Hi All,
As the title says I am wasting time sitting on a train waiting for an interview. Had one yesterday which was not too bad.☺I hope this train moves soon!

I'd rather hope you're not wasting time.

You might get fined for being on the train. Might be better to take a seat inside it.
Good luck

First of all, good luck with the interview!
Secondly, I have to ask (being the nosey so-and-so that I am  ) how come you move between jobs on a regular basis? Just wondering, as I see your posts coming up so much about going to interviews, starting a new job, etc..
Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

It's because he never gets off the train.

What sort of stuff do you do? C#, ASP.NET? Where are you based?

A mate of mine works in FPGA development but has found it hard from time to time to stay in work. Another mate is the same but in the games industry.
I work as a contractor in enterprise ASP.NET development (with some mobile plus SQL Server/Oracle thrown in for fun(!)) - luckily there seems to be a constant stream of work in that sector (especially around London/Milton Keynes/Oxford/Cambridge areas), so much so that at least half of the developers I work with (in various contracts) are often brought in from abroad.

FPGA are the devils work, burn the heretic! Nah, but they are awkward to work on as pretty much every manufacture has there own way of 'doing it' you can have Altera (which I have worked on) that gets used in video systems or TI's which get used in data collection and find someone who has used one tries to use it an area where it hasn't really been used before (Some genius contractor used a TI device in a video system) and while it works on paper it's not ideal. So alot of the contracts in this area tend to be with companies that have solution A and are trying to use it for problem B and don't like being told "it's not really feasable, with out a lot of work"...I want to work at the development side of things and not have to deal with the whole we have X we want it to do Y, I want to build X...
