    Got this idea from the Long Travel "What do you do" thread.

    Show everyone the view at your work! It really can be anywhere, as long as you are working when you are there.

    I will attach my photos in another post so the thumbnail on the main page will change as people add theirs.

    I work for the Mariners doing Scoreboard Operations. I have to go all over the ballpark from time to time to check on cameras, radar guns, LED panels, etc.

    The first pic is from the Control Room, where my desk is. The second is from on top of the retractable roof, because why the hell not.

    Here is my view from my cube/office. The parking lot across the way is for the LA Regional Office Toyota/Scion. I saw the new FR-S a lot before the dealers got them.
