In the UK I'm the R&D manager for a software company specialising in development for mobile phone platforms (the hard stuff, not Java games and the like).

But it's all good old software engineering at heart...

There: A couple of things to keep me interested.

Here: Sit in the corner earning a reasonable salary, trying to do enough not to get bored, but not too much.

Then I had a bit of a career as a hit woman, bumping off minor irritating celebrities.
Now I'm here I'd like to tell you but then I'd have to kill you.
Didn't you have first class stereo vision?

In the UK I was a student studying Mining Engineering at CSM, now I'm an occupational trainee (according to my visa) in the mining industry working for a company that makes pretty much every piece of kit you could need in a mine from conveyors to LHD's to drill rigs.

You've obviously been listening to the Village People's version!

Or is it just wish fulfillment?

I work for a music publisher (not print but copyright rights) as a copyright assistant. It's an office job basically but I do have funny things happen like getting voicemails from Harry Enfield (last week) and e-mails from Nik Kershaw
