You're not already 32; you're only 32. You've got another 30 to 40 years of productive career ahead of you. I'll bet you'll be surprised, in 30 or 40 years, just how much your resume did grow since you were 32.

Geez, I haven't had too many. I guess I can stretch it out if I name some different things in the same field..

Chronologically, they are:

-- Working in a gas station
-- Mechanic in a bowling alley
-- Doing one-on-one computer training, then teaching classes in a classroom
-- Mainframe computer programmer
-- "Midrange" computer programmer
-- "Midrange" Database Administrator
