A project manager who still enjoys firing up a code editor.
By day I'm a mild-mannered project manager at a software company in Tampa, Florida.
By night, I do a lot of work on Zen Cart, and help moderate the Zen Cart forum.

Working on someone else's code +1. Resist the temptation to rewrite blocks you don't understand - you will almost certainly introduce new bugs doing this. Instead, move slowly and methodically through the code, only making changes where new functionality (or bug fixes) are actually required. |

Working on someone else's code Be happy. You are developing a critical skill that will differentiate you from people with less experience or academic-only experience. It's supposed to be hard. That's why it's valuable. |
