    Re: Professions?

    I recentlly left my previous job as a Field Service Engineer and took a new job as an Advanced Generation Specialist. (Basically a Power Plant Electrical Engineer) Due to the fact my new job is actually supplying a service to the public instead of an industry I am not allowed to take the engineer title here as I know what I know from experience not a college degree. Pay is good. Hours are long. Stress is high. Rewards can be big. I hope to eventually work my way up to system generation specialist.

    Been in the U.S. Navy now for 12 years. I am a Chief mechanic on nuclear powered submarines. Alot of my job deals with Hydraulics, Pnuematics, Refrigeration and Amosphere Control. I also work as a ship control supervisor when we are at sea. Right now I am enjoying some shore duty, so I am not attached to a ship.

    Currently I work Security but what I really want to do is work with animals. I'm working on the police path to be a humane law enforcement officer with ASPCA or something similar...

    I work the guardhouse at Kohls.com full time. I log in and out all of the shipments.

    I also go to the University of Phoenix full time. I am working on my Associates degree in IT. After I receive this degree, I am going to start on my Bachelors in networking.

    Re: Professions?

    My main job is making custom lighting and modifying European lighting to CSA and UL standards for sale in Canada... but thats new. At the moment I am still training for it. It's fun. I get to work with tools all day (dad would be so impressed!).

    I also find European lighting lines to import into Canada.

    I also write, edit, and research (academia). Do not let my online writing fool you, I can write cogently if need be.

    ...Currently in grad school for Landscape Architecture. But During the summers I am a sales/design consultant for a hardscaping company around here. I also keep myself busy by doing some freelance design work on the side to help build my portfolio.
