Hello folks! I'm a new member here though I've visited a fair number of times in the past, usually looking for something specific. I figured I should join up and participate instead of just doing the "seagull forum visitor" thing. I'm an ex-IT guy with a background in, well, a lot of things. No specialities, though I've been a tech lead, a documenter, a QA guy, a business intelligence guy, a requirements analyst, a helpdesker and a ton of other stuff as well. I worked in IT for over a decade, including a large chunk of time at that huge networking company (you know the one). I've also worked in a variety of other jobs, including being a barman, fast food guy, trainer, cat psychologist, agony uncle, shelf stacker, shop assistant, full-time carer, editor and loads of other things. Since finishing in IT I've mostly been freelance writing (no, not spewing content for $2 a time) and have also tried my hand at a few other online things, including a recent attempt at niche sites. That's kinda meh at the moment (still learning what fits my style by trial and error - ouch, expensive), though there have been some awesome moments. Keep plugging away, I say. I frequently have too many ideas for projects and not enough time or money (or both) to implement them, which is really annoying. Right now, for example, I have half a dozen on the back-burner. Most of which will fail, of course, but it's all good experience! My username comes from the main site network I run, which is an adult thing (no, not porn) so I won't go blabbing the URL here in case all the 10-year-olds click it and get me arrested. Looking forward to meeting some new people and picking up some wisdom from those who know their posterior from their humerus! TIEro
