Review The Magic Of Making Up

What is my job title?
I used to be a design engineer at this company. They laid me off for a few months and hired me back in a different position. What I do is this:
I get new project orders from the sales dept. and basically follow it all through the manufacturing process. So, I review it to make sure it’s complete, then I assign a design engineer, they work their magic, then give the job back to me. I check their manufacturing detail prints for accuracy (I have several years experience as a design engineer), then I am the one who releases it to be manufactured.
I am also the guy who is notified when the job ships so that documentation can be supplied to the customer (maintenance instructions, spare parts lists…). I also have to keep up with invoicing, scheduling, and process flow.
Any ideas what my job title is? I am being taken advantage of here at this company and I need to revamp my resume and get back out there. I can’t put my finger on a job title though.

Hard Magic $8.89 Welcome to P.U.P.I.–Private, Unaffiliated, Paranormal Investigations A handpicked team trained to solve crimes the regular police can't touch–crimes of magic. My name's Bonnie Torres. Recent college grad, magic user and severely unemployed. Until I got a call out of nowhere to interview for a job I hadn't applied for. It smelled fishy, but the brutal truth was I needed the work–so off I went. Two days later I'm a PUPI–me and Nick, Sharon, Nifty and Pietr. Five twentysomethings, thrown into an entirely new career in forensic magic. The first job we get is a doozy: proving that the deaths of two Talents were murder, not suicide. Worse, there are high-profile people who want us to close up shop and go away. We're sniffing out things they'd rather keep buried. Looks as if this job is gonna get interesting. The only problem is, we're making it up as we go along…. |

Hearts In Atlantis $29.95 The Barnes & Noble ReviewBentley Little has made his name as one of the newer masters of the horror tale, in both novel and short form (You missed The House? The Ignored? The Store? Catch up on ‘em now!) He’s written a superb and incisive review of Stephen King’s Hearts in Atlantis , originally published in Hellnotes: The Newsletter for the Horror Professional, and we just had to reprint it because we loved it so much. Now, on to Bentley Little’s take on Hearts in Atlantis… Bentley Little says: Thank God for Stephen King. When Robert McCammon decided to prove to the world that he was a serious writer, he put out Boy’s Life, an overrated amalgam of recycled Ray Bradbury, strained magic realism, and a rather lame mystery that was similar in tone (too similar, some thought) to the 1988 Frank LaLoggia film, Lady in White. A virtual renunciation of his horror past, the novel jettisoned his strengths and highlighted his weaknesses, making it hard to believe that the same author who had penned the brilliant and darkly literary Ushers’s Passing had turned out this nice, tame, Mor coming-of-age story. Stephen King has no such chip on his shoulder, no burning desire to disassociate himself from the field that made him famous. King realizes where his strengths are and also recognizes that there is nothing intrinsically demeaning about horror fiction, that it is in fact the most literary of genres. He proves this without a doubt in the brilliant Hearts in Atlantis. Consisting of two novellas and threeshortstories, all connected and all set between the years 1960 and 1999, Hearts in Atlantis concerns itself with the ’60s, their fallout, and the lost boomer generation that they spawned. And while it’s not possible to make a definitive statement about that complex and turbulent decade, |

Stuck in the 70's $5.99 One night in 1978, Tyler Gray wakes up to find a beautiful girl named Shay lying in his bathtub. For inexperienced, nerdy Tyler, this is not a common occurrence, but it’s even stranger because Shay insists that she’s from 2006. Of course Tyler doesn’t believe her, but once she proves it, they strike a deal: Tyler will try to help get Shay back to 2006 if Shay helps him become more popular. But the more time Shay spends in 1978, the more she likes it. And while she helps Tyler with the popular crowd, she also wreaks havoc by going out with his worst enemy, making over his sister and helping his mother get a job as a cafeteria worker—at his school! Can Tyler get Shay home before his life is completely turned upside down? Publishers Weekly gave D. L.

The Louisville Slugger Complete Book of Pitching $17.95 There is no one way to throw a baseball; for this simple reason the pitcher has one of the most intriguing positions in baseball. Short or tall, gawky or athletic, lefty or righty, hard thrower or crafty nibbler, anyone who can find a way to get batters out can be a good pitcher. The Louisville Slugger Complete Book of Pitching analyzes the methods of stars such as Nolan Ryan, Greg Maddux, and Tom Seaver. In addition, this book reveals what all prospective pitchers—regardless of style or stuff—need to do in order to be successful. Among the topics covered are: Building proper mechanics, from stride and delivery to release point and follow-through Throwing fastballs with varying velocity and movement around the plate Moving hitters in and out and forward and back in the box with an effective change-up Responding to key game situations and defensive responsibilities Building strength and flexibility in the arm as well as the legs and torso through customized conditioning plans Scouting opposition before game day, analyzing field conditions, and being your own coach on the mound when your stuff isn’t working Developing the mental game necessary to control emotions and deal with adversity The Louisville Slugger Complete Book of Pitching is more than just instruction.

The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference $8.49 The Barnes & Noble Review Why did crime in New York drop so suddenly in the mid-’90s? How does an unknown novelist end up a bestselling author? Why is teenage smoking out of control, when everyone knows smoking kills? What makes TV shows like Sesame Street so good at teaching kids how to read? Why did Paul Revere succeed with his famous warning? Malcolm Gladwell, a staff writer for The New Yorker, has been studying trends like these for years and has written several articles for the magazine that have developed into his new book, The Tipping Point. According to Gladwell, the Tipping Point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire. Just as a sick individual in a crowded store can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a small but precisely targeted push start a fashion trend or cause the popularity of a new restaurant to take off overnight or cause crime or drug use to taper off. In The Tipping Point, Gladwell shows how very minor adjustments in products and ideas can make them more likely to become immensely popular. He reveals how easy it is to cause group behavior to tip in a desirable direction by making small changes in our immediate environment. Gladwell introduces us to the particular personality types that are natural pollinators of new ideas and trends, the people who create the phenomenon of word of mouth. He analyzes fashion trends, smoking, children’s television, direct mail, and the early days of the American Revolution for clues about making ideas infectious. He also visits a religiouscommune,a successful high-tech company, and one of the world’s greatest salesmen to show how to start and sustain social epidemics. This is a book that should be read by everyone in business, politics, marketing and advertising, as well as by anyone interested in trends, fashion, |
