i am an experienced software designer and developer with 38 years of experience. I began programming Atari Basic Language on an Atari 800 in 1983.

I began coding C language in 1991 using Microsoft's quickC IDE for DOS..

when i was incarcerated in 1992 and 1993, i wrote code for a client while i was in jail... I wrote my code by hand and mailed it to him and he would type it in and it was PERFECT each and every time that i delivered..

The longest program that i wrote by hand while in jail was 43 1/2 legal pad pages long(double spaced).. it was a dos based flat file database manager that had full on screen editing. It allowed to CREATE a record, EDIT a record, SAVE a record, and DELETE a record, and SEARCH for a record.

I wrote that shit ALL BY HAND with no chance to compile and test it.

He paid me $50.00 per week while i was incarcerated, which was the most that you can spend at the commissary in jail, and he also promised to give me a $1,500.00 bonus on the day that i walk out of jail, and he did in fact pay me.

It was a wow surreal moment when i walked into his office and i saw that database manager program running in his computer room, and i had only seen it on paper and in my mind.. I actually cried a bit..

I dont tolerate a lot of crap out of weak ass bitches that wanna take shortcuts, so i am not a lot of fun to work with if that is your mentality and so i am probably going to decline your offer to help at saidit.

fwiw, i am a clinically diagnosed sociopath with a narcissistic antisocial personality disorder with a side order of intermittently explosiveness.

thank you kindly.

That was not my offer.

After 9/11 I can focus on other things and can share with you my ideas. They include MANY things to chose from, so perhaps you might find something to latch on to. Perhaps none. Meanwhile, poke around /s/Cassy and /s/PhoenixForum.

You've demonstrated some of this. Thanks for your candor. You still need to behave on SaidIt. I'd venture to safely say there are others on SaidIt like you too.
