So much IT.... ?
No wonder you guys can all lurk around the forum all day ?
Make no mistake, I'm still gonna get into mega kak for spending too much time on here. IT guys know that everything is logged, but we still take that hit.
IT is a bloody kak job sector, somehow knowing something about computers makes you special, and you have to fill in timesheets.
When's the last time you saw an accountant fill in a timesheet?

well since GFSA is apparently ITGFSA you may account for time spent here as "networking/seminar" or "R&D"

Well, it used to be playing music and writing (both for whoever would pay me, on a freelance basis), but now it's mainly writing - I'm employed by a newspaper. I'm happy to be experiencing some stability for a change...though of course I'm liable to sabotage that at some point.

I spend my morning playing games, getting cuddles and playing guitar, then I come home at one and do whatever I want! Ha ha I have the best life in the world!

Wow, there sure is a lot of IT, SLM, SLA, ITIL, MBA, SME, CIMA or whatever other TLA's here on GFSA. My head hurts.

This one is not in IT, though I can spell it.
I am an accountant now but when I grow up I am going to be a rock star.

I'm in IT tooo........ ?
Here's what Homer Simpson's dad has to say about IT :-
“I USED TO BE WITH IT, THEN THEY CHANGED WHAT IT WAS.
NOW WHAT WAS IT ISN'T IT, AND WHAT IS IT IS WEIRD AND SCARY TO ME.
IT'LL HAPPEN TO YOU TOO.”

whats a day job??? never had one. been a pro muso since i finished music school so i guess performing /teaching/composing music is my day job ....... i've never had to do anything else not even one day behind a bar or waiting tables...... i have a guardian angel looking out for me career wise, or as my irish friend says it's not an angel that brought me such a charmed musical career so far but just the devil looking after his own.........

Mmm...seems to be a lot of logical, left-sided brain power on the forum: Programmers, coders, managers, legal et al.
My left side is fairly non-existent unfortunately...I'm all right brain inclined.
Spend most of my time making things look pretty.
(well I hope they look prettier after I'm done with 'em :-\ )
I'm a freelance Art Director.
Do mainly graphic design, illustration and photography. With bits of digital sprinkled on the side.

Wow, lots of diversity here.
I'm amazed at all the different walks of life on here and yet the common love we all have of a piece of wood with six metal strings on it ?
I'll throw a p90 amongst the humbuckers;
I'm a maxillofacial surgeon in training.
Got a few years left to go though, playing guitar keeps me sane sometimes when things get very hectic at work..

Well, I know just how hectic the "hanging with teenagers" can be for pastors, frankly I think you're probably not paid enough ? ?
