Got tired of hopping jobs after the paging industry sunk, so the self employment was a survival move. You know your heading for that age where no one will hire you. At least now I can move my company into whatever new technology comes along and not have to clean my desk.

Of course now I have to kiss everyone's azz, instead of just "the boss". But, I've got some great people working for me and hope that they eventually become business owners themselves. 30yr jobs in technology fields are practically non-existant anymore, the company you work for simply won't exist in a few years.

Not to mention I will never, ever, ever work for a large corporation again.

Ron - Yep, had my share of RF burns over the years. Keyed a radio into the center of my palm one time, skin turned white, and a chunk about the size of a small pea fell out two days later. Had a hole in my palm for about a month.
