Yeah, I did stints in networking (firewalls mainly) and did some fun stuff implementing Storage Area Networks. Now I "facilitate" IT projects....ugh, meetings and an email jockey more like.
I cling to the hands-on stuff. It's not entirely "future proof" as more and more if this is outsourced, often to the other side of the world. Now I work for one of those at the receiving end of the outsourcing, and we do fairly well in our battle with the international giants - so far.

Anyway, I have no reason to complain. Which is why I don't quite feel at home in the Doom&Gloom section

That it is.
Sadly, with them on the left coast I don't watch the whole game, they end way past my bedtime.
Mrs Bob stayed up for the whole game night before last, it ended after 1 AM our time.

Good to see that somebody still knows what a "bit" is.
I sure do.

My sister lives in Texas and every time I go to visit I am struck by how similar Texas is to Canada. Very polite, courteous people the Texans
Probably because they are all packing heat.

An armed society is a polite society.
