I'm a Senior Staff Restatement Specialist, consulting with companies subject to stock option backdating investigations. I help them figure out how many more millions of dollars they have to expense from over the last several years, leading to a lower earnings per share, and possibly a much different stock price, depending on shareholder reaction.

Don't worry, my wife doesn't know what it means either.

My xB takes me 150 miles from Marysville to San Jose each week, so I'd also like to say HI to all the xBs I see on the I-20, 70, 99, 5, 80, and 680.

Are you a P.E.?

I am working towards my civil engineering degree right now though the air force. Plan to go officer to finish out my 20 years as an actual engineer verus a draftsman(cad/GIS)/surveyor(GPS/conventional). After I retire I hope to get into a project management job for a big construction company or for DoD. I just dont know if it be worth getting my PE.

Not very many union brothers on here I see.. well, that have replied, anyway.

United Steelworkers Local 88, but the line of work I'm in has nothing at all to do with making steel..

I am a chemical operator at a major chemical company. I run a production kettle that makes all sorts of things.. coatings ( you may read that as paint, but not the finished kind you can get at Home Depot), glue, shampoo, and sunscreen to name a few. I started my 21st year there this past October.
