    No stalking, you gave it away with your reference to downspout connection incentives and your location in Ohio. I am familiar with NEORSD and many of their consent decree projects, including Euclid. It is part of my job to be familiar with the various combined sewer district programs in the U.S.

    I hope you know I'm just joking about the stalking reference. I think the civil engineering decisions are fascinating, and am curious about how these decisions impact their population. The Euclid Creek Tunnel is incredible to me - all that to deal with our sewage.

    I'm an aspiring mechanical engineer and I work in the parts department at a body shop. I was here long before we got bought out by a huge corporation called Service King. I've worked in the Collision Repair and Automotive Detail departments before my current position.

    My last day for Sears Auto Center is tomorrow, and I'll be taking up a front desk position at a local family-owned tire and auto chain. Gonna miss the access to the alignment rack and such in the backshop, but constant exposure to grease/oil for 10 hours a day is giving me pretty bad skin problems on my forearms.

    At least I took advantage of my last couple days and gave my alignment a quick check/tweak!

    I worked for the Federal government like everyone here in the DC area.

    My official title is Personnel Security specialist, but I've done adjudications for federal employees

    Currently leading a program that deals with immigrant children that have been apprehended by CBP. The program processes the background check on a sponsor the minor will be released to until they are able to a judge.

    So in a nutshell, I sit behind a desk.

    Resurrect this old post!

    I am a Broadband Support Technician for a telecom/internet service provider, if you couldn't guess from the username

    If your internet is broken you call tech support. If tech support can't figure out what's wrong, they send it to me and I git r done.

    I live in a rural town with more Amish and cows than anything else. It's nice and quiet this time of year because all our rich retired snow birds are down in Florida. But those folks will be coming back up this way within the next couple months and chaos will resume once again. Yeehaw!

    Hobbies include PC's, gaming, attempting to fix the old house and cars. General dad stuff. Wifers drives an old Tucson and I putz around in my Mirage for the daily work car. During the warm months I'll hop on my 99 Honda Shadow and cruise when I can.
