Was an electrician, then got my BS in electrical engineering, where I worked as a design engineer for company's like Texans Instruments and MCI Telecommunications. I am working on my MBA at night (over half way done). Slowing moving out of engineering and into management into my current company.

Patriot Act stuff?

If so, I accidentally erased a message on my voice mail the other day before I got to hear it. Could you tell me what the Doc. said is up with this rash on my Johnson?

If I'm gonna pay someone to listen to my phone calls there should be some benefits, right?

Best place to start: http://www.usajobs.gov/. Most (if not all) federal organizations are now using this common site for job postings.

It's also good to know someone inside who can give some input into the type of openings available. Where are you in your career and what are you looking for? I work for the FAA and I know that there are a lot of controller openings if you have the stomach (or nerves) for that work.

I hate USAJobs, they make it so confusing sometimes. The problem I have found is they want you to have experience at a GS 5 level. The problem is that I only have 3 months at a GS 5 from when I was a seasonal park ranger at Gettysburg.
