So...what's ur occupation?

Re: So...what's ur occupation?

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Torfinn</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I never weighed in here I'll get on it.

I'm an IT analyst for a company Older than dirt that's larger than most countries governments.

I support several various types of offices for another company that got it's start with telegraphs primarily from a remote location, although I do occasionally get to work around town here in Portland.

I do everything from different types of network support to security patching catch-up down to nominal desktop support roles.

Kind of a junior Lindy wanna-be if you will.

I'm also a student re-assesing my career and heading for the Engineering field.

I hope to use all this to write a ton of patents on things I invent at somepoint, and then sit back and collect checks and shoot rifles all day.

Whether this is possible or not will only tell with time.

For now it's ramen and reloading to keep the dream alive.

I haven't personally mastered spoon bending myself. However I've been studying the art from DVD's I purchased off of Amazon.com and am an enthusiastic student.

I do however know a card trick that works 1/3rd of the time. The 1/3rd that it does work has never failed to impress women, and occasionally they'll overlook my attempts to get them drunk during the card trick and feel affectionately towards me.

This is my pathway to success.

I'll jump in with Torfinn, although I cannot bend spoons (without my hands anyway)
I think we may be employed by the same company.
I am a program manager for a large defense contractor, building large composite components for a very large air-vehicle some of you Marines have been inserted/extracted on.

Re: So...what's ur occupation?

I'm a middle man for a small communications company. If somethin' goes right, I'm in the middle of it. If somethin' goes wrong, I get drug into the middle of it. If they order somethin', I'm in the middle of it. If it's designed, middle. You get it. Mostly I babysit the younger guys that don't know how easy they have it. Miss the old days of just pulling wire and takin' orders. Oh yea, I'm surfing gun porn when nobody's looking

This is my chainsaw. There are many like it but this one is mine. My chainsaw and I are the guardians of My utility & My job. My chainsaw must be sharp, and cut faster than the trees can grow into the wires. IT WILL BE. My chainsaw is only as devastating as I can make it, and if become unable to inflict maximum carnage on every green stick that attempts to dishonor our sacred conductors, My chainsaw shall seek out and find an operator worthy of it's awesome, catastrophic & destructive power. So Help Me God.
