*LanceS13* · 10-04-2001, 07:42 PM

I had a summer job as a temp working for Entergy's Accounts Payable dept. I maintained vendor documents and did alot of paperwork and data entry. Now I'm a full time student. I go to class half the day and spend the other half working on Mass and Energy Balance, Fluid Flow Operations, Physics, and Calculus problems...you can only imagine how fun this is:).....NOT! I get paid to go to school from scholarships, but I've already spent this semester's check on my car :biggrin:. If all goes as planned, I'll be a Chemical Engineer when I graduate in 3yrs. They deal with all kinds of stuff...plastics development, petroleum refinement, chemical production (of course), pulp and paper, environmental conervation and revitalization (which is the area I think I might specialize in), plant design, process design, R&D, and more.

JeffNJ · 10-05-2001, 01:16 PM

On my way through border patrol headed to Montreal, the booth guy asked myself and my friends what we all did. Maybe you had to be there, but...

Guard: What do you do?
Me: (calmly) I'm a web developer.
Guard: And you, sir?
Rick: (calmly) I'm a network technician.
Guard: And you?
Alexx: (proudly) I work at Diary Queen.

It was great.

Anyway, I'm a web developer, so you should all go http://www.goamerica.net right now and send my boss email about how much you love it! =) Well, maybe I shouldn't give out her email addr just yet. Seriously though, please swing by and look at the site. I contribute very heavily to it's design, so I would love some feedback about it.

Oh, and after you see that we provide wireless internet access to handheld devices, check out http://www.goamerica.net/jeff/wl240sx.gif to see a graphic you'll all love and looks great on tiny b&w lcd screens. =)
