My ideal job is one that allows me to be a self-starter within a motivated team environment. I see myself working in the field of systems management where real-time engineering support, data trending, system health checks, and development and maintenance of operational procedures are just a part of my daily tasks. Initially, the job would entail specialized training of the environment provided by seasoned professionals, as well as plenty of self-study, in order to become a viable team contributor. The work must be exhilarating, rather than just simply a series of mundane system checking tasks. Directly responding to abnormalities that provide real-time system correction to satellites and space and/or aircraft would be just the sort of thrill that would keep me excited for each upcoming day’s work. Controlling the systems of flight is akin to the ever-dynamic control innately sustained by the sub-conscience of any living organism…to know each morning that my day will be filled with providing such support to a man-made system that can travel and communicate to places in space that most every child dreams about going to is as breath-taking as the sights that this child would encounter.
