I design/build oil refineries . Actually, I'm the Sr. Project Manager, so mostly I protect my project team from our corporate management and let them do their jobs.

I'm a powertrain engineer for a company that builds mobile mining equipment. I spend most days playing with 1000 horsepower diesel engines.
