I hope all this is on your resume.

You're the sort of person I like to mention when folk come up with half-assed "encryption" schemes. The kind of person who reads hex for fun.

Haha. Funny enough, when I was a sophomore in college, I applied to Nortel for a C++ job. During my interviews, I told them these stories. It was one of those cases where you feel like you're the object of a show-and-tell, or something. My interviewer kept walking me around to all of his friends, having me tell them these stories. Everyone seemed so interested. Needless to say, I ended up getting the job. It was a cool job. I got to help code Nortel's 4G wireless data service, doing low level network protocol stuff. That is, until they went bankrupt.
