Hmmmm.... Air Force, IT engineers.... makes my job as a store manager at GameStop seem kind of tame. Then again, who actually enjoys their job and can afford to buy a new Lariat? And the guys at my store wonder why all the video game posters in our back room dissappeared and were replaced with '04 F-150 pictures!
Although flying around in planes for the best military in the world sounds kinda fun too!

Telecommunications Analyst. Basically, I install, program and maintain various telephone, voice mail and video conference systems for my company. We have offices all over the world, but I only maintain the systems in the eastern half of the US.
I was in the Army (1987-1988 reserves, 1989-1993 active duty Germany and Ft Polk, LA and then reserves from 2000-2003) Been in the civilian world since 1993 in the telecom industry.
Interesting to see all the different jobs held by everyone on here.

Formerly a computer/technology/mathematics instructor.
For the last 4 years I have worked at a CNC machining/metal fabricating facility as network administrator, senior programmer/analyist, Oracle database adminstrator, Windows/Linux administrator, web developer, in-house trainer, computer repair man, occasional phone repair man, the guy who explains to others in the company why a program that I did not write (and have only used once or twice) is malfunctioning, and the guy who gets called when other people have an ut-oh.
One of the advantages of working in this 2 person IT department is that no two hours are ever the same, regardless if it is 3:30 AM or 11:00 PM.

ComputerGuy - It's great working for a smaller company (at least in the beginning)...because you get thrown into everything, so you have to learn EVERYTHING. You end up light years ahead of people in large companies that are stuck on one project or task all day long. For example, a splicer at the phone company. They have one task and they don't know much about corporate PBX's and voice mail systems, etc. But, you take a guy like myself that worked for a small company for 7 years and you get 10 times more experience because you just have to learn everything involved with telecom...there's just nobody else to rely on. Works out well I think. It's helped me earn $40,000 more per year now than what I made in 1993. It was well worth the initial headaches of being the jack-of-all-trades phone dude.

Reinforcing steel (rebar) estimator for a company in Phoenix and Tucson, AZ. I work from home in WA since my wife couldn't take the heat in Arizona any more (long story).
I've been up here for three years now and I still talk to customers who think I'm in Tucson or Phoenix. Phone calls into either office are transferred to my house, so it does seem like I'm there. Isn't technology wonderful?
