Re: What do you do for a living?? (phoenix)
Civil/Environmental Engineer - Yes, I do have a B.S. in Engineering. I am also a student at William & Mary working towards my MBA.
TheJaf, I graduated from VA Tech in May 2001 in Environmental Engineering. Periodically, my professors would bring us over to where you work for hydrology reports, etc. It's too bad I never met up with you.
Cheers,
Stephen

Re: What do you do for a living?? (76 Red)
I am a Manufacturing/ Project Engineer for Branson Ultrasonics. We design and build plastic joining equipment. Some of our machines have welded the water resistant Kodak cameras, the full size Dodge Ram tail lights, toner cartridges for HP and Lexmark, charcoal canisters, windshield washer bottles, radiator overflow tanks, shower heads, plastic coffee cups, and intake manifolds! (Too bad none are for the Small Block Chevy!)
I get assigned a project and cover/watch over it "from cradle to grave." I interact with the salesmen, Mechanical and Electrical Engineers, and the guys in the shop, trying to meet the delivery date. I also inspect the machines before they leave. It is fun most of the time. Some times it can be a little stress full.

I just purchased one of those cameras. The Kodak DC5000. The water resistant feature was one of the main selling points to me. Hope you guys did a good job!!! :D

Re: What do you do for a living?? (76 Red)
My favorite former job title was when I was growing up on our ranch in Colorado. We raised registered Polled Hereford bulls for breading stock and shipped them to a 5 state area.
That made me a "BULL SHIPPER!"
