Guess where I'm sitting?
I'm in the grounds of the old VW factory in Clayton, also formally occupied by Nissan, and now operated by Linfox.
I have lunch at the Kombi Cafe and I cross Kombi St to get to it. The
owners have two split bus models on the top of the shelves behind the coffee machines.

I'm Chief Technologist for a national IT security firm.
Basically, I do risk management. Although I have a serious technological bent and my propellor spins fast.

Good to see we have somthing in common Andrew.
I'm a risk manager as well. When I'm not pretending to be a teacher I'm employed to make sure people don't start throwing bullets
around willy nilly.
I didn't know VW had a factory in Oz.

Heh, "williy nilly", no wonder I repeated grade 2!

Bronze,
So you do physical or personal security? Not throwing bullets around doesn't sound as much fun as the other way around!
Risk management has its days, but it's a real treat doing the work I'm on at the moment!
Check out these pics from the State Library of Victoria image collection:

Scroll down until you see the set for the VW factory! :-)
