heh just re-read what i was doing back then. changed now...
worked an internship at GE Energy over the summer. got stuck in IT even though i talked to the interviewer about hardware design the whole time. worked out though because i got to talk with the people that i should have been working for. they gave me a couple small C# projects, had to learn C# on the job and everything, which was pretty cool.
after that i took fall semester off to do another co-op at Flowserve in lynchburg, va. the company as a whole does industrial piping, like power plant/refinery cooling, oil, etc type stuff. i was in the the flow control division, which does actuators. i got to do embedded software for the mainboard of the actuators and they offered me a part-time position while i'm at school for spring semester. so i'll be finishing up my computer engineering degree at tech and working remotely for flowserve come mid-january.
got a job offer from GE last month that i took. i start there in june after i take a trip to france to see the 24 hours of le'mans. going to be helping design the firmware for the controls of GE gas, wind, and steam turbines.
so yeah, fun times
