Up until a month ago I was working as a facilities management design drafter as a temp for TDIndustries at the Boeing-Corinth (now Labinal-Corinth) plant in Corinth, Texas, north of Dallas. New company bought the plant back in June and proceeded to do a massive layoff of support staff last month. Over 120 were given the pink slip -- our facilities department was pared down 75%.
I've been a design drafter/engineering techinician for the past 12 years, and it's taken me places other than just a nice quiet desk... from slogging along the right of way of a major interstate highway to spending two weeks inside of a mountain (the DoD's Alternate Joint Communication Center inside Raven Rock mountain on the MD/PA border. Interesting work, though.
