25 years working with stuff you can't see, taste, or feel until its too late. I spend many days at altitude and others buried in mud. Doing my type of job means that all of you get to spend time posting on this message  board. There are times where I am equally loved and despised by the general public. At this point in time, my job is a direct influence on many facets of life for us all.

I'm not a hero by any means, but I am lucky enough to be called such now and then.

What am I?

Branch of the Military?

Jack of all trades, master of none  :noid

Are you missing an "f"? Kidding, Mr. R...

Me? The most hated man in the Ford Motor Company... The Global Target Setting Subject Matter Expert. You could call me a weasel, but it's more specific: ferret. As Ink noted, there is a chance that I'll play along, just to get you to spill.

I'm from corporate. I'm here to, uh, help.
Some say revenge is a dish best served cold. I say it's usually best served hot, chunky, and foaming. Eventually, you will all die in my vengeance vomit firestorm.

I herd cats by heading up a builders hardware department in a store very similar to what you guys call Home Depot except where HD budgets for killing five people a year we budget for zero deaths.

Graduated College/Tech School in January of this year for HVACR. My father owns a business he created a few years ago. We fix anything and everything you see inside of any restaurant. Electric work as well. I'm only 19 handling a lot of our business paperwork. (Invoices, Inventory, Payoll soon.) I'd say I'm doing well so far being as young as I am. The only thing I wish I had was my fathers will to work. I'm not one to skip work or anything but you can tell work is all he has ever known.

After 15 years in the RAF I then went into civilian air cargo operations. When I moved to the USA I was in data input for 14 years but decided I need to spend more time with my wife so did a complete change, I went into retail. I'm now the (old) blue shirted guy at our local Best Buy.
