From your profile photograph, I assumed you worked in some sort of factory.

I am currently UNEMPLOYED.... anyone have a job for me???

Retired
When I was working, I was a Facilities Maintenence Tech. in a Qualtity Control, Enviromental Testing Lab. They tested aircraft engine control computers under Enviromental conditions such as Hot, Cold, Humidity, Altitude, and you name it if the, weather could do it, we had to simulate it. I had to keep all the equipment working that did the testing, nothing to do with what was being tested.
I have been retired since Feb. 93.
