Posts: 44I’m in IT, doing development and support work for the system that sits behind 40% of ATMs and 25% of EFTPOS devices in NZ. It’s a specialised job, which means I’m in a constant state of mutually-assured destruction with my employer. I’ve been doing it for over 20 years now, so once it’s finally outsourced to a room full of 12yo kids in India I plan on moving into cropping for a change of pace.
It’s a job I kind of fell into while deciding what I wanted to study at uni, as a kid I had great plans of being either World Rally Champion, a muppeteer, or a manwhore to supermodels.

Posts: 18You know all those self serve touch screen terminals you all use at Coles/Woolies, thats right the ones that tell you to put your items in the bagging area 20 times before cracking the shits and giving up…….yeah, I build, install and maintain very similar systems in the hospitality industry, and yes, they piss even us off sometimes too.
I wanted in school to work with machines/hands on work. I would love to move over to a trade/hands on work if I ever got the opportunity. (I used to be a telco/data cabler).
