And you have time for TFP???? Good for you!!! Really!!!

I am a Senior Account Executive for a Technical Staff Augmentation and Project Consulting firm.

ARTelevision · 08-28-2003, 04:40 PM

Sure thing, TFP is one of the two sites I'm referring to.

5 endeavors works, since they can all be multitasked simultaneously from 24/7 Net connections. Man, I'm so happy I'm living in this rockin' century!

Good to meet all you folks' in your professional roles too...

IC3 · 08-28-2003, 04:57 PM

I am 25 years old.

I work on an 8 Colour Flexographic Printing Press, We use to have a contract with Humpty Dumpty Chips. We printed the bags, Lamintaed the foil that you see inside the chip bag and then slit the rolls and then ship them out to be made into actual chip bags.

We do all kinds of other food bags, Coffee bean bags etc etc.

It can be an ok job at times, But in the summer time it's brutal working on those Machines in the Humidity.

20 year old college student, entering my 3rd year.

ananayal · 09-02-2003, 12:31 AM

I work for a great company. I did three years of college majoring in Rubber Engineering Technology, Polymers, and Mechanical Engineering. A year short of finishing, I just decided I didn't want to go into that field. Four months ago, I got hired into Yoplait/Columbo and I do various jobs there. Basically I'm a factory slut. I make the cups the yogurt goes into, I work on the machine that boxes the yogurt... and so on. Great job, and better pay then I could have gotten with my degrees.

Yoplait product listing

bundy · 09-02-2003, 05:31 AM

I work for a company that provides High Speed internet in hotels all over North America, and we're slowly spreading across Europe... We're the preferred vendor for VBN solutions by Hyatt and Carlton hotel chains, and have recently reached our 300th installation with more on the way...
I'm a Junior Support Agent (although many of my fellow Support Agents come to me with problems as though I were a Senior, it's all relative really...) and I provide Tech Support when people have problems using the system.
If you are travelling and want to know where to stay and get High Speed internet while on the road, just visit www.guest-tek.com/hotels.html, if you get ahold of me on here or IRC before you go, I may give you details on how to get free access...
