D2A, why did you get out of that? I've always thought that would be a fucking killer job.

P.S. Ixnay on the Insurance Company pricks. I just got a check for $1700 for a broken headlight, dented bumper, and a broken turn-signal. Some shithead made a left turn from the right lane, right in front of me. And when the dust settled and the smoke cleared, she said, and I quote:

::Begin Parakeet with Tourette's voice::

"Mufuka, you didn't see muh blinkah"

To which I respond

"Blinker or not, ma'am, you don't make left turns from the right lane, and I haven't fucked my mother lately..."

It's not too bad when management lets people actually do the job at hand

Unfortunately, probably not. Unless you want to join me in the woods doing topographic Surveys. I just checked our website, and they're only hiring Structural Engineers and CAD Technicians at the moment. I'm down on work right now, since I fell 6 feet into a storm-drain today, and probably broke my tailbone. Everytime I sit on my fat ass I get teary-eyed. 2008 is definitely off to a bad start for me.


I know we do Geotechnical stuff, which may be in-line with Geography, but I'm not sure how much we're doing out of our Georgia office.

It is interesting, as my old Supervisor at my last company had a degree in Geography. Geography is fun times.
