[also means nights away in hotels..[/QUOTE]

Sounds like heaven to me. That is the part of my job I love the most. When I get to travel and stay in different locations for the weekend and make more money I love it. I don't really like being home a lot though.

[AlanUK]

By job title my job is Analyst/Programmer but as I work in quite a small IT department I generally get involved in everything.

It's good for variety but a lot of the support stuff gets in the way of development which can be frustrating when I have tight deadlines.

My employer is very progressive though and we have excellent terms and conditions which is great

 

[Minniespal]

I work as a therapist in a private practice and also work with people with alcohol and substance abuse problems.
