What is your profession?

I thought you are mini specialist ;-) .
I am IT specialist too. Focused on Java.

Another programmer here. I am doing C/C++/Java on one of the biggest "game" ever : http://www.cae.com/www2004/Products_and_Services/Simulation_Products/index7000.shtml

I am an astronomer, which basically entails sitting in front of a computer and doing programming too!

[quote="Aditu911"]There are a lot of programmers out there, but I'm not one of them.
I study civil engineering at the moment and next year I hopefully will have finished university and start working.

and looking at history of previous posts - you will become a programmer ;)

I studied economics, and 5 years ago had no idea about programming ...

and in details - I am doing data warehouses in oracle, working for HP

I am a civil engineer (and have absolutely nothing to do with programming)

I am a trainee accountant (not a programmer sorry!!!)

I am currently an IT specialist, and who you are?

'Currently' is a good word. I am currently BOTH a teacher and a student. From the next school/academic year I will, hopefully, be EITHER a teacher OR a student

this looks somehow strange to me
are you working on some scientific issue ?

Scientific issue? Why? I am a student of English (zaocznie) and a teacher of English. This year(hopefully) I'll get my MA degree and stop studying here I want to begin studying in the UK in September, then I'll be only a student or, if they don't want me at the uni, I'll just be a teacher

Great topic, Twoznia!

I'm a software developer.

Wow so many IT people!

I am a legal cashier and still work on a manual paper based system ( with carbon paper)

Next profession. I`m a lawyer.

Sorry about your mother's death. I am now taking care of my mother, but I still work 3 days a week at a health clinic. Congratulations on finding one of the most rewarding jobs in the world. The world needs more people like you.

Website designer.

Author.

Research and Development on UAV's.

Model.

Mother of 5. (My children keep multiplying on their own. They keep showing up on my door step. At least the stork brings babies. My newest is 17. I really need a bigger house.)

Jack of all trades. (I'm too tired to remember what else I do. I'm sure there's more)

I finally stopped teaching Hebrew not too long ago. Maybe a year ago?

Curious what I look like? I have dark purple hair with a platinum streak. Aside from that, puzzle
# 79289.

I am also a student. I study pharmacy.
Hopefully I will start working as a pharmacist during autumn when I've finished my project studies - which by the way is research on malaria and drug resistance.

Scientist. All about managing soil organic carbon for optimal use of water and fertilizers in agriculture.

I'm an Electrical Engineer, but work in IT installing/maintaining HP computers and storage(primarily unix based). Griddlers are my stress relief along with playing squash and walking our dog.

I work in IT

I started out as a Programmer - now I'm an IT Service Development Manager - managing people looking after ervers and networks and planning new infrastructure developments etc.

... and I'm a student: I'm studying Modern languages (German and English) with the Open University

Interesting to see so many IT people and engineers. I'm a pharmacist, mother of 2 (grown up) kids, do some part time lecturing, some government work on safe medication practices, and occasionally work in communiy pharmacies. I am married to an engineer/IT professional, but he doesn't like puzzles!

I am a dental office manager.

Retired - guess what - programmer (C from before C++ and even before ANSI C, Fortran, PDP-11 / Z80 transputer risk assembler, antic stuff). Made some games for MSX computers in the early '80's
I was working on a nonogram solver and generator when I discovered I was reïnventing a wheel. This site has everything I wanted to create and more.
Sometimes now I create / debug simple websites for friends (using notepad++ / javascript) and do some handywork as pseudo-electrician.
Oh, and I love kitesurfing, so I won't make that my profession

I've just finished being a student at Oxford in the UK (studying pure maths and spending summers interning as a programmer) and am leaving tomorrow to study for a PhD at Rutgers, New Jersey as a Fulbright scholar - only issue is that I've never even visited the States before :? To say I was nervous would be an understatement!

I started off rough. I was born in a back alley in downtown Los Angeles, never knew my parents. Reared by gang members, I created a drug smuggling empire by the mid-'80s. I went legit just before they tore up my network. During that time I finished my doctorate and invented a few cures for cancer, but the International Pharmacy Cartel shut down my research and put a price on my head. I became a shadow and roamed four continents for a decade, earning spare change as dock worker, plumber, neurosurgeon, investment analyst, sous-chef, astronomer, whatever paid the bills. Now after having acquired plastic surgery and a new identity I lounge away on my yacht with an entourage of like-minded Illuminati, but still with one eye on the open seas for those IPC thugs, several of whom so far have "vanished," and perhaps more to come.

Oh wait, I just remembered, that was someone else. I'm a software engineer too.

ROFLMAO...
I believed you until the "neurosurgeon", or was it two sentences before?

I am a Dutch midwife . I'm absolutely not technical, but nevertheless addicted to Griddlers.

I am a Registered Nurse. I have not created any published griddlers, but I love solving them!

OK, let's test your story...
Complete the following: Open, 1 & 3, 1 & 2, 1, open, 1 & 2, ?, ?

Sincerely,

mooseroo ; )

(the music teacher two replies up)

Hi

I am also in IT ....many roles, many platforms - mainframe to midrange to PC....many years....

My heart lies in the maintenance programmer role regardless of platform - fixing bugs and enhancing applications. It's just and extension of puzzle solving....

Also much devoted mum to two teenagers so time is limited, but I love escaping to griddlers when I can

Cheers

I'm a geographer by profesion. I now work as a cartographer (making maps)



Keep an open mind, but don't let your brains run off.

Haven't seen any posts recently so thought I'd start it up again. I'm a Project Manager for a large commercial construction firm.

And now for something completely different...

College Senior (AAHHH!), Classics.
Hah. Totally unrelated (well, almost).
