Poll: What you do

Hmm, if you wanted this to be accurate, why did you include "porn star"? Besides, as someone else said, that would fit under "entertainment" anyway.

 

That wasnt an option, you cheater! (I would also be under HS student, and being more awesome than coolestkid...

 

Well, I used to be a jet-setting IT and e-business consultant travelling all over North America and Europe and feeling mighty important. That was until the high tech meltdown. Now I just sit in a stupid cubicle with co-workers half my age and less than half my experience.

Am I bitter ? **** yes.

Ok, I feel better now. I guess that would be "Other"

 

I know exactly how you feel

 

Yeah, it sucks. Not only am I working with a bunch of kids - none of whom have ever worked at a command prompt - but I don't travel a single bit.

My career has definitely taken several steps backward and I'm doing many of the same things I did 10 years ago. At least the director I report to is a good person with the qualities I respoect and the company has excellent benefits.

It's amazing how quickly things can turn. Just two months after I was leading an XML messaging group in Helsinki, I was starting from ground zero again in an completely new field using 1980s technology.. Now at least the job is ok and getting better, but the $$$ is way behind where I should be.

 

The death of the command prompt as a viable user interface is really a shame, IMO. I'm only 18, but I got hooked on computers in 1989. To this day I still prefer a command line interface over a graphical one for many tasks. Its just such a pain to use the command line in Win XP
