After reading Rod's spyware post I saw a few techs replying. I'm a Technology Director at a Catholic High School. 5 Computer labs that the students use with an approx. total of 125 computers. Approximately 75 teacher laptops. Maybe another 25 office computers.


I think the teacher laptops get more messed up than the student computers, LOL.



How about the rest of you?
 
I am a Telecommunications Analyst. I handle about 40 Phone Systems, and about 150 different voice and data T-1's. I have networking experience as well from previous jobs. I have 10 years experience in the IT field

I'm a computer support tech. for a major heavy equipment rental company. I support locations from all over the US, Canada and Mexico.
 
While a Linguist by trade (now) I started programming in 83 on the Coleco Adam and actually made it my major in College, so I programmed until I came in the service in 96, focusing mostly on object (C, C++ and Visual) programs. I've done a few program jobs for the military and was supposed to be in the computer field until they decided I was more useful speaking human languages over computer ones. I still do basic network support and access programming for my office though...

Damn! I love Catholic School girls. Especially the 18 yr. old ones (17 in some states).

:sign:

Sorry, couldn't help myself.
 
Like the Red Hot Chili Peppers say..

Catholic, schoolgirls rule. Catholic schoolgirls rule!!!
 
an EE for the US Naval Observatory. I am currently working on a satellite-based carrier phase method of precision time and frequency dissemination. I have been busting my ass lately because I filed a patent submission with our layers based on my work for this project. I am very tired of the project though, since I have been doing it for the last 8 months. I want to wrap it up so I can move into my next project which is GPS related. The GPS was the basis of my master's thesis. I sent a copy to DaveWF (per request), but never heard back. I think he must have hated it :( . Just kidding, Dave :p .

So, not directly IT but of course there is a s***-load of overlap. I also have an MCSE (NT 4.0). :)
 
I'm a hands-on eCommerce Manager for a Semiconductor firm. I run their public facing sites with consists of 40+ servers, routers and firewalls. Designed and implemented the entire architecture and still keep my hands on all the day to day tasks. I've decided to get a few certifications as of late such as my CCNA and CCDA. I'm working on my CISSP right now and will hopefully I get that finished by the end of August. After that either my MCSE or I'll focus on my MBA or more security certs, not sure yet.

Cheers,

AJ
