Who Is Your Daddy and What Does He Do?

[Switch]

I'm starting this thread to see what everyone does.

Explain what you do and where you work if you can.

Pics are a plus.

So I am a Systems Engineer for a "Test-Lab." We do proof-of-concept stuff for a government agency. Right now I am working on a 64-node something (I say something because I can't say what it is).

Here is a pic of my "desk".

I used to have a Stoner poster up that I got at Indy (you can see it in the bottom left of the pic) but they asked me to take it down. Poop.


This is my cool whiteboard... I put stuff on it:

This is someone else's whiteboard that I drew a JAWESOME Shark on. Someone had written "Everyone in here is _____", so I filled in the blank and drew the shark. Then someone else came and drew a dog with a nutsack on his head or something:

This is the button I push if my coworker is being killed by one of our 16 50-Amp Circuits (I took this pic mainly for Trippy-poo).

This is the Datacenter, albeit small. The black racks are for blades and the grey racks are our EMC SANs.

http://lh4.ggpht.com/kylebubp/SO6Y0X1wcII/AAAAAAAAAxo/3kyYg6S6vDU/s800/IMG_3675.JPG

Here are two racks with 4 chassis and 32 blades with a combined total of 128 Processors, 512 Cores, 1 TB of RAM and 1,638.4 GHz of computing power. I dunno if there is such a thing as THz, but it would be 1.6 THz if there were. Oh yeah, there are two more racks to my back, so just double all those numbers for a good picture of whats goin on.

http://lh6.ggpht.com/kylebubp/SO6Y2TuGsII/AAAAAAAAAxw/sEfqE4hu1K8/s800/IMG_3676.JPG

This is the back of a rack with 2 Chasses in it. I cabled this and I like clean cabling (and zip-ties).

http://lh6.ggpht.com/kylebubp/SO6YtzxcbII/AAAAAAAAAw8/o0BSK-8fjoI/s800/IMG_3670.JPG

This is the inside of a blade. 4-Quad Core Pentium Xeon Processors @ 3.2GHz each core. 32 GB of RAM and a Dual Channel Fiber HBA to boot from SAN and map storage to the blade from the SAN.

Holy crap I don't think I could work in a cubicle. I'd do this if I did...

(Actually sounds like you get to do cool stuff so it's okay)

I currently work for a subcontracting company for AT&T/Bellsouth. I'm techically called a "Flagger/Line Assist" which basically means I sleep in an A/C truck all day. I don't make much but it allows me to get off at 4pm everyday for evening classes (Going to become a radiographer/x-ray tech) and to do my homework while at work.

But we often goof off. I'll get on hooks and climb telephone polls 30ft up in the air with no safety stuff just for fun. Best part is I'm better than a lot of the actual AT&T linemen at climbing.

I do get to go with the dig crews sometimes and I'll run the backhoes (You ain't lived until you played excavator boxing).

These are some older pics but you get the idea...

Don't mind the editing. :lol: I don't really have any work pics without kids in them and no way would I ever put a child's pic on the internet! :panic:

I am the breaker component engineer with TVA. I monitor the breaker program to make sure they work correctly everytime and assist the craft as the component specialist when they need a suspected damaged part inspected.

I'm not allowed to take pics at work.

This is kinda like the breakers we have, but not really.

[PhiSig1071]

OK, here goes. I actually work about five jobs.

I am a Commercial Boat Captain and Salvage Diver for Sea Tow. Basically Sea Tow is like Triple A on the water, you break down, run out of gas, run aground, I come save the day. Your boat sinks, and I grab some scuba gear, dive down, hook lift bags to your boat, float it, pump it dry, and get salvage rights to the boat.

I am also a MSF, FRTP and JSMSP certified RiderCoach. I work for a company called Patriot Motorcycle Training, I teach Basic Rider Courses, Experienced Rider Courses, and Private Lessons.

I am an On-Call Captain and Divemaster for Outreach Sailing Adventures. We operate a '60 Gaff Rigged Schooner, a remake of a 1833 Pilot Schooner, called "Momentum". We run day sails, sunset sails, star sails, also eco adventures/Dolphin tours and occasionally archeological diving trips. If they have enough people on board then I go out with them and help run the boat. Also I'm on board if they're running a dive trip because I am a Divemaster.

I am also an on-call Captain for the Water Taxis that run on the St. Johns River in downtown Jacksonville, and an on-call Captain for Sun-Cruz Casinos.

I stay busy. Idle hands are the devils workshop, and the devil has a lot of work for me!

[Smittie61984]

I hear ya.

Now that I see more involved it does look better. I just saw the corner cubicle.

Buddy of mine works for a Firearm training simulator company that takes real weapons and converts them to laser guns that fire blanks and feel fairly real. He showed me a picture of a guy in a nice 3button shirt that was tucked into his greenish dress pants with his brown loafers in a cubicle style enviroment. Except he had 7 Bazookas on his back!

PhiSig so far wins with the coolest job.

[Captain Morgan]

Holy crap I don't think I could work in a cubicle. I'd do this if I did...

I work in a cubicle, and sometimes feel like doing that (especially lately). I can't say where I work, but I'm a stock broker. Not in the cool sense of getting to sell stocks to people and making a bunch of money off commission, but legally, I'm a stock broker. In reality, I'm customer service rep in a call center, but I have a cool title. I get to sit at a desk all day long with a headset on my head and talk to people about the market, help them place trades, answer questions about how to place a trade or what a certain type of trade is, explain options trading to them, explain why the market is down and take questions about why their account looks weird (or looked weird when they looked at it two weeks ago sometime around midnight but they can't remember exactly what it was, but they swear something was wrong and I need to go back in time and travel to their house and look at their computer and tell them what in the world happened...).

However, lately, I've been fielding tons of questions about the safety of their money. I've quoted FDIC and SIPC so much that I could do it in my sleep. I swear, people need to quit panicking. Yes, things are bad, but for crying out loud, it's not THAT bad. The market will turn around, as it's done every time in the past. If you don't need your money for the next 2 or 3 years (maybe a bit longer now), then stop selling things off. You're only making it worse for yourself and everybody else. I think the damn media is partly to blame at this point. There is so much emotion involved in the market and the media just adds to it. Really makes me want to go off like the guy in that video.

Speaking of which, why the hell did everyone just stand around? GTFO the door or get a couple people and jump the guy. I like how one guy comes through the door and wrestles the dude, but nobody fucking helps. Either jump on the pile, or head for the door now that he's distracted (since you were too stupid to get out or jump him in the first place).

[JoJoYZF]

I work at Home Depot as a Flooring Specialist, basically I set up installs for all kinds of floors, tell customers how to do their projects and maintain aisles. Nothing exciting but the pay is alright for a job to hold me over until I graduate and get a real job. Plus I get 5k a year in tuition reimbursement.

[Switch]

Plus I get 5k a year in tuition reimbursement.

That's 5k a year more than I get at my "real job".

[JoJoYZF]

That's 5k a year more than I get at my "real job".

I actually got lucky and got grandfathered into the old rules. Now your major has to pertain to advancing at HD and you have to work 40 hours a week. I get the full amount of money but I only have to work 8 hours a week (I usually am close to 30 anyway) and my major is criminal justice. Cant complain.

It turns out that it was fake. You can tell by A) it being lunch time (Noon) and no one was leaving and B) none of hte monitors where attached to anything.

My buddy and I were talking about the market stuff today. I have a very small understanding of how the stock market works. My best guess is you basically give money to a company and say "Hey use this money to make more money". And when/if they do you get a reward for your investment.

But it seems like a lot of this stuff is almost a self-fulfilling prophecy. Because people started screaming "The sky is falling" and yanking their money out of everything it did create a crisis. I'm betting if people just chilled we'd be a lot better off.

Of course I know very little about HOW the economy works but I'm failry keen on I guess the "Theory" of how economics work.

[ceo012384]

I am in grad school for mechanical engineering, trying to finish up my research and thesis so I can start my life.

I have been studying acoustics and my research is in developing a diagnostic instrument for two-phase flows (read: bubbly liquids), more specifically, liquid mercury and helium gas.

I am currently in the process of moving all my experiments to a different lab in the building in order to use a chemical hood so I can start using liquid mercury. I have finished all my validation tests with water and am now ready for the real/final tests. After I do some tests here, I will be taking the whole setup to the government lab that is paying us to do the research and implementing it into their facility.

Baggage Handler at CVG. We're downsizing at a rapid pace so I don't know how much longer I'll be there.
Pay is shit and working outside in the winter blows but I've flown first class, for free to Russia, Poland, France, Spain and Ireland. And several cross country tips too.

[smileyman]

I am a loan officer for a state chartered community bank. I do it all from taking loan applications of mortgage, auto, small business, personal loans, process approvals and denials, close loans, collect bad loans, maintain insurance coverage, report to management on the administration of the loan portfolio.

Over the last 15 years I have managed portfolio's from 1200 loans to 300 loans with outstanding debts of $1 million to $30 million. (Doesn't sound like all that much that is a ton of consumer type loans). I am not on commission and the pay isn't what you might think, but there are perks (like being able to surf the net all day), flex scheduling, free coffee...Oh and I have the most beautiful secretary...

[the chi]

I am a Commercial Property Manager by day which = shopping center landlord. I wear many hats and have a pretty cool job. Pay could be better, but its flexible for me. If i want to work inside, i use my office, if I want out, I go outside and play on my properties. I climb on roofs, into tiny holes, play in A/C units, work on plumbing, landscape coordinate, and the list goes on.

By night I am a bartender at a local club, I work my rear off for tips, get hit on, fend off drunk people and dance like a retard while making decent cash to make ends meet.

[Shift]

Im a bum. :idk:

However I did just get my A.S in Pre-Engineering last year so at least in about a year and a half I'll have a decent job when I get my B.S in EE.

I'm a male escort, I work the corner of Murfreesboro and Spenc lane most evenings. I take Male clients mostly and some transvestites on ocassion. I try to make them use condoms but most don't give a fuck. I have been raped and robbed (at the same time) and find my job to be very fulfilling!

Come on down and drive slow, I'm sure to run up to your car and ask if you are looking for a good time.



And yes this thread is a lame attempt to boost your ego folks...

Seriously, Im not gonna be crushed if somebody has a better job then me or makes more money than me. My ego doesnt play a role in what job I want to have or currently have. Right now I work for money and because the job is pretty decent, then Ill be working doing what I want to do for pretty good money.

[smileyman]

My job is the most humbling, ego crushing thing in the world...Constantly having to ask permission to extend credit or waive fees, collecting money from people I would ordinarily like to just give money to. Denying people who deserve credit just because my bank thinks they are not a profitable investment. I feel dirty alot.

You know I used to feel really dirty when I would take a check at closing for more than a borrower who was a cashout refi and My check was way more than theres... Also banging hard on a new (read money dumm) homeowner always gave me a little guilty when cashing said large checks. Spending it though I forgot all about there ass.

My new job (street walking) is much more fulfilling and I feel like I get to give a little back to my town in my own little way.

[OneSickPsycho]

Branch Manager for a call center... I schmooze with clients, strategize call plans, create budgets, hire people, fire people, manage 16 direct report supervisors and 80-100 agents at any point in time. Under-paid, over-worked, and hardly recognized. At least I have my own office.

[Mr Lefty]

that's just what you get paid for...

people... he forgot to mention he also has direct supervision over 14 prior strippers, 2 former prostitutes, and 3 hooters watresses (he likes the wings)

granted... not all are still alive... and supervision duty isn't difficult when they'er in 14' deep pits...

but he provides meals, water, and loation to put on their skin...

[Cutty72]

Does it have GPS????

yup.
if you look at the outside pic, the globe on the cab is the reciever.

in this pic, the far left screen controls the steering, while the screen to the right of it maps out the field as I apply the fertilizer and controls the rate being applied.

[PhiSig1071]

I would ride to work every day. That corner would be my office!

[jeeps84]

Nothing but corners on the parkway. The 35 & 45 MPH limit sux. Heavily patrolled and federal offense too get caught. I stick to the roads leading to the park.

Last time I had it on the road. I got harassed by the PD thinking it was one of the cheap pocket bikes. Then they tried to right me up for no tag or insurance. I had to prove it was only 49cc with the magistrate to get out of ticket.

[PhiSig1071]

Fun.

Sometimes people piss me off.

Don't get to do it fast legally on two wheels (but then again I am with Jeeps :whistle:) but have done it purdy fast in a crown vic interceptor. Still purdy fun :lol:

I am also a Loss Prevention Officer for Kmart.... I catch shoplifters. This is my favorite job. It's a really big adrenline rush to catch people with this........

Sorry no pics of any of the jobs.... Maybe I will have Cutty come up one night that I am bartending and snap some shots of me in action!!!!!!!

[Rider]

I'm a systems engineer designing complex aircraft electronics, including navigation computers, flight deck displays, and computing platforms. For the most part I sit in a cubicle and write system and software level requirements. Occasionally I need to run down to the systems integration lab and test some flight software. As far as where I work.... I work for the largest company in the world... If you want detailed info on what I do, Google Flight Management Systems and EFIS displays.

That's a pretty hi tech tractor Cutty :dthumb: My in laws' farm is only about 100 acres so the "big tractor" is a White 105 :whistle:


I'm a machinist and work on little lathes like this. It's 60 hp with a 21" hydraulic chuck and a 12 station tool changer.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v78/JRD77VET/DCP_1809.jpg

That's a centrifugal stainless steel casting for a nuclear plant. It's 60" long, 30" in diameter and weighs over 5500 lbs. The plain, raw casting cost over $25,000.

Here's a part that was made for a pharmaceutical company.

Hey Cutty, I'm curious, what do you grow?

[Cutty72]

Hey Cutty, I'm curious, what do you grow?

First, I'm just working for a farmer, so that half a million dollars worth of equipment is entrusted to me, but not owned by me.

We just have corn this year, next year it will be corn and soybeans.

The rig pictured we use to appy fertilizer for ourselves and custom work.

[PhiSig1071]

:lol: Hey, I like corn and soybeans! :dthumb:

[OTB]

I'm a vocational instructor at a "Level 5" secondary school in Baltimore. I teach culinary arts and lifeskills to violence prone children who have been tossed out of the regular school system for violent attacks on peers and/or teachers/staff. Most of our kids are victims of sexual and/or physical abuse from family. Most are not living in the family home; they are either living in group homes, or are wards of the state because they are so unmanageable they cannot be placed in foster care.

We are a "hands on" school, meaning unlike in the public school, we are allowed to physically confront and/or restrain kids that are acting out. ALL staff are trained in self defense, first aid and cpr and safe methods of restraining violent adolescents. Staff is a close knit group.

Sorry, no pics allowed.

My wife and I also own a furniture/gift store, so when I am not teaching, I'm managing our warehouse and delivering furniture around the Baltimore- Washington area, updating our computers and network, or selling, installing and servicing POS systems to foodservices and restaurants.

When I have free time I buy and sell motorcycles for fun and profit, and once in a great while I actually ride one......but not often.

[VatorMan]

I work at NIST-National Institute for Standards and Technology. I am the Fire Alarm and Power Management Systems Administrator. I also dabble in contract management and implementation.

Basically I work hard to make sure your $$$ are spent in a wise and reasonable fashion. I am known as the enforcer-the guy that will backcharge a contractor for not following the contact.

[Katherine]

I'm a glorified paper pusher, babysitter, and fireman.

[Mr Lefty]

fuck that closet is HORRIBLE. our closet here was that bad when I got here... lasted 1 weekend... I litteraly unplugged EVERYTHING... then re wired it all... I fuck'n hate going through rat nests like that.

I can't take pics at my job... damn SIPR (Secure network) server and router keep us from doing so.

['73 H1 Triple]

Huh, that's pretty cool!

Those are cool pics, Jeff.

Not everything I make is cool. I just spent the last week making outriggers for portable drilling trucks. ( like the stabilizing legs for portable cranes )

The job I started today is a rolling stand for helicopter engines. Since it's a gov't job ( Navy ), every boxed dimension on the print must be recorded including time & temp.

Neat part but a PITA with all the documentation required.
