We have them at least every couple of months. Unfortunately, it's to the point when we hear it we all look around and say: Anyone gonna leave this time? :p

Thats the way it was at my last job. It was pretty funny. We would just stare outside and look at all the ppl just standing around waiting for the ok to come back in. Then they started doing that close to lunch time and we would just leave for lunch instead of waiting around.

That sounds amazing! I'm studying Aerospace Engineering at the University of Michigan. Any details about your projects or info about the field in general would be sweet!

This is a cool thread! A lot of unexpected professions in here. An honest to God rocket scientist! How cool is that.

Anyways, I'm a Network Administrator for three manufacturing plants here in the states. It's nice to see other geeks like me here. :tup:

Aside from all the whining, bitching and moaning from users I love my job. Plus, no proxy restrictions for the IT dept means more time for sites like this. ;)

elpaletero 07-01-2009 08:24 AM

Age - 24

I'm a financial analyst for a not for profit hospital. I can't say that I love it, but it pays the bills. My fiance is about to start Physical Therapy school. Once she finishes, in 3 years, I'll either be going back for my MBA or going into industrial or civil engineering. I initially went to school for engineering but it got to hard for me to keep a full time job. Because I had to pay my way through school I had to give up engineering for something much easier, finance, so I could continue working full time.

Now, I sort of regret it becuase I stay couped up in the office all day. My job doesn't require much effort or thought or analyzing for that matter.
