Brian worked at DEC as a Management Consultant (SWAS, later called EIS) from 1986 to 1995, when he retired with the ‘package’, and a Digital pension. He worked at DECpark, various locations in Basingstoke and in Newbury. Interests include holidays and travel, while still fit enough to enjoy them. Thinks of himself as a tech freak but his former colleagues would still disagree with this! |
