Ahh but Keith look at what's brewing up here... We have someone who has connections to the Orient, a few high tech micro chip engineers, mechanical genius, financial savvy people (great at stocks), military connections (including Brian who probably is a custodian.. but can't tell or he will kill us ) , security and tactic specialist, psychologist.. and what we have a makings of a bigger picture. A ultimate high tech company in the makings that will enter the world ...... with blue chip stocks on all major markets, understanding of how human may think to make products that will be functional, a leader in protecting it's valuable employees with tight security.... and Brian the custodian. Ok I hope no one is taking me serious here I just had to laugh when I read your comment

BTW Keith you forgot to mention you are a cultivate engineer

Nah, I've done various little dead-end jobs, between trying to find work locally in the IT field. I've completed school for Industrial Electronics, though I never worked in the field directly. I like working on computers, and wish there was more business to go around down here. At the moment, I've been "freelancing" taking on small jobs for individuals and small businesses. It's enough to keep a little money in my pocket at most times, but I won't get rich any time soon!

I teach flight instructors how to use our flight system database, I also manage a worldwide database and am responsible for reporting out the right information at the right time to the FAA and other NAA's of the world. I travel internationally to train in Australia, Singapore, and the UK (next Hong Kong). I fly the simulators when we have down-time and can take off and land just about any Boeing plane from the B717 onward. How many people you know have barrel rolled a 717 and 747?

Before that, menial jobs, building computers and software support, and college. R/C has helped me develop an understanding of how to bring mechanical electronics and wireless technology together.

Aviation is my life's passion, FPV and R/C flight is my sanity, and my lady and family is my sanctuary. I'm 25 years old.

How did you get into that field of work, it sounds amazing?

Custodian?!?! Haha

Oh ok fine. I'll spare your life... just this once.

What do I do? All kinds of things... Computer programming, system administration. Design engineering. Scientific research and measurement standards in the realm of surface metrology. I also participate in ASME standards and am chair of an editorial review group. etc. etc.

Mr.Pibb: I've wondered if that was you in your avatar. I was just recently trained in cleanroom operations. Donned my first "bunny suit" last week. Should be interesting.

Brian

P.S. John, if you need your trash taken out, just let me know.

Thank you Nick,

All I can say is... have faith in the more quality temp agencies, it's one of the preferred ways of hiring with big employers (for many reasons). Once you have your foot in as one of the temps, hard work and great communication/interaction with everyone will hopefully get you a more permanent position.

College degrees and past experience get you to the interview.
Once you are in that interview, its your personality and communication that determines whether or not you get the job.

I see this now more than ever, especially now that I am the one on the other side of the table in the interviews.

LMAO Brian!!! and thank you for sparing my life this time! BTW is that what you guys call those suits? Bunny Suits? Why do I picture you guys prancing around with white floppy ears and a bushy white tail behind glass rooms? Sound like Hugh Hefner is working with the feds too OK.. I think you will shoot me for that last shot

[Mr.Pibb]

Yea, it sort of kills the whole idea of "playboy bunnie", though, when you can't tell if someone is a guy or a girl when you see them from a distance.

It is funny, though, that the Wikipedia entry for Bunny Suit includes both "types".

Hmm. Would liven things up a bit in the clean room I would say. Probably harder to get work done though.

I am a college student majoring in Electrical Engineering. This summer I am working for a company operating and maintaining UAV's. I didn't even know about FPV until this summer, but now as soon as the next paycheck comes in I am getting a plane and camera.
