haha, I thought to go that route duty, but figured all of two people might follow the meaning. Oh, and is an electician someone who "elects" as a profession?dutyje:

Dang...I don't know how it is out in Louisiana, but out here that's a pretty elite union...one of those "you gotta know somebody" type unions if I have my info correct that is.plaidbanana1:Railroad construction and maintenance here. Also a good bit of electrical involved. -
Well, I work kind of in the El paso, New Orleans, Chicago triangle. Not just Louisiana. But,yes, it does help to know someone, although not entirely exclusive.j0z3r:

Sounds like that's gonna be a growth industry, too, nanner.

You poor soul. So you get the people that were to stupid for level one support but not intelligent enough to have a problem worthy of level 3.jihiggs:IT here, 2nd level remote support. yes it sucks as much as it sounds. -
or he is those peoplemadurofan:

well, we arent really a call center so it could be worse. half the cases that come in get closed within 5 days or so cause the |user never calls back, 1/4 of them are cases the front level should have been able to fix if they put forth SOME effort in troubleshooting. the other 1/4 are legit problems, most of which are failing hardware and get fedexed to me. im not sure I want to do level 3 support, I actually started off in an IT group at the state back in cali that was all inclusive, we did all deskside support and server/network support. I think id like somthing like that again. big business these days has a front level helpdesk that is worth ***, a second level that is stretched so thin you cant get anything done, and then level 3 support groups that are so specialised you get people working on servers that couldnt troubleshoot to save their lives. I dont want to be in one of those groups. so here I sit telling people to flick the switch on the side of their laptops to turn the wifi back on. someday I will find a job in a small-midsize office where I can actually do some inovating.

Induced Fear Control Management

No offense to your job higgs someone has to do it and I hope you're compensated well but I swore to myself I'd never do support. I had to do a little in my last job but I was all levels and I was the entire IT department so it was fun.

Joz3r-We do comercial-industrial-but specialize in utility (water-waste water treatment). Been doing this since 1974.
-
Dang, you've got more than a few years on me in the trade. That's a cool niche, specialized/hazardous areas always make for some good code research, though with your years in the trade, I'd bet you've seen just about everything at this point.
I started doing light-commercial myself, restaurants mostly. I've recently changed companies and am focusing more on heavy commercial and, possibly soon, some industrial and hospital work. Never a dull moment. -
Yeah joz- I've been around awhile. Worked on everything from a telephone booth to a nuclear powerhouse. We also do alot of sports lighting. I'm from northwest Arkansas. Yeah I know it's Bill Clinton's state but remember he came up with some cool tricks to do with cigars. Give them a unique flavor.

server/bartender at an applebee's. I'm not a fan of my job, but someone has to get people their waters and boneless wings.
-
And I appreciate the effort. I never had a bad experience at Applebee's. My daughter use to work at a Jimmy Buffets " Cheeseburger in Paradise" from her related experiences, food service is a rather un-gratifying profession.These Filthy Hands:server/bartender at an applebee's.

yes very ungratifying. Now would you get us all a beer?
-
I dunno. I've got three close friends who used to be waiters and now have more lucrative careers. All of them loved waitering.

I don't think they ever served at an Applebee's on the outskirts of the ghettourbino:I dunno. I've got three close friends who used to be waiters and now have more lucrative careers. All of them loved waitering. -
Probably not.

i like the food service industry. I get to make hundreds of people happy every day via food.
i like food so much that my second job is a gourmet chocolate company. If you are in ohio you too can taste our products.
