AwMyLoLo Joined Mar 2009 Posts: 679	Thu 10/29/09 07:16 AM I'm curious what everyone's jobs are... I work for an electrical contractor. We have around 100 electricians and do about $25mil in sales a year. I do a variety of accounting duties: Billing, A/R, little bit of A/P, part of Payroll, and somewhat of the personal assistant to the owner. What do you guys do?

gogoleaner Joined Aug 2009 Posts: 2,291	Thu 10/29/09 07:24 AM I am the assistant branch manager at a bank in downtown St. Louis. I pretty much run the branch because our bank requires that the branch manager be out on business calls the majority of the time. My official title is Customer Service Manager....which really has nothing to do with what I do all day. I don't help the customers all that often. Erin This body is beautiful. This body is strong. This body is unique. This body.....is mine.

paddlemom Joined Jan 2009 Posts: 287	Thu 10/29/09 08:14 AM I'm a Business Analyst. It's an IS/IT job where my role is to bridge the gap in understanding between how the business end of the company wants to to do their work and how the technical folks build the systems to get it done. It's a bit like translating Mom's general directive of "clean up your room" (the business folks) to the perspective of a 5-year-old - " first you put the Legos into the blue bin...." Sorry Banks...but you techies DO get hung up on the details
