    Aha, so you're one of the people about 50% of the people who come into my shop moan about! :lol:

    I thought so. Told you no one likes us. :(

    We could call it "Red Velvet."

    With a dead senator in one hand, and a bloody crepe in the other, the chase for the killer is on.

    Rune, don't you fancy trying out for CO19? running around with a G36 popping caps in innocent South American electricians?

    I'm managing editor for a well known online computer hardware review publication. I manage a group of guys in my department specializing in video cards and gaming, schedule hardware and our reviews, edit their evaluations, do my own evaluations, writing, testing, product launches, attend press briefings, all sorts of hardware geeky stuff. I work out of a home office full time.

    Probably. I don't get paid enough to care if they moan though. Screw 'em.

    I work in the GIS (Geographic Information Systems) field. It's long and complicated what I do, exactly, so I usually just tell people I make maps.

    For a living? Nothing really. I'm unemployed and actively seeking employment. I'm normally a student. What I will do for a living is something in ministry (most likely a pastor).

    Well, turns out I spoke too soon. I should probably have realised that 'confirmed place' doesn't mean what it means to other people within the public sector and especially within the Police. Suffice to say I will be remaining a volunteer PC for the foreseeable future; luckily I had another post lined up in Criminal Intelligence, again with the Force. Assuming that doesn't screw up too, I should start soon. I get to be Chloe O'Brian :lol:
    Anyway, apologies for bumping the thread, I felt like being snarky and it didn't deserve it's own thread. :D
