What's your day job?

You know those sparkly mirror balls at discotheques?  I install those.  Work has been hard to come by lately.

 

Actually, I'm a software developer.  Our company specializes in database intensive web applications.  We also do e-commerce websites for businesses who have needs beyond off-the-rack solutions or who require deep integration with other software products and services.  I also have a lot of EDI and integration experience in the medical industry.  I've worked from a home office for nearly 20 years now.

How old is your daughter? Don't worry, you do get the time back eventually!

She is a beautiful 5 months old. Being a dad is great, even if I do miss losing myself in a simulated flight for a few hours every now and then. I will again soon I'm sure - maybe in time for P3d v 4.0!!!

I'm a Studio Director. Drive mixing desks, operate all the technical kit and do the technical production for the BBC's national news and sport radio station and World Service sport programmes. Occasionally I read the news as well.

 

Also freelance as a journalist/newsreader in commercial radio.

Writer and producer - working on my second screen play now.  Which works well for my flight sim hobby as I'm almost always flying while I'm writing.

 

In an earlier life, I was a Business Director in the hospitality field helping companies with training and development and marketing strategies.  Was always an avid simmer and I love sports games (Madden and The Show are still favs).  

 

I'm and Aquarian and I like long walks in the park in the fall.  :wink:

You mean FlexOptions or FlightJet? ;) Love the new paint jobs going on the CL-350's. New uniforms are a bit different though.

 

I was with flex before the merger. Its Flight options in all but name now. The new paint is nifty, changing color depending on viewing angle! The paint scheme is going fleet wide now.
