Where do you work? And what do you do?

I stock shelves, on the night shift. same as arrowhead but i also stock in the mornings. it's ok except when you finish early. oh and when costumers ask you where something is, and it's like right infront of their face, but at least it's better than been a bagger i mean comoon who ask to double bag their bread ridicoulos i tells you

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I'm on an apprenticeship/course of sorts in catering. Most of it is me in the kitchen cooking stuff, but there's also a paperwork side of it. Considering how much I work (9:30-2:00 Mon & Wed, 9:30-12:00 Fri) I get a fair amount of money.

How ya doing, buddy?

I work in IT for my college.

Wooooo for the late night shift!

I was speaking idiomatically.

The Law and Justice Department called me today and said that I got the job.
I will be working for the CSI from July/August

:biggrin:

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I work for a financial consulting firm for dentists/orthodontists/endodontists/pediatric dentists/etc. - basically we provide financial services to any dental doctor.

I do lots of different things, but the main ones are paying the bills, maintaining and issuing reimbursements through our company's Cafeteria and MERP plans, processing payments from clients, making bank deposits, analyzing doctors' annual profit and loss statements, working in our newsletter subscription department (we have a newsletter written by my boss who is a CPA, MBA, JD and all sorts of other letters, with about 8,000 subscribers), answering phones when our receptionist is out to lunch, filing, and registering doctors for seminars.

I feel like I'm forgetting something, but I guess not.

Oh, and so far Roph has the coolest job.

EDIT: I forgot to say that I only work part-time, from 8:45 - 1:45, which allows me to be home before my kids get home from school in the afternoons.

FELIPE NO

I am a drone for a "risk management" company (whatever the fuck that entails). I mostly test computer applications that BAs and call center reps use to do work that someone or some company could very well do themselves.

The nice part is, they pay well, pay for my grad school, have neat benefits and the office is in the same town as my apartment.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I am a graveyard shift worker for Kroger - or a night grocery clerk and I do this sickness hellish job 55-70 hours a week, and it's a weekly paying job. Yea I'm one of those guys who fills the shelves up before you day shoppers begin your daily shopping routines.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Right now for side cash, I work as a stocker at a drug store putting up crap.

In the summer after this semester, I'll be (hopefully) working for Chevron at Port Fourchon and on some oil platforms in the Gulf of Mexico. ($$$)

Where I shall be hoping for many hurricanes and tropical distrubances so I don't have to work and I will still be paid. =D

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I applied at a bank at 14 and got the job soon after I turned 15. Now, I'm 16 and do alot of different things like scanning and waiting on customers. Can't give out any more information though. I'd have to kill ya. It's one of those CIA things....

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I work at a Deli. Roughly 20 hours a week. Rarely do I ever touch a slicer or help customers. I make my own sandwiches and clean and stock. That's my job.

I'm not in college yet, but as soon as I am, Ill rely on eBay for spending money and devote myself fulltime to college I think.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I work at a dollar store. I work 4 hours a week.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I'm starting a new job at Subway. It'll pay more than the stupid bakery I worked for.

This is somewhat late, but better than never (right?). Sorry, I really should pay better attention, so oops.

So anyways, I don't really like the term Software Engineer as it feels too fluffy for my liking, mostly because it's a generic term that can cover such a huge range of jobs within the computing industry. But people like labels so there you go. If you're looking to get into designing applications then that'll have to be a question you put to any potential employers, make sure the opportunities you are looking for are there. Don't be surprised if you have to start out as a bit of a code monkey, it's quite common in a number of companies. If you have any specific questions feel free to PM me.

I work in an asian restaurant by the name of SOBA Noodle & Rice as a prep cook. I stand around all day, making crab puffs, sorting noodles, and preparing vegetables. God, I can't wait until I move, where I can go to college and get a better job.

How ya doing, buddy?

Libarian. Although, I don't have any degree. Working in a library makes me a librarian automatically. As least thats what the patrons try to make me believe.

I'm just an office bitch.

And a poor college student.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Where: The Detroit Incinerator Plant.

Title: Heavy Equipment Operator

Description:

I operate bulldozers, front-end loaders and cranes...I basically push garbage.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I work at a Law firm and I'm a coder or a data entry clerk. Basically entering things into the database and get legal documents ready for a case. Pretty boring, but the pay is not bad.

I need a weekend job.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I'm a Systems Administrator at a University. That means that even though I maintain servers, network infrastructure etc... I also have to do the gimp jobs like installing operating systems, fitting DVD writers, telling 'tards how to copy and paste etc... Not boring though, and the pay and holidays are OK too.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I'm a waiter at Ruby Tuesday. I kiss peoples' asses and bring them food to bitch about to my boss because their bacon was on the side instead of crumbled on the baked potato. I'm basically a prostitute.

Who is your daddy, and what does he do? [/arnold]

I was speaking idiomatically.

i'm a research scientist at a medical center. basically spend like 8-12 hrs/day and pretty much half of the weekend at the lab, trying to get some publishable data. it's getting a bit frustrating these days since nothing works! argg!!!

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I work at blockbuster as a csr. I like it when i done have to work with the cranky old man (ass manager), Joe. I don't like weekends. I feel bad when we don't have anything to rent...
and if i hear someone ask one more time for chronicles of narnia.

I have to go in at 6.

FELIPE NO

I'm still a student, but I'm planning on getting a part time job as a chambermaid or something for a little while; I'm fed up of being short of cash. I'm also hoping to get some kind of voulenteer work at the local hospital (a sort of optional and late work experience) but that won't be paid.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I work in an elementary school basically taking care of kids... no complaints as they generally behave good

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'm working on a Bachelorship of Business Management and work part time in a bookstore, which is awesome. 30% off any books.

The downside is I'm the only one who knows anything about computers so I get dragooned into doing any kind of installation/maintenance/network problems. The work is fun as hell though so I don't mind. I will tell you my favourite story yet though.

The owner of the business is in no way computer literate, but thanks to the wonders of the internet she can now pay her bills over the internet. All well and good you say. So she calls me to the back of the shop to take a look at the computer because its not accepting her credit cards, I figure she's either entering the wrong number or she's in the wrong section for making payments.

But no. That would be too easy. Turns out that when she said that it wasn't excepting her cards she meant it literally. She had stuck a card into the floppy disk drive. Which promptly got eaten. So then she tried the CDROM drive. Same again except this time it was scratched. Not to be defeated she continued to insert credit cards through heating vents until the time that I got there, she had no less than 11 credit cards sticking out of the thing. The poor computer looked like a white cactus.

So yeah, interesting times to be had.

Most amazing jew boots

I have two jobs (sort of) one during the summer, and one during the school year.
During school I have work study in the Nature Library at MICA, except no one ever comes in to check things out and am often found weeping softly to myself out of sheer boredom.
Second job is back in my hometown, which is why I can only work summers, and I host and cashier at a local breakfast resteraunt. Its incredibly fast paced and stressful, but I love it dearly none the less.
