Variable names help you to work out what a program does.
Indirect indexed addressing using a memory address wouldnt return what you think it would so variables in assembler are more than useful.

Yeah i know the situation for me those were the good old days now I am forced to work with idiot managers with degrees in sociology and business management but havent a clue with the difference between a Nas and a San.

Yeah idiots you work with I know the feeling only too well!

I also build custom computers on the side and kit cars!
I should have become a car mechanic , plumber or leccie there is no money in IT now unless you are a developer , business management consultant, consultant or other esoteric paper shuffling job!

I am currently a member of the great unwashed after telling my last boss to go f*** himself - something ive always wanted to do but most people dont have the balls to - but now suffering for it - still i did what i had to and im happy with it - Do a bit of security work now and again but to be honest I dont really want to work in IT anymore - might not have a regular job but im enjoying early retirement!

Besides the muslim apocalypse is upon us - wont be long before Meggido erupts and we will all be retired anyway!
lol

LOL Well, mine is not an early retirement, I just retired this year at 71. Ever since I turned 65 it had become a yearly routine on my birthday, I would tell my Boss I was retiring, he would go into nervous riggers, give me a raise and an extra week of vacation and I would stay for another year. This time I stuck to my guns and I?m out of there? :)

At my age everything either dries up or leaks and I have so many stints that I trigger the metal detector at the airport. So when I think it's about time for a check up I just book a flight to go see my daughter and grand kids..

Most managers are idiots. Actually they are smart enough but how they think. Their job is just to survive not to accomplish anything real. You can do anything if you have a proper patsy. Managers love young fools and hate old timers that know how to cover their ass.

That is why there is so much malware. The white hats are managed by managers that just want to maintain status quo while the hackers are lead by the smartest one in the pack. The black hats are getting the upper hand for most of the population. Only persons that keep up with what is going on can still stay one step ahead.

LOL after retiring, I usually get 2 or 3 calls a day with dumb questions from either the General Manager or the IT dept. I'm thinking about installing a 1-900-get-help line and charging by the minute....... :)

a friend of mine who was somewhat forcibly retired at 65 as a mechanical engineer was asked to come back but was on his conditions which included about double his normal pay per hr plus travel time to work or job site. he was the only 1 in the company who had his gas tech licence. he did a burner for a drying booth for an automotive company that had an output of 23 million btus.

Well done old yin im only 40 and past it even though im CCNA , CNA , MCP etc etc etc and doing my VCP 5 will hopefully guarantee me a new job but im a job hopper as the recruitment agencies call it - never stayed in a job for more than 3 years - lots of contracting juicy - good old days at £60 per hour and double time at the weekend for cobol year 2000 reprogramming work but over 40 AND a job hopper is not good - past cathing up to me now - ah well its better than having worked 40 years for the same company in the same boring farty old job for the same management incompetents and a gold clock and a bog off at the end of it imho

You sound like you are doing well!
Hope im still going at 71 but it looks like we are going to war with syria so the end is nigh!
>;o)

As for the 1-900 line - well thought out but youve been beaten to it¬!
Im Edinburgh scotland i see you are in Usa - easier to get work there in scotland its not so easy now -= england ok as long as you can put up with living in hell on earth (LONDON) - Managed 2 weeks and had to come home - its the worst place on earth!

Have you not seen this i am thinking seriously about it
EASY MONEY and Brilliant!

LOL, I might have you beat, I travel every once in a while to England, have family there, you should see the fiasco when I travel, both of my hips are replaced, with 4 revisions by the way, both shoulders, knees and one elbow have been worked on.

Once on a layover in Detroit it was a crazy day, they were stopping and searching everybody,they took all of us to what looked like an underground walkway, lined all of us against the wall, searched all of us, we flew in from Amsterdam (oh gee I wonder why)I told them about all the metal in me, they took me to another area with a huge room that had a big cylinder in it, it was like the beam me up Scotty thing, they said they needed to scan me, well I got scanned, after all that wait I missed my flight home to Philly, was I pissed, they did catch some kids with some pot, the dogs sniffed them out, that was pretty much it, no terrorists were found and no explosives, I did fell bad for the kids.

And as far as a colonoscopy lol,(I loved your sig) everybody was so wound up tight for a moment there I though I was gonna get one.
