You wouldn't be a programmer would you <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mage.gif" alt="" />
Only part time. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/stupid.gif" alt="" />
Actually, not at all these days. Many years ago, in the very early days of PCs I made a living for a while as a "PC consultant" which involved stuff like writing simple programs in basic, and building various things using a software tool called Delta. But I haven't done it for ages.
Fun while it lasted though. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Nobody knew anything about them then, so I'd bamboozle them with a bit of computer-speak, and dash home with all their manuals. I'd put on the coffee and burn the midnight oil reading them, and then go back the next day and do whatever it was they wanted. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Are you a programmer Rat? I bet it's a zillion times more complex than in my day. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ouch.gif" alt="" />
