ok. I modified the poll. The ability to edit polls looks like it's based on us all being decent people. I'd say you could make some people look a little funny by changing the prompt and responses. 

You forgot to include gravedigger option. In this economy that would be maybe one the few jobs left. I heard the government is cutting down on the $200 death benefits and instead giving you a do it yourself cremation kit that includes one gallon of gas and a box of matches.

I noticed there are several engineers.  Any other Auburn grads?

 

War Eagle!! I used to sit in the stands and chant, "GO, BO, GO!!" I just followed jobs, slowly moving north . . . . but the benefits were worth it [including PPL and Mooney].

I knew there had to be at least one more.  We are just outside Auburn and are always hiring engineers.  Let me know if you decide to move back south.

I know where Troy is; I had friends from Opp and Enterprise. If I recall, Troy is on the highway to Panama City, which has cleaned up its act and is no longer "the Redneck Riviera."

30 years in Medical Equipment Management. 25 years with the same employer this month.  12 years in management of this business. Now I'm just the old guy in the back. They have to see if I'm breathiing periodically, They don't want me to die on the job.

That sounds like my retirement plan. I received it in the mail yesterday; it's a plastic bag with a roll of duct tape with instructions to place the bag over my head and tape tightly around my neck unitl I reitre!

Wow, a lot of electrical engineers in this room.  Maybe there should be a EE thread to solve convolution integrals and root-locus problems.
