Just joined recently. I am always looking for new information in the blood banking industry. I am QA officer for a moderately sized combination donor center and transfusion service. This is my second career. I was a locomotive engineer for Missouri Pacific RR running high speed freight and passenger trains between Houston and New Orleans for 21 years. I retired in 1990, and obtained my BS in Medical Technology in 1992. I have been a bench technologist, lab director, and now QA officer. I also graduated from law school in 2005, and I still run passenger excursion trains on weekends in the Austin, TX area over 167 miles of track through the Central Texas hill Country. Besides that, I am a captain in the Texas State Guard, and have participated in military missions running field hospitals during Hurricane Katrina, Hurricane Rita, and down in the Texas Lower Rio Grand Valley on the Texas-Mexico border. Finally, I am a specialist in hazardous materials decontamination, and I am head of my hospital's hazmat decontamination team, as well as a member of a military hazardous materials decontamination team. Other than all that, I just sit around the house doing nothing

Welcome QA Bob. I have seen you post on the AABB boards. You certainly keep busy. I feel the need to take a nap after reading your bio.

Welcome Bob,

Thanks for joining, we hope you continue to visit and post.

Thank you for your military service.

Welcome to BloodBankTalk Bob! You sure do keep busy! It's what keeps us healthy!

Hey Bob I wondered how long it would take you to find this place. Welcome aboard.

Thanks, John. I will try not to ramble incoherently on this site as much as I usually do.
