Re: What's your day job?

I work on radio telescopes part time, and build Nixie tube wristwatches in my spare time. Both seem to be about equally lucrative, but one has benefits.

When you think of a radio telescope as a 5 story building full of every sort of electronics from superconducting cryogenic receivers to big 50 HP motors and everything in between, all of it serial number one, you can see why it's fun.
