I used to work with a rather well known Internet company in a sales position but I got fired about two hours ago when they gave my job to some gamer from Portland.

I get paid a ton of money to stare out of a window and be a professional back seat driver.

I know nobody cares, but I have to brag. Got it!

Congrats!

Ex-Sound Director on TV and in cinema. Ex-project manager.

Now I've started my own business half a year ago. My company makes design and installation of Home Theaters in dedicated rooms.

Well, I find being a boss for myself cool

Best Regards

I'm unenmployed

But my trade is a hybrid between network security and computer forensics.

So I have some nice unemployed time off for the upcoming slew of network security conventions, then after those are done in Vegas I will most definately need another job.

No, sorry. The thread you are referring to is from a Hoogheemraadschap. One of the regional and independent organisations for water management. I work for Rijkswaterstaat, a national organisation (helped out for instance in New Orleans after the floods). Some information you can find on www.rijkswaterstaat.nl. Happy hunting. Aniuk

Edit: It is nice to see how many different sort of jobs, generations and people are united in playing SH4.
