Re: What's your day job?
I launch rockets.
It actually isn't rocket science though. I am an electrical engineer working on telemetry data for the Delta program. I am lucky enough to support launch days on console (in Denver, not at the launch sites) and there is nothing that can reproduce the feeling of being polled before coming out of the T-4 min hold. The downside to be on console: all of my slip ups are now recorded and saved for history. Yep, that infamous 2am night during NPP's flight will go down in history!
By night I'm a grad student and mentor. I'll sleep when I'm dead.
