Re: Who's at work then?
My job is such that there are some short brakes when I can only wait, so sometimes I look in here, but it has been quite quiet here recently.

sounds good, changes made!
I'm at work and tomorrow is my last day. I'm the guru at Siemens for system center operations manager which is a funky monitoring piece of software.

Wish i'd gone into computers and programming etc rather than just playing on consoles, always work in that sort of thing.

I'm a PhD student, and am trying to make small things levitate eventually. The devices I'm testing are tethered versions, and the vibrometer is just to check the natural frequencies.

Public transport.
Oh the irony.
Ten hour shifts sceduling demand resposive transport for the disabled and elderly. Sporadicly hilarious.
'where to you normally get on the bus madam?'
'at the front, next to the driver. '
Touché old lady, touché.

ChrisC- That sounds quite epic to me, rather interesting by the sounds of it.
VND- Top draw as always Sir
Speedy- I used to work with my hands, or still should be but there isn't much work about for builders and the like at the moment. I'm 27 and still don't know what i want to do, but a mate of mine is starting a bespoke joinery firm. Problem is, he has no money but all the tools so the plan is i bank role him then start working for/with him once the work pics up.

Re: Who's at work and what do you do?
Being a card carrying old fart I'm far too lazy to work (actually I retired with ill health some years ago). Now I "potter about" in my small workshop "fixing things"
When I did manage to drag myself out of the pit I pretended to be an product investigation engineer for a car manufacturer.

Re: Who's at work and what do you do?
Yeah, I really can't complain... I get to play with big expensive toys all day, run round dressed up like a spaceman in cleanroom gear, and generally get to train to become a mad bloke in a shed.magnumpi wrote:ChrisC- That sounds quite epic to me, rather interesting by the sounds of it.
Talking of mad blokes and sheds, good to see you back Mac
