Flyer Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 It's been a while since I've posted or even been on this board, but I still think about you guys... I am a degreed Mechanical Engineer working at the largest steel producer in the United states, Nucor, as a Hotmill Mechanical Technician. I am responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of an area of the Hotmill. This is more responsibility than I had in mind when I graduated from college, but the money and satisfaction of working with mechanical equipment all day make it well worth the stress involved. Steelworkers are a different breed... --Flyer '99 'Vert 'Vette 45k '97 SLS 55k Deceased: <'68 Mustang 200+k>, <'86 GMC S-10 180+k>, <'86 VW GTI 180+k>, <'86 Seville 195+k>, <'93 Seville 175+k> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poobah Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 This thread ran for some time about a year ago. We have added many new members since then. I thought it would be interesting to revive the thread and find out a little about our newer members. (Who knows, some of the older members might want to update their info, too.) Happiness is owning a Cadillac with no codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenJ Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 I am a degreed Mechanical Engineer working at the largest steel producer in the United states, Nucor A recently retired friend of mine told me his stock portfolio had just passed the $1M mark. He credited Nucor in large part. Hope you own some of your company's stock! Regards, Warren There is no means of avoiding the final collapse of a boom brought about by credit expansion. The alternative is only whether the crisis should come sooner as the result of a voluntary abandonment of further credit expansion, or later as a final and total catastrophe of the currency system involved. - Ludwig von Mises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigjayzway Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 I use to be a proffessional bodyguard/private investigator. On June 15 2002, it was all taken away from me! I was struck, and left for dead by a drunk driver! I suffered a broken back, neck, punctured lung, shattered collar, cracked skull, and broken shoulder. After 3½ years of rehabilitation, I am able to walk,(but with minimal amounts) sit (for 20 minutes or so), sleep(no more than 3 hour at a time). I suffer brain damage, I can't remember things from day to day. I gained over 300lbs from the steriods(lost 148 of it so far) they fed me in the hospital. I am now legally disabled, and money is tight. Nothing like making so much money, you don't know what to do with it, to a disability cheque once a month. canadian95sts and I now have our own company, as he too was in the same boat as me. We have a reclaim company. Like a "repo" man, but we will go reclaim anything, for anyone! We both have over 15 years experience, and love doing it on our terms, and conditions! Need something reclaimed??? Big Jay Life is too short to grow up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marika Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 Need something reclaimed??? Big Jay Yeah, how about my youth If you really want to make people safe drivers again then simply remove all the safety features from cars. No more seat belts, ABS brakes, traction control, air bags or stability control. No more anything. You'll see how quickly people will slow down and once again learn to drive like "normal" humans.

Nice to know people are still willing to help without wanting something in return. I work for Rarar Industries in Michigan. We are a Automotive Manufacturing Company. In a nut shell we stamp parts in dies for about 32 customers including the Big 3. We have probably made some of your Caddy parts. We also weld Assemblies of parts.Radar Industries I Manage the Engineering CAD Dept. and do System Administration.

winterset Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 I guess I am a newbie too, although, I was reading this site (& the previous one) for a long time. I am kept very busy at my job, in a very tough field where I am a communications engineer. I have worked for AT&T/Lucent since I graduated in 1990. Prior to that in College & stuff, I worked for IBM. I currently work on what's called EVDO. (or wireless broadband). The Verizon/Sprint commercials are on TV all the time. I kinda believe I don't have many posts because I have had very few issues with my 96 Deville w97k. I thought I was going to have to change my oil sensor a few weeks ago, but it "fixed itself" I put a wiper blade on last night so will pass inspection this morning. I have learned lots of neet troubleshooting / diag tricks on this site, (a post from the other day, I was watching my HVAC cluster to see when my transmission selonoids 1&2 were energized & stuff. It's neet. BTW, I installed a OEM active audio amp/ CD/cass head unit / 12 trunk disk. -required lot's of wireing, but that's what being an enthusiast is all about - right. I will probably soon replace the trunk CD with a IPOD and the adapter or so. BTW, I usually read this site at the airport, or in the car (As a passenger). It's nice to know all of you.
