Dundee, Scotland. Yeah, as I said before, I'm just after money. It's only going to be part time anyway, so it won't be that bad.

Yay for working a crappy job in a spectacular place where I get to meet dozens of gorgeous women, most of whom are from faraway lands, and a few of whom are easy and/or desperate and/or undiscerning enough that even I get a shot at them. Plus, warehouse work is good for me, and I want to take better advantage of the park and beer this time.
lynn, my comicing partner in crime does that too except at the grand canyon. last i talked to her about it though she was thinking about going to yellowstone next year too. she really liked all the foreign chicks as well...

I am a coffee whore, but at least it's not at Tim Horton's.

I am looking into doing an Animation program... I even had a meeting at a place today, and was all gung-ho for it, until I found out the 19month program costs 25,000 dollars @_@

Any schooling that makes me consider prostitution as a means for paying for it is too expensive.

Had one: Cashier for Hobby Lobby.

Seasonal temporary job. They offered to make it permanent, but not until after I realized it was a soul searing job and I'd be better off without it (they said I was gone, I realized I wanted to be gone, somebody else left, they said I could stay, I told them...

...something really out of character for me, actually. It involved lack of sunlight and probable retreval by a proctologist.)

Well, I'm a sophmore in high school, but I do minor jobs at a law firm. It pays well ^^. When it's time for college though I want to get a degree in maybe Buisness or Social Science and go to law school. :)

I'm a rocket scientist.

Well...satellite radiometric calibration physicist. But it's science, and there were rockets involved, so...I figure 'close enough'. And I love seeing people's reaction when I tell them that. :)

QA Lab tech at an oat mill, 12 hour weekend graveyard shifts yo!

I should find out this week if I got a job doing bioanalysis for phamaceutical trials (putting rat spleens in a blender and then analyzing the results). Cross you fingers for me!
I remember caring... It was nice.

My sister worked as a server on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon last summer. She's going back this spring. I've just asked her if she knew any lesbian comic girls named Lynn. Seems my sister knew her! Small world, eh?

If she does decide to take the YNP route, I'm hoping to be working in Mammoth Hot Springs again, in the warehouse, again. My name's Robert. She should look me up!

A friend of mine got a PhD in Philosophy! Her favorite philosopher was Kant. I'm a Voltaire man, myself. :) She's working in either law or lobbying, if I recall...

Went to college and earned a degree in computer science. Currently employed as a lab technician testing compounds for rubber boot soles.

So yeah, not quite where I expected to be at this point in my life. :roll: But with any luck, someday I'll get off my ass and go back to school for animation and/or game design and persue my life's dream. Hopefully before it's time for me to retire... :\

I work at a theatre too-- assistant manager. I also just quit a job recently as an ad manager for my university newspaper.

I'm in my senior year of my english/secondary education. Next year will be my student teaching semester at a highschool or middle school. I am... anxious.
