What does everyone do for a living?

[mitsuman]

Bored at work. So I'm wondering what every one else does for a job/career. How do you make those fat stacks?

Me, my actual title is Print Specialist. I buy printed materials, do some graphic design work, am getting into account management and pretty much any other thing that needs to be done. I work for a small agency and we are contracted to one large corporation. I actually have an office in that corporations building. I am hoping one day that corporation will offer me a job. As much as I hate the corporate world, I would rather have a job with them then with the agency I am at due to the unstableness of the agency.

I enjoy my job. I am really good at it. I like the challenges from time to time. I get to sit at a desk, listen to my music on my computer and close my office door. What more could I ask for? I get paid pretty decently for this area. And I get 5 weeks of vacation. Not a lot to complain about. 

So how about you all? What do you do to afford fantastic TG16 games?

Even though I'm talking shit in most threads, this time I'll try to remain serious.




I'm a pimp.




















Just kidding. I'm working in an engineering office and design facades for buildings. Lots of glass, steel and aluminium involved. Usually I sit at the desk using AutoCAD, but every now and then I'll pay our sites a visit and help the mechanics with the installation. Fun, fun, fun.

That sounds like it could be fairly interesting.

So you often get a case of the Mondays?

I kill lots of people. Sometimes I get paid for it.

Actually, I think I work for the same company as mitsuman with almost the same position. You might want to look at the contract, mine states that my customer company absolutely can not hire any of the contracted employees. They couldn't give me a job if they wanted to.

I travel a lot and talk about financial algorithms.  I know it sounds super exciting, but it's usually not.

This time of year I'm doing shit like this.



In the summer I'm fixing those air conditioner thingys.

I work in the abuse dept for a business ISP. Ironically, they use me more for graphic art stuff then they do for the job they actually hired me for.... But, I get to post here while at work so all is well

A couple years ago I talked to the person I would work under. She said the contract would not be an issue. And as for the contract on our side, there is nothing stopping me. The owner and my boss both have told me they keep expecting to get offered a job from our client company.

And you buy print too? What area of the U.S. are you in? Just wondering if we use the same printers.  LOL
