How I wish!!!!

Gary — 12/21/2004 5:05:40 PM (archived)

They won't let me touch anything :-( . I try to but the bosses slap my hands and tell me there are "worker's comp" issues :-( :-( . All I do all day is make electrons whirr around inside computers.

My business card says I'm a "scientist" and my diploma says I'm an "engineer" but all I really am is a computer programmer.

I have training as a tool-and-die maker. I'd love to spend some time in a machine shop and actually do something real. I maintain what skills I have doing automobile repair work (my daily driver is 40 years old).
