    I used to agree with you, by after Interior's behavior last fall, I lost all respect for the profession.

    Anyway:
    I'm an IT professional, currently Java Development
    it would be better if I could work from "home"

    Currently in Federal Law Enforcement, but I will retire in just over 3 years and relocate to an undisclosed island in the Caribbean where I plan to become a pirate. I think I'll excel at that, I'm good with firearms, really like rum and had a parakeet as a kid which of course is like a smaller, mentally challenged version of a parrot...

    I'm an IT developer, been doing it for 20 years or so, tried career breaks to move my focus but still I am here, doing it with some degree of success.

    But, in my heart of hearts, I know I am a creative writer. And I know my subject. But I know I am not ready to write, right now.

    But when I am, brace yourselves. :)

    I'm a neuroscientist and I love my career. I also think it would be fun to write novels or make pretentious experimental films.
