I'm a Sr. Hardware Design Engineer for the "really big" company out in Hillsboro. Our group does board products with server grade networking interfaces. Which is to say, we do 1 and 10 Gigabit optical and copper ethernet ports in various flavors. Stuff you can buy for your server, propriatary form factors for most all of the big OEM's.

When you stream your movies, shop at most big on line retailers, or use pretty much any of the big social networking sites....chances are really good you're using hardware that our group or even yours truly designed.....:-)

Just retired from a 22 year stint with the Feds doing secure comms and some "spookiness" thrown in for fun.

Now I be a lazy old fart who does what he wants, when he wants!

I used to work at US Xpress. Trucking can be a tough gig.

I now work in Finance as an Intern at the Chattanooga, TN plan for Volkswagen. I'm going fulltime soon as a Budgeting and Forecasting specialist, though :-)

I am a choir director/general music teacher at a middle school in southern Delaware, and I teach private voice and brass lessons for the Music School of Delaware.

My wife and I are praying that God opens a door in the Hagerstown area of Maryland. We know that there is a high school band position, (what I really want and am best trained for,) opening in souther central PA, (about 15 minutes west of Gettysburg.)

Time will tell.

Trained as a paramedic. Did that on and off for 7 years, now I am a Rhythm Analysis Technician, or Monitor Technician.

Basically, I sit in a room for 12 hours a day watching heart rates for up to 48 (soon to be expanding to 60) patients, and report abnormalities to the nurses.

I work in Telecom as a Technical Support Engineer. The control center calls us if they can't fix something and we call the vendor if we can't fix it. We support all the transport equipment (fiber optic backbone).
I learn something new everyday, even after 10 years.
