Neil, I have a job (more inside)

Posted by: DTravel on Sep 18, 19:36 in response to Van_Thomas' post Attention Everyone (All Must Read): You're about to run...

And I'm doing 60-70 hours a week currently because of a huge workload.  Have been for three weeks and expect to be for several more weeks minimum.  I support the bankruptcy department of a large law firm.

Before that I was a computer programmer.  I set up, installed and provided tech support for the Computer-Aided Dispatch Systems used in Public Safety Answering Points.  Also know as 911 Centers.  I was one of the people 911 called for computer help.  Someday, if I decide I don't like you, I'll tell you what my day was like on September 11, 2001.  If I decide I really don't like you, I'll tell some of the things I learned reviewing the records of some of my clients in the days after that.

I've helped start a non-profit, one of the first in the country to start recycling electronics and computers so the toxic heavy metals in them wouldn't end up in land fills and get computers to schools, low-income households and other non-profits.

And my screen name comes from my real life friends and some of the things I've done with them.  I don't retreat behind it, I'm proud of it.  There is a long rich history behind it.

I've done a great deal in my life.  Enough to know you don't have a clue when you try to tell me to get one.

I don't think this dude realizes that THIS IS A GAME. {nm} arf Sep 19, 17:58

Some of you follow the philosophy: "It's better to be a fake somebody than a real nobody." {nm} Van_Thomas Sep 19, 18:30

That's enough, Van_Thomas! Apologize now, or the gloves come off. {nm} NeilSite Sep 19, 18:31

Does your tin-foil hat still stay on? {nm} Van_Thomas Sep 19, 18:32

Van_Thomas: Is your peg-leg loose? [nm} {nm} NeilSite Sep 19, 18:34

It's hilarious how he logs in and out of his 2 accounts back and forth to pretend he's having a conversation (about a minute apart) {nm} dubord.s Sep 29, 21:24

and here I was hoping that when you said "refraining from anymore Forums indefinitely" it was gonna last more than just a few weeks. {nm} dubord.s Sep 29, 21:31

(yawn) We've seen this act before. {nm} edzep -- Port Monkey! Sep 19, 19:09

"get a job" . . . says the guy who by his own account is living off unearned, inherited funds DTXbro Sep 19, 19:22

Also, where in HSX rules is the "All Must Read" clause (you all know how we are sticklers for rules at Delta House) [nm] DTXbro Sep 20, 07:51

What size hat do you wear? (RazorHawk is a tin-foil hat conspiracy theorist) {nm} Van_Thomas Sep 20, 10:01

I don't want any hsx merch {nm} johnyg Sep 20, 13:52

I do. Still kicking myself over not scoring a mug, that pen, or the other goodies that were offered {nm} DTXbro Sep 21, 15:16
