I'm 28 and the systems administrator (actually the IT manager, but I have no one to manage, lol) for a company in Tempe, AZ. I was in electornics engineering for about 8 years, but switched to IT recently due to the job market. :-?

I mainly code websites, manage the network, keep the servers up, implement new software, and keep the network safe from h4x0r5. :)

Oh crap, who am I fooling?? I browse SyTy.net all day long and day dream about my truck and it's projects. :drinking:

Student at WWU in Bellingham, WA. Majoring in MIS

Currently I work at the ATUS Helpdesk on campus where I help dense and idiotic students and professors.

I had an internship over the summer at The Space Needle that was pretty cool.

I'm a detailer for Subaru, but I'm (hopefully) about to become a technician, since the detailing thing doesn't quite cover my 3 car payments and $900/month insurance. I live with the parents for now. Someday I'll make a lot of money and move out of this state.

Also a former Secret Agent.

I'm 25, and an Electrical Engineer for IBM; small computer company, maybe you're heard of us . I work with companies that want us to build chips for them, and make sure we can test their chips once wafers are made and ready to ship out the door. Current projects include the Apple G6 processor, and processors etc. found in the "Playstation 3" and "X-box 2" (not sure what they'll actually be called, but they're the second generation of each gaming system).

Got a mortgage and a piece of s__t 230k mile Honda Civic, but paid $1,500 for the Ty, so there's extra money to throw at it.

lets see started doing HVAC blueprints when i was 15 at dads AC company.
been doing that for past 6 years, with learning everything there is to know about HVAC in between. the 35 yr old techs with 10 yrs experience still call me for help. mostly doing alot of the mold and air quality stuff. it not bad, pays for the house, sy and wife. im in the process of buying some real estate investment properties, so hopefully when im 40 i can pay someone to deal with renters :evil: and collect my checks, while i sit at home surfing syty.net. i wonder if i will still love these trucks in 20yrs as much as i do now? One can only hope :D
