How do you tell people what you do?

cheesiechanman
When people ask me what I do for a job I always say I am a CMM programmer. This always leads to confused looks. So I usually follow up with "I measure stuff." If they have further questions I hit em with "essentially I perform complex measurements using the science of manufacturing (GD&T) by programming a machine to measure parts." After that there are no more questions.

What is your go to description of what you do?

  • I usually say, "I do programming for automated measurement equipment."

    Which is honestly a slight portion of what I actually do because I am split between programming and a Quality Engineer working with PPAP documentation and new product launches, MSA, Cap Studies, etc etc.

    They typically say, "Oh, cool!" and that is that.
