Skills

For those who know me this is old news. I have been having to utilize all my computer skills since the change over from my old company to the main contractor on this job. The person who was doing this with me has not been hired back yet and I really miss his skills in a couple of areas. My biggest skill is my ability to research on the web and surprisingly I do have a lot of information in my brain (but Old cpu access is very slow). I guess my degree in web design is helping me out in this area. It is funny that I find that the best jobs I have had are where people have a variety of knowledge and skills beyond just computer programing and network security and it is those skills and the sharing of those skills that always seem to make the work more fun and the enviornment to work in fun. On another note the new company I work for has a new project in England, my wife said no but I still may go on a temp gig if they need my skills.

Geek Theme song by Weird Al

Get your program running
Head out to the center
Terminals are waiting
For the data that you'll enter

Everybody says that you're a nerd, but
They should know that you just don't care
Got your Hewlett-Packard on your belt and
Vaseline in your hair

Like a true mommy's child
You were born, born to be mild
When your batteries die
You're always gonna cry
Born to be mild

Pencils in your pocket
Patent leather briefcase
Studying your Fortran
You got pimples on your face

Gotta do your homework
Forget about the prom dance
They think that you're a big jerk
'Cause you wear a pair of flood pants

Every day you wake up
Your oscilloscope is humming
Parties tend to break up
When they find out that you're coming

Born to be mild
Born to be mild
---Al Yankovic
