What is your occupation?

Post by Retromaster »

If this is spam, I'm sorry, go ahead and delete this as I can't tell anymore,
but here it is:
What is your occupation? Surely you've got to have SOME way to pay all those annoying bills...Are you an engineer? an astronaut? A GRAPHIC ARTIST (that's your cue ben...)?
Post about it Here V
If this is pollified, I think it may be a bit hard because there are so many jobs out there...
are you proud of your job? do you make thousands a month? DO YOU HAVE 8 CARS?
Go crazy.

I'm a bum living off $10/week allowance (kinda sucks, lunch costs $11.25/week) but I applied to Dierbergs and Walgreens. Hopefully I can get a job soon. After College I'm gonna be an electrical engineer and make big $$$ or something.

I am studying to become a petroleum engineer at the University of Texas so it is kinda hard to hold a job. But in between classes and video games I usually help other people with there homework and computers for cash. Also back home I work for an independent bookstore which I personally make sure the 20 year old computers do not die on them :lol:.

During summers I end up doing random jobs around the neighborhood like lawns, building fences, installing new windows to name a few.... man i need a real job this next summer. :roll:

Well, as of now I don't have a job, but I will be studying Electrical/Computer Engineering, as well as music composition (yes, such a wide variety :lol:) next year. Exactly where, I'm still unsure of (will know March-ish) but I know I wish to study those two things.

One of them (engineering, almost for sure) will be my job ;).
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

I've applied to a couple places, but nobody will have me (big surprise there :wink:), the local ratshack won't even let me apply 'cause I'm a minor, and neither will EB Games despite the fact that when I click the jobs link on their website, it takes me to the Gamestop jobs site and that says I only need to be 16YoA.

I'l probably wind up doing data entry/general tech support for my mum's art buisness later this year. It doesn't pay much since the gallery she's managing right now hasn't exactly sky-rocketted, but it's better than nothing.

I am a lifeguard, only work during the summer currently. The beach is a nice place to work for me.

I live off of free stuff, and the $20 I get every time my grandparents come to visit.

I'm hoping for a job before summer. But I'm not really looking, as there aren't many people hiring in my basement. That is where my girlfriend comes in. She looks in the real world for me, as I search my basement! :P

I'm pretty sure most of us want to become some sort of engineer. Electrical is the obvious choice as it's almost what we do here anyhow. Except making, instead of designing.

As for me, an engineer. I'm not sure what kind yet, most likely mechanical or something along those lines. I don't like electricity. If there's a problem in a circuit, you can't see it. If there's a problem in a mechanical arm, you CAN. Although that's not the engineer's concern...
