    saw a blurb on the news about future job demands. computer software engineers, expected to need an additional 1.3 million over the next 5 years, paying an average of $90,000....yep, should have done that i guess

    General Dentist...second one in this thread!!!

    BTW, my daughter is a senior at a major Chicago university majoring in computer animation AND digital film editing. I noticed a number of film editors in this thread. Anyone interested in a dean's list (all nine quarters) student that is a very talented film editor and animator? Please drop me a note and I can forward her info to you...along with a sample "reel" of her work.

    Currently she is working for Chicago radio stations Q101 and the LOOP FM...creating and editing film interviews/band segments that are posted on their website and the Q101 YouTube.

    And, aside from being very talented and smart...she is cute as a button!

    love the plate!! would love to read the minds of people when they see it. just wondering how many "normal" (or are we normal and non-Pri owners "abnormal?") people will know what NiMH means? definitely looks like an inside secret here!


    i just realized that this is a new "what do you do" poll. have done this a few times here, but i am a customer service rep for a major wireless provider.

    and like the AT&T guy, i also have no power, cant pull strings, etc... at work, even the janitor bosses me around!!

    ...Which is why my job as a FINRA compliance regulatory consultant (self employed 11 years after working for them) is secure, despite the recession :D That said, I help firms comply with SEC rules but the SEC regulates MMs for the most part (some part, little part...) If you abided by the 5% mark-up rule, it was a really big trade (and contrats!) and if not, good timing to retire with all eyes on Bernie Maddoff :eek:.
