Wow Maggie.... Thanks for the pressure. LOL I am cursed with saying whatever comes to mind.

So here goes.


First, I am Hannah's Father. After that I am a "high tech redneck". I am part owner of a technology services company. We do general IT work for small business clients. The IT Department for companies to small to have their own.


Before this I was a Windows Server admin for the PA State Medicaid System. (Thus my 'love' for all things government health care.) I have also cooked in all manner of restaurants. From Perkins to fancy gourmet places. I also served in the US Army for 12 Years. 4 active years on my original stint. 8 in the Guard, one of them active for a deployment to Bosnia. Some people say they learned everything they needed to know in Kindergarten. I learned everything I needed to know in the Army.

There is 5 years of post-secondary education in there as well. All in history. Dunno what for.... Never used it to make money, just to win at Trivial Pursuit and to win debates.

My favorite job, by far, is being Hannah's Daddy.

How'd I do Maggie? LOL

All you told me was you were a computer geek! I said that doesn't pay the bills; you said, OK, I'm a "professional computer geek"! You did much better on this thread!

Okay, I think I am one of the few people on here who has never worked with animals (unless you count other humans ).

Current: I do research in health policy, looking at access and quality of care (particularly with prescription drugs). So yes, healthcare reform is the topic of many lunch discussions in our office.

Previous jobs:
Retail Pharmacist (working with too many sick people is not a good thing )
Worked for an insurance company (creating the list of prescriptions that your insurance plan will pay for)
Hospital Pharmacist
Pharmacy intern
Museum tour guide
tree planter
and yes I did a couple of tours as a waitress...

Haven't seen my job mentioned yet. I'm a dog groomer, or in technical terms, a "professional pet stylist" at Petco. Prior to that, I was a cashier at a grocery store and I also got paid to tutor elementary-aged kids at the elementary school I went to. Fun fun.

Right now, I'm working on getting my nursing assistant certification. Only a few more weeks!
