I'm a software/web consultant. I like looking through the server logs mid-day to see who's browsing the main site (we don't keep statistics on forum usage). It's always a bunch of people using thei

I am a police officer in a city south of Boston, 6 years so far. I work the midnight shift to give myself more time for golfing, although it doesn’t always work out as planned haha.

I'm a lead aircraft mechanic for a major US airline.  I work in what's called "line maintenance,"  When you have a pilot say that the mechanics are working on the plane at the gate, that's my guys out there bending the wrenches.  As I lead, I handle administrative functions such as schedules, payroll, and training, along with ordering parts, being a point of contact for pilots, and other divisions within the airline.  Sometimes, they let me out to work on airplanes too.

Sounds interesting & hard given the constant hacking attempts.

the thing that amazes me is how many steps I need to go through to  access the corporate system I have access to yet hackers can defeat safeguards of major companies & governments that should have top notch security,

I think it's more making it a 1 in 1 million type of event versus a 1 in 100 type of event.

So I’m new here and I’m a LTL truck driver. I’ve been playing since I was 4 and my dad (professional) has taught me since then. I’m not scratch and probably never will be since I have 4 kids, 2 grandkids and 5… yes 5 nieces and nephews. Time doesn’t allow me to play as much as I need to to be better and I’m ok with it. I hope to meet a lot of you and if you’re in arky, holler at me.

I worked in finance for 20 years in Switzerland, now I run a luxury tour operator in Colombia and I actually offer custom-made golf trips throughout the country. I've always been close to golf (my dad and some close friends play) but I just started to learn. This week I played my first 9-hole course and I'm excited to get better!

You're WAY too young!  You should have to wait until you can only hit your driver 280.

This reminds me, I'm not a retired geotechnical engineer.  My new career as volunteer golf rules official typically pays me a ham sandwich and a soft drink, but its more fun.

      Would You Rather…?

      By klineka ·

      Option #2 because I'd add the condition that it's in a tournament. Because that'd mean I'd break par in a tournament. And I already have a hole in one.

      Would You Rather…?

      By Ty_Webb ·

      Hole in one is nice, but those low rounds stick in my memory better. I have two holes in one (and a third on a pitch and putt course which I count as a half). I've shot in the 60s three times in the last 10 years or so and I remember each one pretty well. I'd take the low round.

      Would You Rather…?

      By dennyjones ·

      Would You Rather #68: Would you rather make a hole-in-one on a perfectly struck shot, during a round where you otherwise played pretty poorly.  or  Would you rather play well all day and beat your personal best by let's say 3 strokes, but with no eagles.    I'd take option 2.   Although option 1 is always exciting, and rewarding. playing well all day is very exciting because I can also do the opposite.

      Would You Rather…?

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      I've got two of them.  So for me it depends. If I'm playing with friends and they know me. I'm taking the hole-in-one. Because they know my game anyway. Let's go for the awesome moment/bragging rights.  If I'm in a tournament I'm taking the low round, because I want to win.  If I'm playing with a bunch of strangers, and I just show up, and get paired up. I'm leaning toward taking the low round. I could leave them thinking I'm better than I am. Plus for me that would be a 73. ... That would be cool.

      Hole in one is a lifetime achievement, so that.
