Something that is new, is Dennis's new job. After working at the Goodyear Dunlop Tire North America manufacturing facility here in Buffalo as a Quality Specialist for the last 16 months, I have taken a position at SIGMA International as a Quality Engineer. In this position I am responsible for the validation of equipment and the manufacturing process, regulatory matters and compliance of procedures by the employees. (Don't worry if you have no idea what I do, Teresa still doesn't)
SIGMA is a medical device company that manufactures "smart" (drug error prevention) infusion pumps. These pumps are usually found in hospitals attached to an IV Drip. Check out their website. For all of the readers out there that have had an IV or work in the medical field, chances are the drug pump you have seen was the Specturm Pump from SIGMA.
After three weeks at my new job, I have found myself enjoying every minute of it and loaded with projects. I have hit the ground running since this position and industry is similar to what I did during my four year tenure at the Pharmaceutical company. The only down side to this job is the location. SIGMA is located in the small town of Medina, NY, which about 45 miles away from our house in Kenmore. On the up side, I have 3 colleagues that all live nearby so we are able to carpool, which helps during this time of high gas prices.
