As a Field Service Engineer, I only see most of my coworkers a few times a year. Currently, the company I'm contracted to is completely staffed with New Yorkers and New Jersey-ites. I've been working on them, though. Another FSE is a guy who immigrated here from Guyana, in South America. He's a big time NASCAR fan. The weight-horsepower ratio comparison between my favorite kind of racing and his definitely has him interested in seeing a sprint car race. Most of the rest of the people there just look at me like I'm from another planet when I talk about this. I think most of them have trouble with the concept of earth that isn't covered in concrete.
