So, what's your latest job? Working the graveyard shift is the best for me. I've been a night owl since I was about 9 or 10 years old. This latest stretch of graveyard shift started some time in 1997...

I'm working in a cleanroom making the sensors for the new electronic xrays. But this time it's not a temp job, so hopefully I'll be able to stay here for quite a while!

I may be getting a new job within my company as a Visions System Technician. Basically its a computer with Cameras that take pictures of components to make sure they are what they are supposed to be (right carton for the bottle being run/customer being run).

The therapy worked, I got a GS now

We got a bit of an icy snowstorm last night/this morning. Fun to slide around in... Definitely happy with my new tires!
