CAD - With my pants on this time!

That's right! I had to CAD with my pants on today!! You guessed it! I am employed once again and started today. I am working for a Civil Engineering, Surveying, Planning and Landscape Architecture firm. A few years ago I was doing this type of work. Now I'm back and I get to use Civil3D!! I'm going to start off getting the Landscape Architecture department back on track then move over to engineering. I'll also be helping out the planning and surveying departments. I've done this type of work before (yes all of it and more) so I will be able to help out every department.

So what do my pants have to do with CAD? Well, for the past month I've been laid off but working nearly everyday. I worked hard finishing my AutoCAD 2012 Fundamentals training video. It is in final editing and should be available in the coming weeks, just in time for summer.

While working at home, i would lock myself in a room and record videos. I typically wore shorts and a T-shirt. I didn't have to wear pants. I didn't even wear shoes! Being a professional place of business (my new employer) I am required to wear pants, socks and shoes! What a concept!

I'm very excited about my new employment. I enjoyed working out of my home, but it wasn't paying much. I didn't expect to find work, good work, this quickly. I am truly blessed.
