I remember this bar I used to hang at maybe '91 or so, used to have the local bikers there (the group that had the guy who beat up Van Damme in that strip bar) and the roughest looking guy was this guy called "Gator". Played pool with him a few times. Huge guy, tattoos up the ying yang, looks like he ate nails for breakfast. So one time I ask him, "What do you do?"
"I work for IBM."
"Huh?"
"Yeah, I'm a programmer. Basic, Cobol, that shit..mostly mainframe stuff."
"You can go to work like that?"
"It's just me in a room with myself and a terminal all day. And I'm the best motherfucker they got doing it."
"How about that."
