    My current job is a Manufacturing Process Engineer at a small company that makes RF components for Telecommunications. We mostly build low noise RF amplifiers for cell phone basestations these days. My educational background is Mechanical and Materials Engineering.

    I am an electrical engineer testing audio and digial signal processing equipment for safety and international regulatory compliance. The poll categories seem a bit odd to me. I didn't know Federal Employee and State Employee were ocupations.

    Agreed. And you could be a Federal/State Employee whose job falls into another category, such as legal or computer.

    There are two types of people: those who group people into two types, and those who don't.
