Thus far, we have learned where Don works
Paul

Thought I'd add some of my additional areas of expertise. Besides having worked in the Corporate Security field for Victoria's Secret (15 years), I am also retired military (Air Force 20 years - cop) and spent 7 years as a Deputy Sheriff (5 years reserve and 2 years full time). Somehow, I have managed to pretty much stay close to the same field for the past 35 years. Something I would not have imagined when I started out.

Don :grin:

I'm a retired middle school principal (32 years) and retired Army National Guard Colonel (26 years). Retirement allows me to do the things I love (work on my cars, travel and have fun with my grandkids), and I highly recommend it to everyone, especially the grandkids!

Great Thread!! :cool:

I'm an IT Technical Specialist for a major cosmetics company (ding-dong!!).
Have been designing and developing systems for the past 19 years. (Hopefully it will be a few more years - going through some major restructuring and job cuts right now.)Prior to that I worked as a network support person for IBM while in college.

I'm married, have a 3 year old daughter and another child due this summer.

I'm a hockey fan (my wife and I got engaged on the scoreboard at Madison Square Garden - Let's Go Rangers!), Football (Go GIANTS and Army), Baseball (Go Yanks and Mets) and a NASCAR Fan.

I also play some guitar, sing and used to be a DJ. Not much time for that stuff though these days. :rolleyes:
