I'll tell you when I get some work given to me. I honestly don't know myself. >_>;

Well, when they hired you, what did they -tell- you that your job description was? XD

Well, I'm going to be at some point trained in a specific technology and become the expert on it for Fluor for when they get projects of that nature. Right now though, all I'm supposed to do is organize and gather data pretty much when the project gets started and slowly gather experience over the course of a few years, maybe occassionally doing some of the simpler calculations.

Congrats on the job, again. It is a bit boring, but enjoy the regularity and stress free environment of the first couple weeks. It will get worse. And truthfully, there is no substitute for experience. The calibur of the employee is determined not by how bright the person is, but how the person applies the knowledge they have.
