What do you do?

[BPTactical]

You know what I do....

[fj605]

Drilling Tech for a Denver-based oil company. The bulk of my job is well design and survey management. Sprinkle in some regulatory paperwork and drilling performance analysis and that's my job in a nutshell.

I'm not qualified to be hanging out with most of the people on this forum. There are some smart people on here.

No shit. I’m in the same boat. Me can’t brain, me gots the dumb.

[GilpinGuy]

I too am professional adult daycare provider

Yeah, me too. Casinos are basically a carnival/daycare for adults. Then there's the employees.

[Little Dutch]

Manage/all the cloud based software for Dish. Mainly focus on Servicenow, Slack, and Office 365 with some CA Rally, Okta, and Workfront Sprinkled on top.

I hate slack and everyone who has time to post in the random channel. Also git. Git sucks.

So, in other words you sell propane & propane accessories ?

AAHHHHHHHH!! NO! Natural gas is NOT the same as clean-burning, comfortable, efficient propane, Bob! Geez...

Network "Engineer" (put in quotes for you actual engineers who get pissy about IT guys claiming engineer status )/24x7 Network Operations Team lead.

I went from my first day at my first IT job to somehow securing the team lead slot for the network operations team in 3 years less one week. I'm not amazing. I don't get how it happened that fast, other than the senior guys were smart enough to know they didn't want the position. So I basically defer issues to vendors and herd cats, my favorite of which is a Vietnam/Combat/Marine Corps vet who is, frankly, insane.

Before IT I was a student/did odd jobs for a general contractor/construction company.

Prior to that, I was a 19D in the Army.

Yeah...I used to work for that company. I was voted off the island as they started (and continue) to circle the bowl...

Hopefully I'm better protected than I was. For years I was the only person on a procurement team not actually located in Taipei, and just landed this gig this year. I'm the only one doing this for the company, and since my parts going into every computer they need someone looking after it.

[JohnnyDrama]

Mostly I'm an archaeologist. I just got off an eight day camping trip in Utah where I went to check places like this...



Most of the work isn't that cool. A lot of my work involves sitting in the cab of a pickup watching other people work and doing paperwork.

When there isn't archaeology to deal with the local school district keeps me busy as a substitute teacher.

Also git. Git sucks.

Crap. Don't get me started on Git.
