Re: What's your day job?
I have worked for the United Technologies Aerospace Systems / Space Systems for almost 31 years, building various life support systems for NASA and the US Navy, including the EMU (extravehicular mobility unit, the space suit), oxygen generation, life support (human waste, water reclamation, thermal and humidity control), cooling and gas management systems for the NASA Space Shuttle, International Space Station and US Navy submarines. 1 1/2 years ago, I moved from the assembly side of the hardware to the Quality side as a Mech Inspector. I am the next to last set of eyes before these multi million dollar pieces of space life support equipment keeping our astronaurts alive, go out the door. (The last set of eyes are the DCMA / Gov't Inspectors who rely HEAVILY on us to do our jobs right.)
