    Now that is a cool job. Your hallways are filled with white noise so you can't hear any conversations in the adjacent rooms right? That's some top secret crap right there.

    Re: Wats your day job?

    I get to stay home all day and play with snakes. For the last 6 years Ive been lucky enough to do what i love from home every day. I;ve been able to spend countless more hours with my wife and son than most people get to and I'm eternally grateful for that.

    My father was laid off from caterpillar after 33 years last October and together we are actually opening a non medical home care franchise in October (http://www.synergyhomecare.com/). Im really looking forward to yet another new adventure and the opportunity to really help people as well. We were inspired to open the company based on our experience with my grandparents. My grandfather has Alzheimer and my grandmother is diabetic and blind. Being Italians we care for our own and could never imagine putting them in a nursing home. Non medical in home care (basic house work, companionship, help with their meals and bathing allows them to live out their lives at home rather than a nursing facility. I'll still be doing snakes, just not as many and may not make it to the boards as much but will still be around as much as possible (you'll never get rid of me).
    Support my efforts to raise awareness and donations to the Alzheimer's Association in honor of my Grandfather Eugene......

    Re: Wats your day job?

    Me and my fiance both worked at a company called Columbus Serum Company it was a vet warehouse. Me and sarah both worked with the d.e.a to register and track all pedigree drugs across the country. Sadly we were bought out and shut down back in april and we have been unemployed since then. We both loved our jobs and loved everyone we worked with. It was a very nice place to work

    Re: Wats your day job?

    I am a currently unemployed Landscape Designer. Our company did some MAJOR downsizing last summer and is only doing commercial jobs now. Hoping to go back to school to get a degree in Landscape Architecture and become a certified L.A. I guess for now I can say I manage our Ball collection full time. Unemployment has its perks.

    I work at ski resort and groom the ski trails at night and building terrain parks. Also work with snow guns. It just sucks that winter don't last year around, I am looking into some school in VT that offer ski resort management. That way I can work year around.

    I'm a buyer for a manufacturing company. Not exciting but it pays the bills.

    The F15 program is shutting down. E model F15s will still fly for some time, I am sure. The F22 budget was cut down, so we won't be getting as many as previously planned.

    It's a fun assignment. Operational Security and Communication Security are certainly top on the list.

    I am an Air Force 2A373 guy, or Tactical Aircraft Maintainer in layman's terms. I have 13.5 years of experience turning wrenches on F15s and this interesting 1 year of experience on the U2 Recon plane. It has been interesting and I have had some experiences that I will never forget. The majority of which most people will only ever see in movies.

    TBH, I am seriously looking forward to having a "regular person job" in 5.5 years.

    I am seriously jealous. Beyond snakes, aircraft (reading about them, learning about them, drawing them, getting my pilot's liscence, etc) are my hobby.

    I manage the Quality Assurance Department for a company called Defender Direct. We are the #1 dealers of ADT Security Systems and Dish Network in the nation. I get to make sure that all the sales reps, CS reps, anyone that talks on the phone, is doing what they're supposed to be doing. Basically, I'm the most hated person here... but, I don't care. I love my team. Great group of people, and this company also seems to be pretty recession proof. We were at 12% profit last year and are looking at hitting over 15% this year... and we just picked up another business partner. Some good stuff.
