The best part of my job (Porsche Tech) are the road tests. I get to drive all different models every day.

Well, I use to think because I got to spend a lot of time in bars, but the real reason is the people on both side, those who work for us & those we work for.
After close to 30 years, there have been many changes but there are still a lot of fun times... When your job involves making people smile, and you can see it, all is well...

That's us.

Please note in the first page of that brochure, the image of the Tidal Power plant is reversed.

It's kind of cool. I watched them build the project 30 years ago when I was working for the Dairy. When I retired from that, I was approached to work at the plant and have been associated with the site for most of seven years.

Thanks for the link.
