)

I work at Goldfield Trim & Upholstery, i like the job because i get to learn how you do interior work on older vehicles and i also get to work around old vehicles. I won't be able to work as much as i have this summer because i'm still in high school. We start the 23rd and i go and check my laptop out after school.

Uh...... watch TV, play with the dogs, mess around on the computer. Maybe cook and clean a little from time to time.

Then every once in a while, usually 2-4 times a year I go to Colorado or Utah.

I'm retired.

I work for T-Moble Customer Care. I handle cancellations and data calls.

And just to clear things up, Tony is not unemployed, he is simply in between jobs. 'Cause trust me, he has plenty of work to do around here. : )

Manufacturing engineer in aircraft composites shop. Write planning, figure out if/how to repair defects, look for problems, come up with ideas. If it's not broke, fix it until it is. Start back at Spirit (used to be Boeing) tomorrow AM but I'm not quite done at the old job yet, will probably still spend a few evenings and weekends there.

I recruit and train people who volunteer to serve as guadians or conservators for adults when there isn't family to do it. We contract with the volunteers and continue to provide assistance to them after their court appointment. I cover a 21 county area in east central Kansas.
