I thought it might be interesting to find out what everyone does, especially as there are lots of new guys on here like myself. I'll start then...

I'm a web designer.

What do you do then?

Minion to the all-seeing and all-powerful BIG-Dewey!

I tremble in his shadow and conceed to his every whim (...er, I'm a web designer too!).

However, I do like to think of myself as something akin to the warrior-philosopher (...in my dreams...), a bit like the water monster Sandy from 'Monkey' (although I look a bit more like 'Pigsy')!

Er...You have no idea what I'm on about do you?

:whistle:

Booo !!! Get a professional in to do the job, its people like you that keep us on low paid wages. :P

Incidentally, i'm a fire, security and CCTV engineer. No doubt Mr. Vincentvega will follow this post claiming to be 'head engineer' but i'll tell you now thats rubbish. He's teaboy and part time at that. 8)
