I design Avionics, primarily communication systems these days.   Boxes I've designed fly in the V22, C130J, C27J, F-15 and the Apache Helicopter and currently one of my earliest systems can be seen whirling around the planet at night as its docked at the International Space Station :-)

I'm an estimator at a road construction company. Not the most exciting of jobs but it pays not bad at all and I absolutely don't suffer from any stress at all :-) .

I can relate spihunter. I was a desktop support engineer for a company in the automotive industry. Thank God I got out alive. I'm not doing anything at the moment. Hopefully in 3 years time I will be a Speech and Language Therapist.
