y is Software Quality Assurance. I have worked for Microsoft, IBM, Intel and a slew of smaller companies.
Military
I joined the Navy Reserves in 1984. I left in 1988 due to ideological concerns (I identified as an anarchist). After some eye opening experiences and after actually living life, I decided to rejoin in 2003 for reasons totally unrelated to the attacks of 11 September 2001. I drill in Portland, Oregon. My unit's gaining command is in Japan, so I travel there once a year in support of various Naval operations. I am currently stationed in Kuwait in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. I came back in October.
