Well I'm an older guy, come from a truck driving background but reskilled a few yrs ago as a programmer, much easier on the back. Looking forward to listening to and learning from you guys.

Cheers :)

Hey there. I used to drive a fork lift, then went to varsity, then did policy work in the government, fixed a LAN problem one day which turned out to be the slippery slope into IT and networking (and I'm a newbie to the forum as well). I'll probably be looking to learn from you!

welcome...
