Hey Rockgurl - I know what you mean about working in a hospital. I did two summers working as an Operating Department Orderly when I was at Uni. Incredible experience - especially when we had a team come in to do a 'kidney harvest'. Best bit was when they called the recipient from the staff room immediately after removing the kidneys : "You're where? Down the pub? Ok - don't have anything more to drink - get yourself to the hospital - we have a kidney for you!"
Anyway... These days I'm a Technical Product Manager for Sun Microsystems. That means I talk to customers about their software requirements and translate that into something the engineers can build. Then I take what the engineers have built and explain to the customers how it solves their problem. I was in engineering for 12 years before, but felt the call of the dark side (marketing).
Cheers,
Pat

catching wild turkeys is somewhat akin to catching pigs ...it takes
skill, determination and all round knowledge of the game ... oh and a gun !

I thought you just went out into the woods and made a noise like a turkey and they all come flocking round. Or did you mean the Bourbon? (Nastly stuff, anyway.)

Before that I was a Sports Writer for the local paper.
