My blog

Decided I would post my rants, ideas, etc. in a blog.  It will be mostly about developers/developing/programming/design/etc.  Thats what I do for a living.  Its not a hobby of mine anymore, its just a job and something I enjoyment.

I am currently a Java programmer and have been for the last 10 or so years.  The only Java class I took I dropped out of because the computers were all screwed up and no one in the class could even get a Java applet to work on them.  The way I started into Java programming is actually a fluke.  I started out as a Equipment Technician working on multi-million dollar machines that builds computer chips.  We had a problem with tracking and monitoring the chemicals in the machines and I bid to create a system against another vendor(Air Liquide).  Well they decided to go in house with me.  So I had a system to design and didnt know Java, nor databases, and all my schooling was pretty much in electronics.  Thats how I started programming in Java, designing databases, and developing tracking systems.  10 years later I am still in the field.
