What do you do for a living?

[Cali]

We've had loads in over the last month. They're a bit boring, but at least sitting through device demonstrations gets us off the phones for half an hour.

So that's why you guys never pick up, you're too busy playing with new devices!

God, I wish I had the luxury of taking inbound calls all day. I'm one of the lucky people who gets to spend eight hours a day phoning people to see if they want to buy new mobile, and 90% of the time being told to piss off.

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

And I think we're a bronze store. That means we're rubbish, doesn't it?

Erm... yes. Sorry.

I thought so. Told you no one likes us.

I work for a high-risk loan company. We make small loans and spend most of our days making attempts at collection on said loans.

...

Also for a little extra money, I operate the trash compactor for the township I live in.

I'm guessing these two jobs overlap when they don't pay up?

haha, you've just pegged the one thing i wish i could do sometimes...just kidding. or am i?

I work for Interstate Bakeries (Merita/Hostess). I have a degree in Criminal Justice, but it's useless.

These two are just perfect for a crime novel!

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.

That's it, I'm hiring you if I ever need a debt collecting.

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.

 

[Crusher Disciple]

I make our engineers' lives miserable.



Mostly by stealing their trash cans when they aren't looking.

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).

 

[cultcross]

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
Anyway, apologies for bumping the thread, I felt like being snarky and it didn't deserve it's own thread.
