I maintain passive income from investment real estate, and live on my 65 foot cabin cruiser in Key West. I actively pursue interesting and challenging coding work. I am independently minded and creative. I understand that building a better mousetrap does not force the world to beat a path to ones door. Some one must also sell the mousetrap.

I respect sales and management as partners with creativity to success. A good fit between employer and employee results in benefits for both.

It is often difficult to accurately assess a coder's skill. To that end, I provide below, for your immediate on-line review, my own programmer's test and a sample of my work exemplifying exploitation of AJAX (utilizing javascript and PHP) to synch multiple devices via HTTP only.

Programmer's test - jerrywickey.com/test/Ptest.html

The test has four questions.

For the personnel executive who also codes, You can see the advantage and how to use this resource immediately.

For a non-coding personnel executive, such as the one who may be reading this, the time required for a prospective hire to complete the test is the best gauge of his or her ability. An excellent programmer breezes through in less than 15 minutes. If a prospective hire takes more than an hour, you don't want him, regardless of the quality of his answers.

Your firm is welcome to use this test. It does not utilize any server side resources, so simply copy the source code and use as you see fit.

Sample software - jerrywickey.com/synch

Synch up multiple devices by simply tapping the same color sequence on each device. This software exemplifies my capabilities in real time computing (RTC,) real time customer response and communication.

I do not have a Bachelor's degree. I dropped out of Purdue University in 1986 to take advantage of a time intensive real estate opportunity. The same one which provides my current passive income.

On college, I simply ran the numbers. College didn't add up and this opportunity did. I always run with the numbers, never against. It's a creative resolve.
