Now don't laugh, because this is true.

I was an Automatic Screw Machine Operator. Acme-Gridley mostly. Retired now.

Did these have the old telephone-switchboard style controls?
I always amazed me that people could actually program those things.
We had an old one in our shop for awhile, smaller one, ran up to 3/4" or something like that.

I hope she doesn't mind me saying this, but Freespirit is a gifted and talented designer of exceptionally beautiful furniture and has done more for animals than almost anyone I've ever known except Doris Day and Betty White. She use to rescue abandoned dogs from some of the most gang invested streets in Los Angeles County. I took out a Life Insurance Policy hoping to make some easy money--no such luck.

Trained as a Nurseryman, Worked as a Landscaper, retrained as a PC Tech. Drafted by the local school to teach in the Greenhouse. Lady Luck was watching over me. Growing Plants and children beats the heck out of repairing hardware.

Six months away from having a degree in Electronic Engineering (does that meant I'll have to change my name to just plain "Smelly"?).
However, I'm going to be working in IT - mostly systems & network support, but also an amount of web design & scripting. We're only a small company, so we tend to take on whatever's going :-)

I’m a trained production team leader (foreman). My last job we built fiber-optic cable from the ground up, but of course that evaporated with the tech-comm implosion. I’m surviving now with the pc repair skills I’ve learned hanging out here (and there). The economy here is bad and getting worse. Sooner or later something is going to have to go my way.WALDO

Im a mechanic I work on anything from whipper snippers to heavy earthmoving machinery,the last few months I've been maintaining light vehicles for a coal mining contractor. If youve seen one Landcruiser youve seen em all.

last week i was an IS engineer / network administrator. this week i'm an unemployed bum, and getting one year older. next week i'll be a support engineer for enterprise firewall software. week after that i hope to be the same.

I just put in for a management training position at my night job, so maybe I'll hear about it. I might not though, because I kept getting a VB scripting error every time I submitted it. I submitted it twice with the same result, so I figured "If it goes through, it goes through - if it doesn't, it doesn't". :\

>last week i was an IS engineer / network administrator. this

Happy Birthday and many more.
