I'm a maintenance guy in an oil filter factory. I fix the machines that make Cat oil filters.

Before that I did maintenance in a brake hose factory.

Before that I spent 11 years fixin' stuff in an injection molding shop that made parts for GM, Chrysler and Mitsubi...whatever. We did some die cutting to using those fancy steel rule dies mentioned very early in this thread.

Who knows whats next!

The machines I design cut the raw materials as it comes off the rolls. Very possible that your machines are used later in the manufacturing process.

 

I do fleet maintenance at the U of Arizona. Everything from golf karts to large diesel trucks and fire trucks.
As long as there's people to edumacate, I'll have something to work on!

 

Operations Manager for a large interstate moving company. I was an owner operator for too many years running coast to coast in a tractor trailer. I'm thinking this definitely falls under the transportation industry!

 

Student, so I guess I'm tired because I sit in class all day, day dream cars, and sketch them out.

 

I'm in advertising, but work exclusively with automotive clients, mostly dealer groups. My company's focus is mainly one-to-one and targeted advertising.
