Ok fine. I'm actually finishing my MBA in June and an MHRM maybe by January while taking Physics and Math classes to prepare for my next undergrad degree and eventual career in Astrophysics.
Macintosh Admin who is now working in a graphics house. In the past, I have held positions in two companies that eventually switched to Windoze, and left those companies (even after being offered training for M$ stuff - like I was going to let them pin the blame on me when everything got more expensive!). I can proudly say that I have never held a support position that requires helping M$ products outside of Office.

drew, you know you get a nice hefty portion of AI's advertising banners by virtue of being the oldest registered member. The second oldest member is gunning for you and that pension, though, so you better watch out. (and we all know you knocked off JRC to get the esteemed position)

It was always a dubious retirement plan at best......the medication I have to take for the seizure-inducing banner ads usually eat well into that 24¢ check I get at the end of every month and sometimes the medications just don't work...I just hear voices saying "Hi! My name is Linda and...."
i work about half time, selling my body and sole to corporate america. that is to say, i program (if you can call vb programming, ugh). i'm also a full time c.s. undergrad (on my second try with this whole "college" thing) at a school in new york city. so, by my calculations, i'm "doing stuff" 150% of the time, which is why i haven't been able to have a life in any meaningful respect in weeks (that is to say, i've been involuntarily clean and sober for longer than i'd like). also, i've neglected my second job, wherein i'm trying to make a web page for this dood i know (with very little cash involved). i do manage to post to ai every so often though.
Business analyst...I look at ways to improve / streamline business processes using IT. Mostly, it seems, I spend my time arguing with developers who regard specifications as a kind of vague guideline and carefully explaining things to users who could hire and fire me ten times over but never learned how to use email.
First Year Undergraduate in BA History at LSE in London.
I'm living off the money I earned last year (I've been a Weigh-bridge Attendant, a Waiter, a Kitchen Assistant, a Washer-Uper, a Sommelier, a Box Packer... and I've worked in Hospitals, a Nursery, Factories, an Industrial Kitchen (you should f**kin' see where/how they prepare hospital food!), a Quarry, Pubs, Restaurants...)
Don't know what I want to do with my life proper tho' \
I was an Adult Film producer for three years while in California, (about 7 years ago) I retired out of the business when I married, and moved to the Midwest for a more, let's say, tranquill life. I am now the CTO for a small advertising firm.
And really, there are only small differences between the two positions. :-)
