...into the fire of Prince Satan (er, Sultan) Air Base...where it's not quite Hell, but you can feel the heat from there... :grin:

Yep, that's right, Mike has a job!! (insert wild screaming and applause here) It's pretty much the same as what I was doing in Bosnia, but this time I won't have to go and scrape snow off the satellite dish... :rolleye

And having a couple of beers and a good porno mag after work is probably out of the question.

Mike,

Sorry if I didn't catch this elsewhere, but can you tell us a little bit about what it is that you do?

Curious..

Certainly, Lars... I do long haul communications. The easiest comparison would be like the trunk lines between telephone offices. My job involves taking all the voice and data communications for a specific area and sending it where it needs to go across various equipment and transmission systems. Sounds a lot more difficult than it actually is... :smile:

I spent a week there one night.

Then it was off to King Fahd.

Do you work in Central Office type set-ups or no?

 

[mnealtx]

That's what I was originally trained in, yes..but I'm so far behind the 'state of the art' it's not even funny. What I do now would be more on the trunk side of the house...
