Electronics Engineer by trade. Now an IT Admin managing a few thousand computers and and a couple of hundred networks... with the help of a small team :)
I'm running the Security show for a the only shopping Mega Mall in Papua New Guinea. Had enough of that game though and currently in the process of relocating to a Business Development Manager for a radio communications business in Mackay with a number of branches across Queensland. Looking forwards to actually getting weekends off and being able to go away and hit the tracks without fear of being shot at, chopped up by a crazed or drunken villager with a bush knife or being hit up for 'road tax' by the locals wherever I go.
At least you could professionally make rear drawers for your troll :-)Quote:

I started out as a soldier in the NZ Army then got an adult apprenticeship as a carpenter. After 9 years there, left the army and joined the NZ police. Was an "Advanced Combat Medic" on one of the spec squads and when I left after 14 years and moved to Oz, became a paramedic in WA. Work mainly with construction up in the mines.

Started out in stores and forklift driving. Went on to Laser profile cutter machine operating for the next 13 years. Now I'm a department manager in a mail house. For those that don't know what that is, is basically some of Australia's largest companies use us to send out their bank statements, centrelink letters, medicare cheques, Telstra bills and RTA toll notices. I send out 10 million letters....a month, and that is a slow month.
