What do you do for work

[whitlock87]

I worked on the F-14 for 30 yrs, mostly writing software for the Weapon Control System computer. Really fun, almost like a giant video game. They retired the darn thing before I could. ....

My brother in-law was in the same boat as, but with the USN. He put in 32 years . He specialized in the F14. his last 3 years where as the Masterchief for the Blue Angles. Then they wanted him to take a desk job. He now works for some company that takes care of the fighter jet for Malaysia ( they still have a few F-14 that fly. )

Photolithograhy Process Engineer, Chances are your cell-phone or vehicle that you drive has a micro-processor chip that I have a hand in developing and manufacturing.

I didn't know Malaysia had any F-14s. We sold some to Iran before their last change in government.

Air Force office here in Las Vegas and no they haven't told me where the aliens are hidden.

How come I've never met all of you Vegas people? There's two other people I go out with from time to time that are in the Air Force as well.

We prefer GEEK. ;-)

Yup, I agree.... Nerds are those with birth control glasses with medical tape on the bridge.... Did I mention a pocket protector in your shirt?????

I never said I could make it, just trying to help the out of towners find the place . I know I'll catch grief for this one but it was an anniversary night last night so I was a little busy making sure I can still make it on Saturday.

I also work in IT, but on the support side, I manage a small technical helpdesk/systems monitoring/communications team for First American Flood Data Services. We provide flood determinations for mortgage companies and we most likely did yours when you bought your house or refinanced.

I work in Business Intelligence for the Government. Yeah, I know- an oxymoron.

Basically, I make data usable. I'm an Oracle DBA, and I develop reporting applications for consumption in the Texas Dept. of State Health Services and the Texas Dept. of Aging and Disability Services. I'm currently developing a new solution to our reporting needs with Business Objects Enterprise, for approximately 1500 users in the two agencies.

Probably heading back to the private sector in the next 6 months.

Soon to be SAP.

Soon to be my employer.

They made the announcement on Monday, but BO is still going to retain a separate identity, and operate under the "SAP Group." I was worried about the whole thing when oracle was trying to acquire them, since that would have restricted them to only oracle as a data source. However, SAP is platform independent, and as such can run on just about any database. Plus, bobjects has been developing SAP solutions for years. Basically, a 1.2 Billion/year company now gets to leverage the resources of a 12.1 Billion/year company. I look at it like Dell acquired Alienware.

I'm a project manager for an engineering firm that provides design and engineering services for everything from autos to hardware and everything in between.
