  • “In my job, we build things to make people happy, well, safe. We fix problems, sometimes using only what we can find laying around. Almost everything that is built has at least one of us working on it. We work on flying things, driving things, very very tiny things, and huge things. We make the places where people live and the things they use every day. We make things that can save lives, and things that can make their own things. Our job is important, and we want your help doing it!”
