What do you actually do at your job?
Mostly in the financial services world. Some government. Prior to now most of the work has been with US investment banks, but recently (for obvious reasons), not.
It's mostly short development cycle projects. We get RFPs, we submit a proposal, we sign a contract, we hammer out the specs and requirements, then we develop it. It's pretty fast-paced, we churn through the projects pretty quickly. Mostly agile development practices.
Tech-wise, the company I work for specializes in Microsoft technologies (.NET 3.5 stack) but I'm known as the C++ guy, but I do both. With the investment banks over the past two years I've mostly done C++ on unix development, but lately it's been C# on Windows.
We don't do Macs."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Snore. What happened to your kid like wonder. When I was 5, I would want to be a firefighter or an astronaut or a ninja, not a boring software consultant. Grab life by the horns and do something that the 5 year old version of you would be happy with. In conclusion, I think cotton candy vendors have a wonderful job.

I'm over manufacturing production planning. Boards, card cages, cabling and racks.
I did the engineering prototype for Bush Sr.'s Air Force 1, a program called HPTS that was a long trailing wire antenna extended from a recon aircraft that was built to withstand nuclear fallout, and the King of Saudi Arabia's royal aircraft (SARA), complete with a throne that swivelled to always face Mecca and kept him in touch with his medical staff.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Firefighter? Give me a break. Those guys sit around jerking off all day and every now and then rescue a stupid cat from a stupid tree.
Astronaut? Take a good long look at the space shuttle. No thanks.
Ninja? Welcome to the 21st century. I'm a code ninja. We run the world, not the ninjas.
