It's been awhile since one of these threads.
Here, we post our current employment status and what we do.
I work in IT for a civil engineering firm. I've worked there for about a year and a half.
I do not like it.

I'll agree they can be annoying at times but I wouldn't call them the worst. I am perfectly fine the the majority that email me or contact me through linked in. I HATED the few that called me at work through our work number.

I deal with a fair amount of "specialized" software companies that write software for very specific things we utilize and they seem to be pretty healthy. I'd fathom the hospitality business would be the same.queencitybuckeye;1391380 wrote:It has been for the most part, although when the economy tanks, hospitality is one of the first victims, and those who support it get hit pretty good.

Work in a compounding pharmacy as a sterilized compounding tech. Hopefully I'll be finished with school soon, but the job is great. Decent pay and the benefits are amazing.
