One of those "what do you do" threads...

[tgrace98]

I will go ahead and share what I do as well. I am a Consulting Systems Engineer for an IT consulting firm. What I mainly do is Design, implement, and support enterprise sized voip phone systems and video conferencing. I do a little sales to but that is mainly just the technical expert along with a sales person. Been in the industry now for about 15ish years.

Mind if I ask what company? are you based in STL? If your comfortable with that I understand. No worries.

[tgrace98]

Sure. I work for a smaller shop right now called ISG technology. We are based in KC but have a satellite office here in STL in the Westport area. But we just have Sales and Engineers here so its a rather small office.

[Table Rockin]

I ask because I'm a partner in a CPA firm downtown called Anders and we have a technology arm called....wait for it...Anders Technology. Was curious if you guys were competitors of ours. I still dont know that IT isn't my area of expertise, but I've heard a few IT firms name dropped on occasion. Anyway, dont hold it against me if we are! Sounds like you are part of the growing future there so congrats to you!

[tgrace98]

oh can't say I have heard of Anders before. There are a ton of small technology firms out there so it is not a surprise I haven't.

I'm not new, but I never dropped in on this thread. I am a Millwright with Ford Motor in Louisville. Basically I maintain the conveyors and equipment around the plant, do some fabrication, a little construction, and general industrial mechanic type work. I get dirty for a living. In an auto plant with downtime costing around $250/sec, things can get hairy in a hurry. I served my apprenticeship with Ford starting at 24 and I don't know that I could have created a job for myself I would rather have. My schedule requires my attendance on the job 7 of 14 days, so with a schoolteacher wife, we get lots of lake time.
It's great to see the occupational cross section of members here. Lots of variety and experiences.

[Cycleman6]

I'll share here. I'm the general sales manager at a Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram dealership in Louisville Ky. I am a professional full time negitatior. All day long I structure car deals, get deals financed, and work with customers doing what most people hate: buying cars. Been in the car business about 10 years. Before that was in corporate accounting and finance.
