I'm a software engineer for a company that makes ATE for semiconductors

[Franglais]

My usual job is Project Manager running IT projetcts, especially ones concerning the Microsoft Exchange corporate messaging system.

Right now I've had to lower myself and and actually do the messaging system part (systems engineer) rather than get other people to do it. Because my Project Managers aren't very experienced and don't know how to organise things today will be 7.30 am till 11m ..

Give me a month or so and I hope I should have them in line.

Afterthought: That last sentence gives the wrong impression. The way to do it is to be very patient with the people running the project and explain why some things won't work the way they want and suggest ways that will work, in little doses when they are ready to listen. Some of my ideas they accept and many of their ideas I have to accept but after a while we get to something that works.

I teach physics at a small college in semi-rural Maryland. I used to earn 6 figures in computing but just got totally sick of doing it. I work for a few peanuts these days but it's actually fun to get up and go to work now!

[mjs1973]

Here is a thread from a couple years ago that covers the same topic. I'm pretty much in the same spot as I was when I posted in that thread. We just had some major chances take place last week, and I will be moving to a new building next week. As of right now, my roll is pretty much the same, but I see that changing in the near future.

What's your day job?

[Flybye]

I teach physics....

Very nice. What physics do you teach? I'm a Mechanics Engineering major and just finished Physics II. Magnetism is fun

[mwfanelli2]

I work at a two year college so it's the first two years: conceptual, algebra-based, and calculus-based Physics (not all at the same time!). The last two cover Physics I, II, and III and soon to be IV. These classes are activity-oriented: no lectures, students learn physics by doing physics. Calculus uses the Workshop Physics approach, algebra physics uses ICP/21.

Others teach engineering courses, again the first two years: statics, some sort of computer modeling class, digital electronics lab, robotics and automation, Matlab, etc.

We have such a good program that our summer physics courses are loaded with students from 4-year universities looking to take physics. The head of our department did a lot of work to get us that reputation.

I also teach other conceptual courses: Physical Science (for education majors) and occasionally Light Science and Essentials of Weather.

You're looking at it. I get paid to hang out here, on Facebook and Twitter, take pictures and play with cameras. Captain of the ship, at your service!

I work in software development, although it has been a while since I changed any real code.

[Canuck935]

I test software, break things, and complain constantly about how sucky Windows XP and Vista are.

Huh... if your location was different, I'd think you were the guy who sits in the cubicle in front of me :P

RETIRED chemical engineer. How did I possibly have time for work. - TF

[Grandpaw]

I am a "PRP" and I must humbly say that I am extremely good at it. For those of you that don't know what acronym stands for, I am a "Professional Retired Person". from Bellsouth Telephone Company with 32 years service. I have found that I am well suited and qualified for retirement the last six years. In the last year and a half I have been picking up extra money from my photography and hope to build it up as time goes on, Jeff

[Anbesol]

Portrait photographer - I do the church directories, many of you are probably familiar with.

A lot of software people here!

Manager at Intel.

[GB1]

Software engineer for a consulting company in San Diego, California (USA). I am lucky enough to work with graphical user interfaces at the moment, which is more fun and artistic than data work which I've done a ton of.
