    I'm a mechanical engineering technologist and work as a General Manager for a small maintenance and reliability consulting company for the past 5 years.   I previously worked for a couple of the major centrifugal pump companies for 10 years (pipeline, refinery, oil and gas, petrochemical, etc).

    Full-time college student....Ah, the joys of schooling... :eek4:  I suppose you'd want to know what I plan on doing...Well, my Mechanical Engineering major got swept away after the first semester (dang that stuff was hard!), so now I'm looking at Business Administration with an emphasis on International Marketing/Business.  I just need to learn German and finish up my last couple credits for Spanish and I should be set. :thumbsup:

    Well I was a pressman at a printing company for 18 years before it closed down. I was a quality auditor for the company I work for now for a year and now a team leader in the molding department which can really have some bad days.

    Retired police officer, presently selling car parts at Car Quest. As of May 5th I'm going to try retirement again. The wife graduates from nursing school on May 5th and I'm going to stay home and take care of our 4 and 5 year old granddaughters. Guess you could say I'll be Mr. Mom! At least I'll have more time to work on the Cuda! :woo:

    Great thread OS!

    I'm a '04 Mechanical Engineering graduate working towards my P. Eng. I worked during university for Goodyear in their tooling department for 4 months (cool job!), and worked on a major offshore FPSO (Floating Production Storage Offloading) oilfield project for 8 months.

    I am currently consulting under my own company name for a  directional drilling company which contracts me to run downhole survey tools on land based driling rigs. Not really engineering but they seem to want to hire engineers...I have plans to get back into an engineering design based job when the opportunity arises.

    Currently, I am doing sales type work on the phone. It's pretty soft selling with almost all people that I talk with are receptive to what we are doing. No, I am not a telemarketer. This is survey type work. The pay is fair, could be better.  The boss called me last week and said "Look, I know and you know that you are gonna leave for better pastures, but for now keep up the great work you are doing."
    Right now, I'm one of his top guys there.  So I am looking for something bigger and better that requires selling on the phone. My biggest problem in making the leap to a better paying job is that I don't have Microsoft Office skills that the good phone sales jobs, ie: (customer service.) I have seen a lot of good jobs get past me because I lack that experience. So I need to learn it real soon and get good at it fast.  :bricks1:
