I'm a CAD/CAM designer for a manufacturer of automotive a/c systems. I design the parts on the computer, then program the CNC machines that make them. :) 7-5 monday thru friday, for the past 9 years.

Thats a fancy title!

I also turf homes (backyards and frontyards) ive done personal putting greens.

Ive installed the football field for the Toronto Argonauts in Canada, ive worked on the Detroit Lions as well.

I installed football (sports) fields for MANY Colleges and Highschools, i've been to almost every state.

My hours are (seasonal) waking up at 6 in the morning start work at 7 and end at 10 11 and sometimes 12 at night.

7 days a week untill the season is over, which takes months..

I get time and a half and double time after 40 hours a week.

not many regular 9-5 jobs here. Like the one above, strange but cool. :)

I just applied to a pizza restaurant chain, if I get it I'll be making pizzas and sometimes I'll be the pizza delivery boy. :neil:

It's got its ups and downs. Strikes and gutters, as the dude would say. The software is a nightmare, pro/engineer. I call it pro/p-o-s. OEM projects are the best. Logging and verifying hours. The paper work. Oh, and don't get me started on revisions, I love revisions. :P

That's cool. Is that software more like a free form modeling/surfacing. Pro/E is very difficult. Everything has to be dimensioned and constrained. It's difficult to get organic shapes without the surfacing module, which they refuse to buy here. :( Modeling duct work for under the dash is a nightmare. I must have aged like 30 years just working here. What can I say it pays the bills. Any work to show off?

What company? I used to build power generation and distribution units and we used a lot of MCCs from GE, Cutler Hammer, Square D, and ABB.

I work as an Energy Management and Marketing Specialist for the Federal Government. I manage and market the Hydro-Power produced from all the dams along the Missouri River in Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota. Work closely with the Army Corp Of Engineers.

Yes, mostly free form. I never like Pro-E, but then again I did not have all that much time on it. I preferred BRL-CAD. As with all of the other work that I have been doing that requires a clearance, I cannot show anyone what I am working on.

i get high at work, lol.

union journeyman ironworker
