Yet another computer guy. Software engineer for an Incredibly Big Monstrosity. I’d give you a call, Bill H., but my options aren’t vested yet. 
full time university student. majoring in computer information systems. currently a summer intern with U.S. District Courts.
Yet another pc tech here. I work for visa.
But then night comes…moon comes out…hair comes out…
Guitar gets strapped on and well you get the idea.
I do technical support for a company that makes research pharmaceuticals.
Basically I tell people how to use our products properly… and try to fix the messes they get themselves into.
I manage, provision & troubleshoot high speed data pipes for a well-known fortune-50 company that shall remain nameless, let’s just say it rhymes with “smell atlantic”.
My job is to troubleshoot data traffic issues, carrier outages & switch configurations. I spend a lot of time on the phone with major corporate accounts trying to make them understand why I can’t bring a T3/OC3/OC48/OC192/OC256 line down for testing just because their 56k frame relay circuit is down (an OC256 = 13.2 Gbps or about 170,000 56k customers).
Resulting from a recent merger with another company who’s name is an anagram of GET, I will belong to a brand-spanking new company that (I heard but haven’t confirmed) will start out in the fortune-10.
So why in the hell is my internet connection so damn slow?? :mad:
Breaking News! My company’s union contract expires on midnight 8/5 and the scum-sucking corporate hogs seem to think that absolutely no changes are deserved in a new contract. That seems reasonable- we’re wallowing in record-breaking profits this year. :rolleyes:
So don’t be shocked when you can’t load the Straight Dope on Sunday the 6th!
Oh, and I also surf the Board a bit between assignments, in case I stumble over non sequitirs, especially ones about me.
I believe in you, beatle! I swear that I do! Mom, apple pie, and beatle, I always say. (And, BTW, I don’t at all equate political leanings with religious belief.)
Well, time to chew a fellow lawyer’s leg off (change of venue? I got yer change of venue right here).
Carry on; interesting thread.
What sort of frequency does your industry control, LouisB?
Could you control the frequency at which I use the restroom? I belong to the teeny weeny bladder club.
Hey N-man, I just wanted to clarify MY job. I work for the RAB, and I write “Radio Sales Today.” Any of your station’s sales guys ever leave a copy of it in the can?
I audit PCs for a major computer firm.
I beat out the chimp because I don’t fling my feces at people.
from CnoteChris:
It would be almost exactly like KMG365, only on the other side of the country, and not made as popular by Johnny and Roy. If you punch that callsign into the FCC’s Land/Mobile Database, it will return the information for my department. Also, if you put in KMG365, you’ll get LACFD’s information. What a wonderful age we live in when you can get this stuff…
I am a call-coordinator. I work for a large software company taking calls and processing e-mails for the Customer Support Department.
I am also going to community college part-time in the evenings. I’m vacillating between English and Psychology as a major. Of course, it’s going to take me about 7 years to get to the university level at the rate I’m going, so I’ll have plenty of time to decide!
I’m a university graduate with a degree in History and Greek and Roman Civilisation. With this degree I got a Job in a Cyber Café (well used or what?).
I spend my days surfin’ the net for free, taking part in the SDMB and playing games…AND GETTING PAID FOR IT!!!
Unfortunately customers keep interupting me.
I’m a sedimentary geologist, which means that when I’m lucky I get to play outside all day and hit rocks with a hammer. It’s great for getting frustrations out. 
But lately I’ve been learning the nuts and bolts of computer climate models for paleoclimate reconstructions.
Ceejaytee - Do you work for MBCo? I used to several years ago, in the Business Law dept.
Doctor of Birdology in the Department of Bird Food at Ruthless U. (read ornithologist in an entomology department at an NJ University).
Also their LAN Admin/tech support, statistical consultant and webmistress. Jobs 2 and 3 make me eligible for Department Curmudgeon.
I’m sharing unprotected electrons with lots of tech-types here. Is it safe?
I’m one of the few here who has to resort to accessing SD on my own time as opposed to while my meter is running.
Oh well, while you entrust your safety to the crew on your next airline flight, think about how many newspapers a pilot can read in one day. My record is five.
Cheers Mike
"You screw up just this much and you’ll find yourself flying a cargo plane full of rubber dogshit out of Hong Kong!
second occupation is "Food Distribution Unit Number 2"for a six-year old and three-year old
third occupation is youth hockey coach
Does “between” count as a job title?
It involves drinking beer, spending time on the computer, drinking beer, more SDMB and more beer.
The screen is going fuzzy, I’m nott ssure what’s corsingg itt.
Third year medical student.
It still feels good to say it.
Dr. J
Auto Parts Counterperson. All you smart people know that to get the right part you need to give the nice person behind the counter the right information. I don’t drive your car, why should I know what engine, tranny, braking system,etc. is in your car! Thank you for letting me vent. MTS
Capitalist Pig.
