Assistant door gunner, Space Shuttle

I just i load them I get nasty cramps

I fly these jokers around.

Sometimes I get to fly Space Rangers. But the Rangers aren't very smart, they like to fart in their space suites and smell the fumes.

Engineering/Electronics Technician for a National Laboratory.

I get to help design/test/troubleshoot all sorts of strange electronics. Some stuff that gets ran in high vacuum, some stuff gets ran in atmospheres of Helium and other gases, some ultra high voltage circuits (1kV to 10kV), some ultra low current stuff pico to femto amp. It's rather cool. A lot of what we develope for the experiments and instrumentatin would not be used much of anywhere else.

I get to write embedded code and code for PC data accquisition systesm. The PC based stuff is mostly VB and LabView, the embedded has been mostly Microchip ASM. I also lay out printed circuit boards. I have just done my first Ball Grid Array board, the BGA footprint/decal was fine but a small scale SOIC footprint was hosed. I have also done high speed digital and mixed signal boards with controlled impedance.

I wire and layout industrial motor control boxes, I have done some design work on them too. I have done a lot of work with the ICPDAS RS485 modules. I also manage the larger assembly and fab runs of our electronics (150 to 1K boards), I arrange the vendors and parts, make sure all the bugs are worked out in the manufacturing process.

And I do the purchase orders for my group and keep the shipping and receiving folks from shitting on our schedual (This is what I fucking hate to do).

So as a lowly tech I wear many many hats.

Been there and done that. Good luck on making EMT-P. Make sure that you take the NREMT-P as soon as you finish your state test.

TX no longer has a state test, initial certification is through NR, then you have to apply for state cert. You do not have to keep up your NR cert once you have the state patch, but I plan to definitely.

Catch fish, lobster and Crab on a multi-purpose off-shore commercial fishing vessell. I also fish a five week fishing season for salmon in AK...kind of a fishing vacation for me as it is pretty tame compared to the usual fishing. I also do electrical transmission work when the fishing is slow or the price(of fish) is down. I would rather be fishing than climbing 90' wood poles and 1,2,300+ steel structures all day.

so i guess to answer your question

...........i fish

I kill people who ask dumb questions and put up polls.

I invented the inflatable chicken.

Nobody wants to put his lips on a chicken's ass and blow no matter how funny an inflated chicken is, apparently.

I have a fragment of JFK's skull. I named it George. It sits on my dresser between a .458 Lott cartridge and a used band-aid I once pulled off of Ernest Borgnine at a cocktail party we were
both at in Las Vegas.

To keep with the SSGD analogy:

When a Space Shuttle Door Gunner calls for parts he hears this:

"Thank you for calling SSDG Enterprises, you full service gunner warehouse. For Sales, press 1. For Technical Support, press 2..." "Thank you for holding. A Door Gunner representative will be with you shortly..."

I'm the jackass that designs that.

not exactly sure, I got a title where I work, but normaly I show up, drink free cokes all night, shoot the shit with the working employees, make a little time with the female customers, occasionally get a date out of it, set in my office smoking a bunch of cigerrettes and surf jobrelatedstuff.com and get paid pretty decent for no more than what I do,

job does get pretty boring sometimes when theres no customers, or mostly older chicks, but what I do is, I walk around drinking a free coke and look at the older chicks and say, damn, she looks pretty good for a 57 year old and she's not bad for 60 ect.ect.
