Mechanical engineer. I design machines that package foods. It's cool, the machines are big chonks with tons of servos and conveyor belts flinging things around (doing stuff like gently touching sausage, or cramming 10,000 cans an hour of beer into boxes). My company is a worker co-op, so we actually have financial and decision making power in the company, and we're not making some rich asshole even richer.
I used to be a Little Eichmann working in the military industrial complex, literally designing missiles for a company who's name you definitely know. My younger self didn't reflect on the implications of that for years, despite being an anti war :LIB: .
