    Airport managemnent, ie.: Operations specialist. We coordinate all the aircraft emergencies that arrive or depart from the airport with the appropriate agencies. Normally it's cleaning up parts and pieces off the runway. Haha. We also are responsible for Aircraft Fire Rescue, airport security, airfield maintenance, etc. The list goes on. I get to see alot if cool stuff.

    I also own my own business, installing window tint and clear bra on vehicles as well as residential and commercial. I'll extend the friends discount to you guys.

    Driving planes and trains!!!! - Sounds like fun.

    I am getting more enthusiastic for it again and putting something together again.

    For work now I am in technology development for a semiconductor manufacturing firm.

    I write code to control test equipment that measures electrical
    characteristics of microscopic semiconductor (chip) circuits.

    Nothin' now, I got fired today.

    Not a bad thing tho, I really hated that job.

    But here's some advice... boss types don't like it when you ask the person on the phone "are you retarded?"

    Haha, oh man, sorry to hear that. I got laid off for looking at Silencertalk and AR15.com. Sure I wasn't as productive as I should have been, but they really blew things out of proportion.

    I remember one of my buddies I worked with asking someone "Are you on crack?!" when a person was yelling at him.
