what are you thinking about for a career?

Well currently I'm majoring in computer engineering. So I'll pursue a career in that after I'm out of school.

I'm a programmer.
Mostly building web-applications for NGO's, government and non-profit.

I do the architecture as well as the actual programming from usability, database and security; the whole package.
Adept in every field but master of none, that's me. :toughninja:

Sadly i'm still unemployed even after 2 years of searching for a job going online, looking at want ads, and what not with no relief in sight. People are just pathetic anymore not willing to use 1 penny to possibly train someone wanting something for nothing. Still I keep myself busy by growing flowers, taking pictures as a professional hobbyist photographer, and making some digital inked works.

Like a Boss! This guy deals with like 4ft cockroaches everyday man, beats them into submission with a spoon. :P

As for me, I'm currently...well I don't know.

The boss said he didn't need me one weekend, then I came in the next and since then he hasn't really needed my help. So I guess I'm on an extended leave of absence without pay? He hasn't fired me yet though. :shrug: Self-owned Garden Centers tend to be seasonal work I guess.

I am seeing lots of people unemployed,it is hard to make a living nowadays :(


And yet, they all can afford the interwebs... :hehe: Hell, I got a full time job and I can barely afford it.

I was out doing my own thing for awhile, home improvements, service calls, etc. After the housing bubble burst, it became very cut-throat, and it became impossible to make money, seeing as someone was already there an hour before you under-cutting your quotes. I got sick of living hand to mouth so I started looking for full time employment, so now I'm currently selling hardware. Not a bad gig, easy work, climate controlled, and bennies... even get paid vaca. Not too bad in this economy. :shrug:

I work part time at UPS sorting boxes. Its a really good job. I get paid 11 dollars an hour, full and (almost) free benefits for me and anyone i claim as a dependent, I think around 6 paid option days, a week of paid vacation for every year i work there (up to 6 weeks), unreal job security since its probably the most unionized place anyone could ever work at, a career path to a 75000 dollar a year driving position, and its and its not too hard (my current position, i don't know about the driving one).

Father time was still known as junior, and still figuring out what a clock was for, while Buddha was on double rations, the skinny git.




also, the wheel was still in it's triangular prototype phase..

I pick my nose. If I fancy a slightly different track of career progression, I have a good scratch for a while. On really special days I yawn a lot too. I have a lot of special days.

I work at a bank doing Small Business Administration (SBA) lending. I like it because I get to see people build and create what wasn't there before. I sometimes visit the businesses and see all the people working there and all the customers they are serving and I get a good feeling knowing that I played a small part in that. The downside is the nearly 4000 pages of regulations that I have to know, which get rewritten every few years, but are written by people that don't really know what it is we actually do.

I actually walked away from a very good offer from a software company to keep doing my current job, I was more shocked by that than anyone.

I awoke to find myself in the past, suffering from partial amnesia and facing a mirror image that was not my own. Fortunately, contact with my own time was maintained through brain-wave transmissions with Al, the project observer, who appears in the form of a hologram, that only Shadow Stealer can see and hear. Trapped in the past, Shadow Stealer finds herself leaping from life to life, putting things right that once went wrong, and hoping each time that her next leap will be the leap home.


Nah, Unemployed :(
