What do you do for work?

Mostly I surf guitar porn and read this forum. Occasionally I have to fix a radar test set, then spend more time documenting the work than doing it.

I also daydream about working at PRS.

Then I go home.
 
Modeling and Simulation of Advanced Weapons Systems by Day....
A Job perhaps like "the Mike" with a small California Dept. by night and weekends for the past 16 years. ;)

Nice to go run around at night after days behind a desk! :D

I guess that makes me a ho.

Same here.

It says "graphic designer" on my business card (I have none left, made filters out of all) but I'm pretty sure I shouldn't be involved in production management and human resources. Or copywriting. Or handling packages.
 
I work in renewable energy building and assembling wind turbines before they get sent to site. I've not been in it too long but I was waiting for the right opportunity to get involved with this company and fingers crossed I can use it as a platform into the industry.
Big BIG toys, lifting and moving 76 ton sections of tower never gets old :rock:
lost 3 inches off my waistline too and feeling healthier with the sheer ammount of walking I do on our huge site
 
I run a hot melt coating machine at a printing company. It's awfully inspiring and rewarding work:rolleyes:
 
I've worked for the same real estate development company for 40 years and I'm the VP of Property Management. I am also President of a related HVAC company.

Yep, I am currently the only one at my Space Flight Center. I perform vibroacoustic analysis to predict the random vibration response for components on spacecraft. Occasionally, I'll serve as a test conductor for some of the hardware as it goes into our acoustic chamber. Here's a picture of the business end of the acoustic chamber.

The horns are 6 feet in diameter, and the chamber is 42 feet high. It's capable of sound pressures levels as high as 150 dB. The horns use liquid nitrogen as a powering fluid for the noise generators and consumes enough LN2 in a typical test to lower the atmospheric percentage of oxygen from 21% to 17% in the chamber.

BTW, I was at that launch, STS-125, which is the video pictured above. I was working as a bus captain escorting visitors at the launch site. One of the highlights of my career.
 
Tax guy. In house for a company in the oil and gas industry.

Strangely enough, when asked about my job I (almost) never get follow-up questions. :)
