I have a computer science BSc and 20 years postgrad IT experience.

I am currently consulting in the financial services sector in the City of London - employed by a consultancy as a full time employee.

My present role is applications support and development. This is a kind of jack-of-all-trades role, with C++ as the main programming language, also shell scripting and some Perl. Although I'm not being hired to do Perl, I sometimes get to introduce it when it seems the right tool for the job.

In my spare time (which my employer doesn't own), I'm doing lots of Perl, as author of 10 CPAN modules, a developmer of OpenGuides, webmaster and web host, and much else. I also attend and speak at some Perl conferences and workshops, self funded.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
