So... ... how come we didn't get more QA 'samples' for the meet???


All the alcohol at the meet was "Diageo" products (cause I get them for free). The park, however, does not allow hard alcohol in the pavilions. We'll have to plan accordingly for next year. wink.gif

Nah, but last month we had sensory training where we had to tell the difference between different gins, vodkas and FMBs. And yeah, I got paid to drink ph34r.gif

I'm just a computer programmer mostly revolves around database management but not all of it does. I've made stand alone apps and web based apps. Can/have used Basic, V-basic, C++, VBA, .NET VB, VFP(6, 7, 8, & 9). Also when needed I do networking/hardware work. I've built the last three computers in the office. The travel is fun, seen Yuma, Las Vegas and Norway for work. I've been doing this for 5 years. Prior to that I worked in a garage doing tires, batteries, shocks/struts, etc....

I work in the parts department for saturn of pleasant hills, mostly as a driver, but I do spend a bit of time at the counter

I also am the primary remote start/alarm tech at a small car audio shop in elizabeth, pa-mts car stereo
I've been working there for about 8 years now, it's flat-rate, and buisness is too up and down to rely on, so I went part time and that pays for my toys
play me loud, just don't blow me

I'm currently a college student, 6 more months left til I graduate with a BS in Criminal Justice and a minor in law and society. Basically I wanna be a cop for now to get my foot in the door with law enforcement.

Right now I work for Omaha Steaks, part time to pay for school and this CRX of mine. I also work with my dad when I get time, and we supply towels & linens to Car washes, hotels and such.
