Default So what do you do??

So in here in conversations you hear snippets of what people do etc... So tell us all what do you do?

Whats your job? how do you fill in your day?

I am GIS Administrator for a power company, so I pretty much look at maps and details of poles and stuff all day.

I'm a waiter.

In fact, I'm off for a 10 hour shift this afternoon , and then 12 hours tomorrow.

We've got 280 having buffet lunch and dinner in a marquee. I might have to polish up my gumboots

You had the bbcode right

[ img] your image goes here [ /img]

but you can't link to images on your computer that way.

The images have to me hosted on the Internet.

e.g.

[ img]http://www.mysite.com/images/mypic.jpg[ /img]


If you can't upload the images to a web server, try attaching them instead.

That sounds like fun... the only person I get to boss around is the slug that lives around my desk!

(I do try to boss the other guys about but they are pretty stubborn!)
