That's funny, I also have a job at a large logistics/transportation company as a systems engineer. I think maybe I've seen your van out in the lot if it is gold...


Yep, I take Goldie to work occasionally. That must be your Syncro that's usually in the lot.

I'm an engineer at the last American memory company. I hope my stuff is in your ipad. Unless it breaks, then I'm sure it was supplied by the south Koreans. Confused

I'm a freelance carpenter fresh out of school. I specialize in Historic Preservation, so most of my work is on 100+ year old houses. Everything from framing to trim to paint.

If I'm not working on a house, I'm working on the bus Smile . She's my daily pack mule, and I'd be dead in the water without her.

Geologist and civil engineer working mostly on bridge foundation design, landslide repairs, road design, and other random stuff. My preoccupation is working on my vehicles, surfing, hiking, and various geeky endeavors. And if the great god of fortune would bestow a bit more onto me I would start flying again.
