I assume it means that you interpret what parts a customer requires?

Thats the usual response Would take a while to explain, but in a nutshell its a type of geotechnical investigation. I live in hotels monday - friday (writing this from my hotel room), spend all week driving from one corner of the cuntry to another, pushing cones in the ground with 25 ton truck/crawler and i do the same thing offshore hanging off the edge of huge boats and drill platforms.


One of the crawlers on its truck


The last boat i worked on (the white one with legs)


If your really intrested/sad and want to know more checkout www.fes.co.uk

when people phone while I'm working, I can answer with "I'm Penetrating" and I get to buy condoms 50 at a time, much to the embarrassment of the till tart working the checkout at tesco/boots, and charge it to company expenses!
