I was looking for jobs in the summer of 2011 and came across an awesome sounding one for a product development company called Synapse. I was attempting to find a way to stand out from the other applicants when I read the last line of the job description. They wanted someone who had a personal martini making robot. The requirement was a joke but a challenge. What other applicant would actually make a robotic martini maker? I wanted to apply for the job quickly so my build needed to be fast utilizing components that I had laying around. Luckily, I had pretty much everything I needed.
