Quoted from Azmodeus:Also fun to see the inside of working places of places like San onofre power plant and the Santa Ana women's jail.

Quoted from irobot:Civil engineer.
People who respond to these types of threads on the internet are usually the people with pretty good jobs.
Or if they have a lame job, they don't realize it and think it's swell.
Rarely do you see a guy say that he sorts trash at a recycling center or something like that.
Or mops the floors at a peep show.

To make sure to include myself on here, I am an electronic tech and have worked for a couple different larger and smaller companies as a number of titles...some with people under me, some not...
Have had a decent range of electromechanical and electronic experience, and have spent a few years working at a board house as a test/troubleshoot/repair board tech.
Too many variety of electronics to bother mentioning....from coin op, to high power RF/microwave, to radio transmission/broadcast, etc...
Quoted from Manimal:Not sure if this already exists here, but it would be nice to have a directory of Pinside businesses/services that would be searchable by city/state. I realize it would be a very small subset of what is out there, but it is always good to meet fellow pinballers and maybe throw some business their way in the process.
