I work at a grocery store in the summer and on weekends from September-November and April-June (got to save ski/hockey season.) Oh, I'm also a high school student during the year. Almost forgot about that one.

For the lazy ones: I am a research engineer and work managing projects for a division of a commercial and industrial property insurance company that functions as a third party testing and certification service for fire protection systems and components.

What do you think of that part of California? I've never lived there, but the few times I visited I thought that the coastal area north of San Diego was pretty nice...

Wow .. your just a fountain of wisdom here. Does that come from all the years of life experience you have on the plant or did you get that knowledge from a course in college? Now if your a vet I will have a tad more respect for you but otherwise ... lets have a little more respect cheesehead or have you been grilled to much already in your young life?



I was just stating my my opinion...:uzi:

The climate is awesome, almost always between 60-80 degrees any given time of the year. Never humid. Although I'm in the desert right now for training, where its 110+ everyday.

The people are really fake though. If your from socal, sorry to offend you but just stating an observation that alot of my friends would agree to as well

Jerry's protective of his fellow Mainers. Jerry and Terry are both good people.

Jerry looks after me like the son he never had.



And by "son" I really mean "retarded pet monkey."

My company helps companies clean/enhance their master customer lists by running it through our immense knowledgebase (with personal info on YOU) so they can better reach you during dinner time or by junk mail.
I work around 30-40hrs/week and sometimes it's really slow, others mad busy.
In a week I'll be going homebased for good (as is most of the building). When that happens... we'll see how it goes. Been here 6 years.

Not sure if that's really wise or mature....

Just saying....

Not necessarily relative to this thread, but there are definitely some opinions that are better left unspoken.

Just because you have a right to make an ass of yourself here in America doesn't mean you should.

OK, this I understand and agree with. I just took issue with telling Cheesy people didn't care about his opinions. I mean, we're all posting here presumably because we have a level of interest in what others have to say.
