    I'm a physical security expert, currently focused on low-traffic / high-security environments, where I supervise an excellent group of practitioners at a specific site. I'm a promotion away from my dream job, so I've armed myself with an MA and a PSP certification (I'll have a CPP soon as well) in preparation for that opportunity...

    No, I'm an engineer for the Toyota Technical Center here in Ann Arbor. I haven't heard of Meridian before, what do they specialize in?

    They make all sorts of subsystems. Entire front ends, interior panels, etc. I mostly worked on the interiors for GM mid-size, and Cadillac interior panels. Also did some testing.

    Gah. I'll never work in automotive again. Chews you up and spits you out. I don't need that kind of stress.
