Officially, my title is a string of semi-applicable adjectives, followed by "Software Engineer".
Unofficially, I use many different descriptions, depending on the audience:
- I sit in a small, fabric-covered box, type all day, my hands are soft, and have never done a day's work in my life, Mum
- I work with computers
- I work with web sites
- I'm a programmer
- I'm a software engineer
- I'm a (string of adjectives) software engineer
I never mention languages or operating systems. If they are that interested, I point them at a resume.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
