Disney’s network is pretty big. Just to give you an idea, the back of house networks (what my team supports) consists of about 50 wireless controllers and probably about 50k APs. So overall there are 4 of us on my team. That doesn’t even include wireless in the parks for guest users. 😁

In Canada, the formal title is "barrister and solicitor", but easier just to say "lawyer."

Most of my practice is family law, which means I really appreciate the stability in my own home life! But our small firm in the suburbs is pretty much full service, though no one touches criminal or tax work.

Not a single one in finance field? Maybe they just don't bother to be on the forums....I guess that make sense. People related to tech field are more curious and appreciate mods, repairs, all the mechanics which makes the forum so valuable. Most of us finance folks just care for a good looking car. Obviously I'm slightly different

College Perfessure Poorfessor Professor -- yeah, that's it. In chemistry so I can't spell either. Not much money, but lots of time off to explore my favorite part of the world.

Whoo hoo! One time chemistry major here! Back when the periodic table had only 3 elements - air, water, dirt; fire not having been invented yet!

Me too, too...I would like to say it was easier with only 3 elements but the math was much harder:-)

Though I do wish I understood how to make money like the finance guys; I would have definitely owned more than just one Porsche in my life. (break out the tiny violins)
