Networking in NCKA / What do you do for a living? / post here

Welcome Zippy. Love the pink car. You should meet Darius........

Its Mangoooo damn it how many times do I have to describe it to you?!!!

Let the attorney jokes begin, and see you OTW!  

Ok I'll bite, A guy walk in to a bar pass it now he is a Lawyer..

Why won't sharks attack lawyers?
Professional courtesy.

Have you heard about the lawyers word processor?
No matter what font you select, everything come out in fine print.

Sorry you ask and thou shall received...

More of a question........How many lawyers does it take to pry $10 out of a grubby halibut fisherman's cheeto crusted fingers?

I'm only 5'10" and 180 pounds.  The pen may be mighty, but you probably need a sword here- depending on how big the halibut fisherman is...

Art, I got a finger-lickin' good message for you from "Butch" down at the docks:

"F you and your f'ing lawyers, b-tch!"   

too funny, gets me everytime   

I'm what you call unemployed ATM. Other then that I'm an upper management type, last gig at a food distribution warehouse till the economy finally did enough damage. Now for the last year I sit on my A$$ all day looking @ want adds. Trying out of state and country at this point. Hard part is not just going out on the Yak fishing all day LOL.

Western District Service Rep for a forklift manufacture. I just might have a little more time for yaking since I'll be working from home when I'm not traveling.
I hope, I hope, I hope

operator for Cal West Concrete Cutting...cut concrete,core drill ,demo and pour back....been their for 7 years and in the labores union for 16 years...

Just joined the site, but I am a big fan of these threads and networking in general.  I have spent the last 16 or so years in B2B Enterprise Technology Sales and Marketing in EMEA, NAR, CALA.  I now own my own consulting firm and have a few clients that keep me ticking over, my main one in Brazil (Amazon Yak fishing anyone? ).

I specialize in sales, marketing, sales process, process improvement, and strategic development. 

I am also hiring a good telecom field engineer with sales experience or sales support experience and someone with deep telecom/comms connections for bus.dev.

Good thread.   

I just got the inside scoop on a req opening for EE position at a top semiconductor company.   I'd like to help some awesome engineer land the gig of his/her dreams.  Know of anyone?  PM me for info.

They call me a Systems Engineer but Radio Tech is more accurate, I maintain thevarious hardware associated with the 911 System. My job is to make sure the wireless word gets out to all the EMT’s, hospitals, police, firefighters, coroner, probation, public works, park rangers, and even the dog catcher. We also install and fix a lot of misc. electronics like overhead paging systems and audio/video for the courts systems.
 
Studied Fisheries Biology at Oregon State for a few years with an interest in Aquaculture. Decided I didn’t want my parents paying out of state tuition so I stayed in Oregon over the summer to get my residency.  Unfortunately the economy went south and I got laid off. That led to a half dozen years in the military as an electronics technican. I built on that to become a 911 Systems Engineer.

Fish & fishing took a back seat for quite a while. It was all about Skiing and the Martial Arts  . A couple on-mountain run-ins with a suicidal Frenchman and a clueless teen caused some meniscus damage and then when the reality of a forty something trying to keep up with a twenty something Shaolin monk led to a torn ACL, it was time for knee surgeries. What to do when you can’t be active for a while?  You fish.  That led to the NCKA.   

Right now I have a brand new son, William Katsumi, so fishing is in the back seat again.  I am trying to get back out but the trusty Chevy Blazer has seen too many miles and needs coolant system work. I’m eyeing the baby-mobile, AKA, the minivan for conversion to a fishin’ machine. 

Back to work ... Although the economy has slowed things down we do still have occaisional openings for RF types, especially those with backgrounds in two way radio, microwave and digital trunking.

Breaking News!!!!

 Laboratory Rats are going to be replaced by lawyers....

 3 reasons...

1. There are more attorneys than Rats...

2. The Lab Techs don't get so attached to the attorneys...

3. There are some things that even a Rat won't do.....   

Laboratory Rats are going to be replaced by lawyers....

Today, I evaluated a vitae for a recently admitted California attorney who also received her PhD in biochem and molecular bio from Princeton.  You wanna talk attorneys and lab rats!   

I just got the inside scoop on a req opening for EE position at a top semiconductor company.   I'd like to help some awesome engineer land the gig of his/her dreams.  Know of anyone?  PM me for info.

I'm trainable ....

OK, wow, this is not easy.  I could really use some help folks, been out of a job for a year now and had  no results on apps for jobs that, at some level, that will keep food on the table. Now we've lost our house also. I'm not asking for a recommendation, we haven't even met yet for any thing like that, just an idea as to whom you might hear is looking for an upper  managemet type. think operations and warehouse. I'm just needing some places to send some resumes too that are hiring. Thanks and I hope I haven't soured the waters around me with this post.

Im a new member to the site. I am a Firefighter for the City of Yuba City. During duck season I run a duck club, not a paying job but its a job I guess . I just picked up a couple of 06 Hobie Outbacks and am looking forward to diving into the Yak fishing. Duck season is over so I have to find another addiction!
