I'll plead the fifth <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> ....I used to work for a company that was a contractor for the NPS/DOI. I traveled around to national parks hooking up their computer systems and training their personnel on our software, and did app testing when I was stuck in my cubi <img border="0" alt="[Barf]" title="" src="graemlins/barf.gif" /> . I ended up leaving my position to be able to spend more time with my daughter while my girlfriend finishes college (only 2 more semesters <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> ) So now I'm almost 23, and working night audit/payroll at a (very decent) hotel in the area (anyone going I-68 through Cumberland - PM me and I'll hook you up <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> I write a little for our local free press, and help out with irisstudios.com -though we're currently in the process of redoing the site.

In the interest of all the high tech sounding positions....
I am, and have been, the chief domestic engineer and lead in adolescent development with a very small firm here in Kirkland, WA.(a stay at home dad of two).
Soon I will be leaving the daily development decisions and executions of strategy to a professional firm and returning to the workforce as an electrician(the kids head for daycare and I get to go earn some play money!).

This has been a great topic to read through and get to know everyone a little more. I guess I'll throw my .02 into the pot...
I fix commercial kitchen equipment, or what I prefer to be called: Certified Restaurant Equipment Repair Technician. I've been doing this for about 6 years now, and most of the time I really enjoy my job. Weekends off and the pay is decent, but the hours can be insane during the summer. 8 or 9 am till 10 or 11 at night... but you have to work while the money is rollin' in!
Take care guys, and keep up the postings!

Ok my turn, I am a tech support shift lead (though I do the work of a manager) for a hotel corp. I've been here for almost three years. I'm also a full time student starting on my bachelors for business admin (maybe this time I'll finish <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> ). I'm a new dad too and staying very busy being one.
P.S. Just my luck my company has no hotels near Moab, Tellico, Buena Vista, CO so no free night stays. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" /> <small>[ June 19, 2003, 01:54 AM: Message edited by: txsoulfly ]</small>

For a little while longer, I work on the litigation that came out of the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill (I work for the good guys, though when I talk to them I'm a little confused as to why we consider salty old fishermen good).
Soon I'll be moving to the other Washington to start my career in International Security/Intelligence Analysis, which is what I learned in school.
By the way, anyone here in the Naval Reserve? If you are, email me, I wanna pick your brain.
