What's your skill

[IT contractor Ltd]

Hiya all,

I've been contracting now for about 8 months and been working in IT for 6 years. I'm no boffin and learning each and everyday. I use this website everyday to try and keep myself up to date. I've been reading the fourm, and become familiar with some of the people, although this is my first post. I was just wondering what aspect of IT you all worked in.

I work with As400's and Windows 2000/2003 servers, but was previously from a Windows XP helpdesk background. I've just had my contract extended for the 2nd time, which means I must be doing something right :rolleyes

Looking forward to your replies

Mostly obsolete languages like FORTRAN IV, FORTH, C and a wide assortment of assemblers for obsolete chips.

This explains why I fix fruit machines for a living.

(If you can define this as living. I calculated yesterday that in my last contract I paid myself more in mileage per week than I'm getting as salary at the moment).
