And SJR, I know someone was going to say that. That whole situation was the foreman's fault. He called the Mechanic that was changing the wheel off the job to help him do something which took too long to complete and never marked it off as unsafe to ride.
It only takes one mistake, lol...

Biomed tech is a position at our company.

Does your company employ over 30k people?

PM me if needed, or you can throw out part of the Mission Statement and I'll figure it out.

I was actually gonna try to get you on here as a graphics guy . I'm not sure if our last "after-effects" guy was coming back or not. (I'm at work right now, and i have some pull on hiring and firing) But congrats on FINALLY finding a gig. I know you were sweating it! Glad you didn't have to sell the ride either. I saw it at the meet, and wanted to say hi to you, but didn't know what you looked like.
