I realize this is "slightly" off topic, but I thought since this IS the internet and a tight bunch of L-enthusiasts, I'd pose the question.

How many do we have out there?

I'll go first, I'm an Informatica Consultant / "Road-Warrior"...

To get back on topic, I'm looking to score some "bright-white/blue" driving lamps and a Bed-Rug ASAP for my x-country sojourn.

I understand that if I don't match the watts/voltage, etc exactly, I can burn my wiring harnesses. Does anyone have any input here?

Also, I understand that Chickenears is the hookup here. Chicken, what can we do to conduct business?

Also, another point, I see that alot of you are based in the Northern part of the country. I know that salt is everywhere during the winter and am wondering what everyone is doing to keep the L "salt-free". (Short of garaging - which should be an option soon).

Thanks!

Ronald.

 

I'm a ERP Support Specialist ... does that count? And a
former (last week) Road Warrior ... I just transfer to an
at home position and I am happier than a three peckered
billy goat ... I GET TO DRIVE MY TRUCK more than just on SUNDAY

 

SVT_KY,

What ERP app. you support ? (SAP, PeopleSoft, Banner). I assume you've heard of Informatica. We "feed" you girls the "0s and 1s"! haha...

If I could get back "in-country" to the Texas/Oklahoma area, I'd be happier than a pup w/2 p#ckers !

JDE and Manugistics ... Plus various and sundry
output management packages like Optio and
Formscape and Planet Press and and and ...

 

I'm an MIS minor (maybe) ...does that count?

 

SVT,

I'll have to admit that I haven't heard of those apps., although I have heard of JDE. I've been the 24x7x365 Informatica Admin. support "monkey" before and have vowed "NEVER AGAIN" ! 3am "wake-up" Prod. Support brush-fire calls (salary at the time) s#ck the root!

Cyntaxx,

If your serious about IT, etc. hang in there! Mid-6-figures is VERY attainable despite the hype.

Ronald...

 

I get to take a few MIS classes, but so far I think a double major in Acct. and Finance is for me.

 

Novell\Microsoft certified network engineer. Currently consulting at a international food company. Nice and small environment. Trying to get my own biz off the ground. Job market is completley saturated though.


SVT-KY- We use Manugistics at my company through Citrix.

Rqbrown- We are currently implementating SAP and the HR dept just finished a Peoplesoft project.

 

I have unused bulbs in my possesion,,, get my brother who is graduating in april a job (he has a computer engineering/IT degree) a job based out in any area, and I'll give you the bulbs for free. Shoot me an email to whitetoast11@comcast.net and I'll shoot you his resume.

I'm a software engineer, someday i'll get around to finishing college. If someone knows of a mid six figure job out there for me ... i'd greatly appreciate it ... i'll even hook you up with some parts for your L

 

well i'm a management major but i figure it is wise to pick up a tech minor...i had enough background in computers to make it pretty easy to pick up a minor in MIS..

 

WT,

You have mail and hope to get your brother the IT hook-up.

All,

I don't have all the career answers, but having an in-demand specialty, willingness to travel and a tough-skin is the key! To put it all into perspective, I actually have 3 COMPLETE undergrad. degrees (Pol. Sci./Economics minor in Russian and an MIS deg. from Univ. of OK.) Da, moy "L" tovorischtiy !

So hang in there with the "changing majors" thing and it'll all work it's way out...

Ronald.
