Okay, well whatever the job is called where you go out on the floor and tweak the gizmos. I'll do that if I have to.

- Workaccount2 2y agoThat's a technician. Pay kinda sucks and the "big bucks" come from tons and tons of overtime and/or working 2nd/3rd shift.
- snerbles 2y agoI was a controls engineer and frequently on the floor, usually directing the technicians and sometimes adjusting brackets myself. Industrial vision systems can be quite fussy. Agreed on the pay, it would have been good if it wasn't in California.

- FredPret 2y agoIf you like tweaking gizmos, find a factory that in some way puts a label on a glass bottle. The equipment may have gotten better but in my time, entire careers went into making those labels go on straight and not jam up the machine.

- analog31 2y agoThe first place I worked after school, that job was called "the owner," and he hired me for the same kind of role. It was a very small family-run manufacturing business. For various reasons I outgrew the job, and work for a very big company today, but I still get into the plant on a regular basis. One area where you can get that kind of work is a plant that actually makes the gizmos themselves, especially if they're fairly specialized or customized.
