A very interesting mix of folks here. Some sure have had varied careers. I got married and started working at a small GIS company 28 years ago right out of grad school. Still married to the same woman, and the 12 person company I joined so long about now has over 3000 people. My goal in life is to keep it simple - one wife and one job.

BA, then JD
Attorney, mostly defense. I will most certainly be doing something else in 10 years (after over 20 years of practicing).
If I had to drink, it would be red wine. Although an ex taught me all about beer and how to drink it, so a beer once in a while tastes good.

Man, I remember the year that EDS cat herding commercial was aired during the SuperBowl... Stupid! Especially if you've ever had to work with those lame-asses. They couldn't heard cats to a mouse convention even if they were serving catnip!

Recently promoted to manager of software development after my boss left. Pretty sure that I have risen to my level of incompetence.

Construction. Interior metal stud framing, suspended acoustical ceiling mechanic, drywall (all phases). Worked about 7 months last year. Make enough to live. Climbed more than anything. No college. Someone once told me that, "College teaches you how to think about things". I thought, "Sweet! Think of all of the money and time I saved. I already know how to think. For myself too. How about that?"

for a living, for that all important dollar which translates into a full tummy and the toys I need to play, I live & work in the heart of my playground. Unfortunatly, that means I have to share, so I do reservations and clean cabins, hoping to make our guest all too short stays as fun as possible so they won't stop thinking about being outside. Maybe they'll fight a little to save some of it.
I too am not a big fan of advanced western education. It seems to educate us to continue the uncontinuable machine. What a rat race!
