What IS my job? |
|||||||
At the time of writing my Job title is "Advertising Systems Manager";
in the near future that changes to "IT Support Spcialist" for no very good reason. What this means is that I spend the bulk of my time operating and maintaining the advertising systems for the company: pc using telesales people, Macintosh art and design, Un*x based pagination systems, image storage and printing. If everything is going well I sit by the phone waiting for people to ring in their problems. When things are not running so smoothly then it can be kaos korner. Work Related interests: Macintosh, Love 'em! I am also interested in colour reproduction for both newsprint and higher resolution applications. I have experimented with FM (stochastic) screening for near photographic reproduction and have written and presented training courses in colour theory and practice, scanning for repro, use of Adobe PhotoShop for colour manipulation and Quark Xpress for page design and make up. At some point I shall put up my CV for the curious |
