So What Do We Do For A Job?
 

Always interests me what sort of cross section of people we have on these forums and what we do for a living...............there's always I.T. gods somewhere!

Me................well............I'm of the old school, however I had to succumb to using a PC everyday.

I'm a time-served Toolmaker by trade, started in the Aerospace industry when it was space and defence back in '81.

Worked for a race team building and developing race bikes for all classes up to 750 Superbikes and Isle of Man TT races. Also did R&D work on BTCC back in the early 90's.

I'm also a qualified engineer, a Master of Science they say! Not bad for a metal maggot!

Progressed as a development engineer working on process automation equipment and robotics. Then became a design engineer designing airbag assembly cells and nuclear de-commissioning robots.

Currently the Engineering Project Manager for a company based in Aldershot, here where I'm responsible for the design and project management of their automated welding machines, we are talking biggies that can weld forge dies at around 10tons and large steel rolls up to 4 metres in diameter!

im a ramp operations supervisor for aviance at edinburgh airport
basically im in charge of the planes turnaround from the amount of bags going on to dangerous chemicals, live animals, fire arms ,ammo,
taking bags off of the plane and making sure they go to the reclaim belts in plenty time, then there is the security side of it and the safety side of it, right down to pushing the aircraft and positioning it in the taxi way

Impressive Stevie, alot of responsibility there, you must enjoy that.

i work for the government :D

Okay...............are we MIB then?

007 style....:D

I work in the ATM industry, we install, remove, renovate, repair in the field etc. Also do a bit of Freight Forwarding as well, worked in Freight forwarding for 20 odd years (7 years with my own company) before moving into the ATM industry..

its interesting to say the least especialy with all these terrorist threats going on its only a matter of time before we get hit its like any job tho after a while it becomes routine you have good days and bad days plus with the wet summer we are having its not much fun just now:rant:
