Re: What do we all do for a living?

Interesting thread I stumbled upon.....

Let's see some new members add to this. I am an Electrical Engineer and an Optical Engineer. I have worked on everything from light bulbs to the Titan rocket to pocket projectors to high power lasers that can blast through thick sheets of Titanium.

Re: What do we all do for a living?

If I've posted in this thread before, the answer is different now anyway.

Look at your thumbnail. Yeh, I design circuit board layouts about that big. You might have one in your yard and not even know it.

Also Dad to a 10 year old boy - that is enough to keep anyone busy.

In my spare time, I drive or work on my two SVXes. (more work than drive?)

Did I say that I love my work!!!! I have been doing this for 24 years.
Ah, how the times change, Earle!

I have been in IT since my departure from the USAF and have done it all from Help Desk to Network Administration.
And now I am a member of a 6 person team that is responsible for all end user and production computers in North and South America at BMW Manufacturing here in South Carolina.

My primary office is at the BMW ITRC (Information Techonlogy Research Center) on the CU-ICAR (Clemson University International Center for Automotive Research) Campus. But I also work at the 1000 acre manufacturing facility from time to time.
