I work as a Liaison Engineer for Boeing Commercial Aircraft. Basically, when something goes wrong with the plane I tell them how to fix it. I have worked as an engineer for 14 years and was in the Marine Corps prior to that.
^^ What's with these cracks on the wings on these new dream liners? Damn the mistsubishi sub contractors!
Are you going to be involved in the missing airliner over in Vietnam?
Nice! Congrats
The Japanese actually outperform most of our suppliers by all track able metrics! Not sure what the deal is with the fatigue failures... I haven't been involved with this issue, I will speculate over a few beers next time I'm up your way.
Nah, the AOG Team is a union protected job function, so Charleston can't get involved. I thought they hadn't officially found it yet?
They haven't found it

Simple answer:
I work with computers
Complex answer:
I am a IT and storage administrator at NetApp.
The OMG-that-is-too-much-information answer:
I am an Senior Datacenter Support Engineer for NetApp's internal Engineering and Development teams. My primary role is to maintain enterprise class storage solutions for the ONTAP build team, manage shared resources and virtual center infrastructure, deploy and decommission filers/shelves, handle daily alerts and messages, and automate any complex processes and procedures. I am a huge fan of Debian (Ubuntu or Xubuntu) and spend 95% of my time in a CLI environment. I avoid Microsoft products as much as possible, otherwise I am cursing loudly from using the gawd awful point-doubleclick-and-wait. I work with NIS, NFS, CIFS, and SAN and maintain many petabytes of storage. I just upgraded our backup solution with 216 terabytes of raid-dp storage and it's not even close to capacity.
Other hobbies include:
Home improvement projects
Photography
Landscaping
Mountain biking
Working on the Land Cruiser
Computers
Home theater
Working on the GTI
Beer drinkin
Trading stocks
I think that's it.
At this time, I have avoided motorcycles, road biking, and guns because 1) I have too many hobbies now (look at the expensive list above) and 2) I've had too many friends hurt or killed on a bike, road biking is simply dangerous, and guns are FUN and I would want many.

Wife is changing mess halls. Military guys will understand.
this just fell into my hands. Couldent pass it up. And thank you!
I work on crazy stuff. Everything from a simple 9k lb fork lift to a 160 ton iron shear. Throw 11 excavators, 4 front end loaders, some metal balers, and anything else you can imagine at a scrap yard and you now know exactly what I do!!

Spent most of the last 35+ years as an outside sales rep, lastly as a District Sales Manger for Robert Bosch Power Tool Corp. Bosch and I parted ways in 2005 and I opened my own woodworking company which I ran for 10 1/2 years. I sold the business earlier this year and am now languishing as a retired individual. I have been helping my wife who has some difficult health issues and working to fix the 40 I bought last October. I am to young to be a Wal-Mart greeter and to old to find another good job so here I sit. Sorry I can't offer anything more to the group. But I do enjoy being around other 40 owners and learning from their experiences.
I'm an actuary. I currently analyze the risk of universal life insurance for MetLife, or more bluntly I'm a spreadsheet monkey. Pay is good. Work is good. But sitting at a desk all day is boring.
This is what I would ideally like to do. No woodworking knowledge but I just inherited an almost complete shop from my grandfather. Need to find a place to set it up though.
