All these thoughts look quite familiar. I made a career change to IT about seven years ago. I had already gone back to school to obtain a degree in CS when my company hired me as a prgrammer before I finished the degree. During the few years I programmed I often could not wait to get to work...

I recognize many names here from the HS board, no doubt many of you will recognize mine too. Last time I popped by here was quite some time ago, it sure seems busier now. Lots of great info here, rather than lurk I thought it was about time to finally register. Anyway, look forward to chatting...
