Default it's that time again....How old are you and what do you do?

Posted By: DaveW

I'm 57, electronics engineer for Agilent Technologies (used to be Hewlett-Packard). Made a living the past 15 years figuring out how to test cell phones. Been in manufacturing, R&D, now in marketing. A few changes in that market.

Live near Spokane, WA. Not exactly the Mecca of old cardboard.

Graduated Purdue, both kids went to CU. So, from there I've picked up a strong negative bias against almost everyone from Texas - even though I lived there from age 8 to 16. But I think the Aggies are more rational fans than those from Texas. Best fans I ever met were from Missouri. Makes me root for Missou if CU isn't playing.

I'm planning on retirement at the end of this year, will probably continue as a consultant on a cellular standards committee. Very specialized, good pay for not much work.

Committee = A group that keeps minutes and takes hours. (Milton Berle)

editd to add where I live
