I'm a Mechanical Designer, been designing disk drivers for the past 20 years for Digital then Quantum then Maxtor (who just got bought up by Seagate)....I live in between Boston and Worcester, so anyone out there know of a possible job lead drop me a line and I will forward you my resume, for folks that work in this field, I've got 10+ years of PRO-E and I've got a few years of Solidworks under my belt (these are 3d modeling cad tools)...positive vibes can't hurt !

I've not had a steady job since April 14th. But i've been doing some temp work for the past 6 weeks hoping an offer is made to me soon. Congrats on the return to the work force. When I started temp work after being home for 6 weeks it felt great to return. Plus I meet some cool people.

I’m a Network Administrator for a Multi National Engineering Firm.
We specialize in the Steel and Aluminum Industry. We do Blast furnaces
Coke Oven’s, Basic Oxygen Furnace’s, Electric Furnace’s, Rolling Mills etc.
So basically I’m the IT go to guy for our North American operations.
After work this is the only site I feel like visiting because another hour in front of the computer is just like work. Disadvantage of the job.

where I work
Update from when I last responded.
I now work as a contract engineer for Auto Alliance International doing AutoCAD drawings of the assembly lines. Auto Alliance is actually a joint venture with Ford and Mazda in Flatrock MI.
