It's a government scale. I'm not sure what it is. But no one does it for the money. I work in an office building in the restricted area of Kennedy Space Center. I need a security clearance.
Some days are longer.
Sometimes I have proximity to Endeavour. We have horizontal processing facilities and then we've got the launch pad and the vertical assembly building where we mate Endeavour to the external tank and the SRBs. A lot of my job is paperwork, tracking requirements and configurations, and project management. Making sure we've installed what we're supposed to for each mission. When the shuttle's in orbit, you're preparing for the next mission.
