Best Buy.

IE Future Shop for Canucks.

Heh so somewhat similar to what I'm doing then. Though NCIX tends to sell a lot more bare components and custom built PCs and the like. A lot of my customers wither already know what they want and just hand me a SKU number.

Really? How's that? I could imagine it being both good and hellish.

I've been a valet at a 5 star before as well. In 15 months I never drive an exotic italian sports car. Was rarely ever tipped, and was expected to wipe their ass by both management and customers. However, we did have some nice hotel escalades that we got to take on "lunch break", and I made 10 an hour + whatever tips I got.

edit: i actually looked at their website to see what the rating was...its only a 4 diamond from AAA...but it made top 500 hotels in the world...

Field engineer for high-end scientific instruments. Mainly Agilent HPLC's and GC's. You know, the big, fancy instruments you see on the CSI shows. Yes, the ones that give them results that are impossible to obtain by the methods they use!

HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography)
GC (gas chromatography)

Usually it isn't so much that it's impossible to get the results so much as they have ridiculous databases on those shows that don't exist anywhere in real life. Analyze pain flake found at crime scene. Oh it looks like this paint has the following impurities in it. Insert into "every fucking paint manufactured since 1899 broken down by chemical composition" database. Oh looks like Bob Black is our murderer!

Hi-five! :awe:

I'm a field engineer for clinical laboratory instruments, particularly chemistry and immunoassay analyzers, as well as laboratory automation. Mine are the instruments on which hospital labs test patient blood samples (plasma, really, after the samples are centrifuged) for concentrations of particular chemical constituents (i.e. electrolytes, glucose, tumor markers, cardiac markers, etc)
