Hurrah, my first post after getting drawn in by the yummy in my tummy (or perhaps just yummy and not in my tummy) snus.

I only know the Norwegian word for what I do, and it's "Tavlemontør". I have no idea what it is in English, so here, have a couple of pics:



I basicly build these. If anyone know the English word for my job, please do tell. I've been wondering about it for years.

You are an IT systems engineer. An extremely geeky but lucrative position here in America. Nice rack!

I can't remember if I posted here or not, but I am a student and a caregiver for adults with disabilities here in rainy Oregon, USA.

This has nothing to do with IT. It's more normal analogue electric equipment. I would translate it with switch board or switch cabinet builder or simply electrician...

Telecommunications Engineer of some sort?

[Zero]

No, it looks like control systems stuff, either for building or industrial infrastructure systems - programmable logic control, etc. I'd say the English name of the position would be something like Control Systems Engineer.

I am an environmental engineer now doing construction safety. I am learning mandolin. Have a 10 year old boy who takes piano and guitar.

[Wingon]

I think Zero is more right (I forgot completely about my plan on beeing active here. Damn you, politics!).

I now build systems for controling enviroment in mostly stores, so they get the right temperature and stuff like that. So I think Control System is closer than IT system.

And speaking of politics. That's my second "job" on which I use my leftover time after work and weekends. Right now I'm having a nice portion of Nick and Johnny watching live web-feeds from the Norwegian Conservative Party's National Convention. Springtime is politics time, with conventions all over the place. Huzzah!

[Scott64a]

I'm a ditch doctor.

Well, paramedic.

Fun stuff, really, and an intimate place to share other's misery and pain.

[Colby296]

Senior in high school, attending California State University, Chico next year.

After, I plan on studying law at [Insert prestigious east coast law school]

[Starcadia]

I'm a document specialist at a corporate law firm to pay the bills. Currently looking for new work, aiming at technical drawings for patents and other intellectual property.

In my spare time I write electronic music. Planning to finish and hopefully release my first album - an EP - later this year. My site with MP3 downloads for the curious.

I'm also a painter, although music has been consuming my creative efforts for a while.

Thats my greatgrandfather from sweden.

[RealmofOpeth]

well now i'm an 'engineering coordinator' at a flight-simulator manufacturer. finally using some of what i learned in the military in a field i'm interested in and a decent wage...and not hurting my back or having to wear crappy/dirty clothes...unlike at the fedex shithole which i quit 2 months ago. however i am gaining weight, that's a drawback i can handle though.

[Knoxboxen]

I'm an IT consultant at a high school.
