I always wanted to be a Professional Whistler.

I work as a mechanical contractor for a very large international company who's clients include ones that have designed, produced, operated, and/or maintained some of the machines that make those wooden sticks that come with corn dogs. :)

Know this isn't totally suitable for this thread, apologies if I'm bending it a bit, but, watching celebrity juice this week, I notice Louis Walsh has a n900 :)

I used to be the guy whos job it was to walk behind the report who was doing the outside broadcast but I got promotion to an inside job.

Now I am the guy who spreads the papers over the newsreaders desk so that at the end of the bulletin they can pick them up and tap them on the desk to make them into a nice neat pile. But this is now coming to an end as I am being replaced by a teleprompter.

I used to be the guy who put the holes in the middle of ring donuts.

I'm now retired, but for twenty years I was a truck driver and If I had had an n900 then, my life would have been soooo much easier.

None of them as open source as the n900, the reason why open source is right, is the same reason why slavery is wrong.

I'm a contractor working for IBM, doing helpdesk technical support level 1.5 (Yes... I am between Level 1 and Level 2...). The N900 is what keeps me from doing of boredom :) lol

I use my N900 to keep in touch with them all, for email and as a calendar reminder for meetings etc

What's your job?
 
Dunno if this has been asked already, I couldn't find a thread.

Was wondering what you Maemo guys do outside of maemo.org. Not hobby wise, I mean, are you a student? Maybe you work - what kind of work? Maybe you're both...or you're a stay at home person ...or whatever...

I'll start. I am a student, (putting off revision by going on this forum and starting nonsense threads :rolleyes:)
