    Wave I'm a newbie(sort of)

    Hello all!

    My name is "K", and I am somewhat new to Optiboard. I have been on here for awhile now, but have not really introduced myself. I've even made a few small comments on a couple of threads, but don't get much feedback, and I can only guess because no one knows me! Quite a few of you I see around a lot, and you all make me laugh so here's me....

    I am lab technician at a wholesale lab, and have been here for almost four years now. Ever since my first day in the lab I have been very interested in the optical world, and can't seem to get enough. I started out as the low woman on the totem pole. But I am proud to say that I have learned A LOT and am now one of three supervisors here, and I have my own section entirely. Looking forward to more years, and new things to learn. Hope to make lots of friends on here!

    ~K

    In fact, post provocatively, start a good arguement, revel in the fact that so many buttons are so easily pushed. You'll be able to sort through the serious responses, and laugh over the foaming-mouth types.

    If you got dragged due to the fact it "gets deep", it definitely wasn't because you live in sand land.

    Maybe in fact you're living on a quick sand dune. I would suggest requesting a rope or something.
