Default Re: What was your profession prior to retirement? This is really interesting.
Low-level, tax-devouring bureaucrat with the Department of the Army. Started out as a COBOL and FORTRAN programmer back in the brown shoe days. Ended up as a paper-pushing DC drone who had to get technical assistance from a prepubescent intern whenever my PC burped. 024 ::

On the plus side, I got to see a lot of great places and meet a lot of great people. Toujours Pret.
