I do technical support. Officially, Editorial Systems. More practically, I'm a professional geek.
I work at one of the largest English newspapers in the world - The Mail on Sunday. That's the Sunday edition of the Daily Mail. These papers, despite my own political views, are a bit right wing so liberals might want to stay away (unless you want to keep an open mind, or fancy learning about the Royal Family!).
I'm not deadly sure but I'm pretty sure that the circulation is in excess of most, if not all, of the US newspapers.
In recent years, I've become acquainted with a number of programs including Quark, various Adobe products, Lotus Notes, the Office suite, and I've got to know the Macintosh operating system better than I really should admit to.
In terms of the online media, I like reading BBC News, the Guardian, the New York Times, the New Zealand Herald, and the Washington Post. But like most people my age, I like to get a healthy dose of the news from The Daily Show.
Online logs (weblogs or "blogs") are also good at pointing out the news, correcting it, or even reporting it when the conglomerates don't and are increasingly keeping the mainstream media on their toes. I find Metafilter and Fark are 2 good examples. Blogs can range from dead boring to hilarious though.
In past work lives, back in New Zealand, I've worked at the ANZ Bank and at Sky Television - in both cases doing numbers work.
Do not ever expect loyalty from a bank. They're there to make money and the longer you're with a bank, the more they realise they can get away with. Read those junky brochures when you're waiting in the queues as there's probably a better product for you and it may even be at your own bank. Read those consumer group surveys too.
Goodness knows where I'll end up?
