IT, left handed.

IT is so broad, I'd better narrow it down. Background in small computer systems for garages, moved into enterprise network management, now working for a consulting company in LANs, WANs and the like, and starting the move to the security side looking to end up as CISSP in 4 years.

I used to be right-handed and deliver IS/IT solutions.

I now consider myself ambidextrous, because unlike the PMs who delivered the new Notam website, my left hand knows what my right hand is doing

Is there a prize for the longest list of professions / jobs? If so, I might have a go, and I'm still only 34 years old (in hexadecimal) !
