Technically, it's my first full time job. I'm graduating college with a mechanical engineering degree in May and I just signed the paperwork this afternoon.
I will be working in the department that makes the metal links for machine gun belts for the U.S. government. Talk about a sweet gig!
I'm just so thankful I'm done with job applications and interviews!

Congrats! I guess the old adage of "mechanical engineers make weapons, civil engineers make targets" really is true.

Congratulations! My nieces and nephews are all graduating with good degrees and are having a heck of a time. I really feel bad for young folks hitting the market right now.
Great job!

I must say I am severely jealous, although I am very happy for you. I graduated last May with a civil engineering degree, and I have yet to find anything. I'm currently working at a local HVAC company and Best Buy to make ends meet. Although I'm not where I want to be, I am extremely grateful for the two jobs that I do have. Many people can't even find one. Again, congratulations, and share the luck

Thanks for all the kind words guys!
Now I just have to figure out what self defense tools are actually legal for me to have in my car since its a military base. Anyone who frequently works on a base knows all the security requirements that go with that.
