      While I can't speak for every company in the biz, I would imagine that most reputable companies would have a legitimate link. There are so many lawsuits against lenders today that the bigger companies are taking these kinds of issues seriously. I know mine is.

        I don't know what a 24P is. Army?

        I was an NEC 1127. Fire Controlman.

        NEC=Navy Enlistment Code.

            As a software engineer, would you design programs or would you make a game or application?
            It qualifies me for all of the above, actually. Most jobs also require experience as well though, and therein lies the problem.

              What are those?

                Sorry, I should've been more specific, as I don't know what an NEC 1127 Fire Controlman is, either. In the Army, what is sounds like what you are describing is the Vulcan system, which essentially spit out a wall of lead for enemy aircraft to run into. One of my jobs in the Army was a 24C, which I think in the Navy was the SparrowHawk system, which was a 40km range anti-aircraft missile system. FYI.

                  Yes I worked on the Vulcan, and it does sound like sea sparrow.

                  In the Navy you would be a Firecontrolman. Firecontrolmen are grouped together no matter what weapon system they work on.

                  The NEC tells you what system.

                  ACK!

                    Unit Supply Specialist and Psychological Operations Specialist. Supply was B-O-R-I-N-G but had a big enlistment bonus so I signed up for supply and then immediately jumped over to Psyops because they got to travel more and promotions were easier.

                      So basically you work Psyops for both sides?

                        I was in one of the first classes thru on repair of solid state electronics on HAWK Systems back in '84 in El Paso. I can't tell you what a relief solid state was over tubes (no bad inference on "Tuberski" here) at that point in time! As far as your Vulcan system was concerned: what a marvel it was to watch that system fire! Absolutely outrageous what it did/ can do! I was out at White Sands Firing Range watching Vulcan Batteries qualify, and watching their tracers, and realizing that for every tracer there were 10 "regular" rounds, why all I could see was a wall of tracers! Wish I had a digital camera at that time, to convey the images/influence!

                          I am a Foreign Language Instructor (FLT).

                          I work with kindergarten, elementary, middle school, high school, and adult students.

                          I don't get paid much, but I do get a free appartment and the opportunity to see other countries.

                          I have a BA in His/Pol Sci.

                          I plan on returning for a MA and then doing whatever the hell I want. (landlord, travel, more English, law school, Judge Advocate General program, whatever).

What does everyone else do?
                            I am organizing a partial buyout of a telephone directory distribution company, whereupon we will undergo a re-org, replacing the current President (but still keeping him with the company - he knows it's time for a change, and he's kind of relieved about it). Either I or another partner will be made President, and I will be the largest shareholder. This agreement will be consumnated on September 1, 2003, one day past the expiration of the non-compete held against me by my parents.

                            Once we/I get this ship righted, we will likely conduct a buyout of the smaller players in the industry.

                            And yes, I spend a lot of my time behind a computer screen.

                              don't know exactly where Si Heung is, but I lived in Taegu for 15 months, and I climbed Kumosan 3 times, and Opsan once. Magnificent views from each!
