Director of Supply Chain for a life sciences company. I drive a nicer car than my boss, but the prez of my company and I talk about cars all the time so I'm covered. He's got an S2000. Former prez had a 7 series company car.

Need some more choices or at least an "other" option, I really don't fit any of the categories. Lots more students here than I would have expected. Times have changed.

Software consultant.
If I'm a client, and I see you get out of that car, I immediately figure I need to really work hard to lower your rates! Seriously, does that ever become an issue, or just expected on the left coast?

So why is your screen name Bazzman? It should be GordonGecko or BlueStarAirlines...

I was a little vague. Specifically, my company makes cell culture media (kind of food for cells) which we sell to major biotech companies, who in turn make drugs by using the cells to make proteins. Essentially, the cells are little factories making the drugs. Many recent blockbuster therapeutics are produced in this way.

I'm not a scientist, but I can fake it, especially with a financial guy.
