Do you hate your job?

I hate my job because it sucks.

Pretty miserable, but I take it day by day.

Very funny.

My job is ok.
It's just a mere part time concession stand at a theatre.
Every so often, my Ass. Manager will usually bring in something to eat on slow nights (I.E. chili dogs) and sometimes we just sit around and talk about awesome shit, like D&D or Star Wars or something.
But, every so often, some little kid will throw up in a theatre and not tell anyone, so I'll have to clean it up. Or, we'll get rushed and I'll have to pop popcorn like a motherfucker. But, we do have some fine ass ladies working there, and the non-fine ladies are actually nice people, so I shouldn't complain.

Set shit up, leave it there while the event happens, die of boredom in the office, pick self up and break down event, repeat ad nauseum. That and the fact that I could never understand what the mostly foreign hotel staff was saying. My new job is at a post production house, doing VO's and audio for video Pro Tools editing. Fun. Hot chicks everywhere in Georgetown. Hot chicks in the ad agency upstairs. Good money. Mykozo happy.

I did this at Anne Arundel Community College for about a year. My girlfriend's dad is the director of media for the entire campus, so he gave me my own office and everything. I'd take off on the sidewalks in my little truck, plug in some AV wires bounce out for a couple hours and that was it. After I did that I became a "Media Duplication Specialist" which basically gave me this huge room of VCR's all linked together, I'd set a telecourse to tape and then I'd have nothing to do for 8 hours. Thank god they had NO internet policy back then so if I was actually IN my office (If I wasn't I was back at my place with my girlfriend, somewhere on campus seeing the scenery, or even sometimes the local mall) I would be on napster (TEH OLD!) Everquest (TEH REAL OLD!) or just IM'ng. Fuck those were good times.

Now I'm a teller at a credit union, I don't hate my job, the pay is good, and the people are nice.

That is more than most people at ANY age get for part time.

I feel like I'm stuck in hell. My back is getting sore again, I'm freezing half to death under 3 sweaters, my left hand might be getting carpal tunnel and my feet ache like a motherfucker. I already had plans set for today for having my place cleaned up after getting home so I can have it look neat when my dad shows up but I just don't have the energy to do that.

god, just kill me and get it over with.

I love my job.

Buy Kameo.

Just cause you said that I'm going to pirate it

Fuccccck. Youuuuu.

My commute is about an hour in total. It takes me 20 minutes just to get to the BART station and find parking (Almost a mile away mind you) and then I get to sit on the train for about 40 minutes. That's not bad at all (The train part), but coming back sure does suck. At least now I have a vague idea of what it's like to ride a train in Japan though.

I come from Livermore, so to come into SF Monday through Friday is a big trip, but it's worth it.

I'm a grad student gunning for a PhD in pure math. It's good fun, but most days are 12 hours of work. That is, there is always an assignment due, test to study for, lecture to write, homework to grade, student to talk to, office hours to attend, other peoples problems to solve, etc.

There are ALOT of good things about it though. First and foremost I am learning a fuck load, every night I go to bed smarter than when I woke up. And the satifaction of solving a really hard problem, then writing up a page long proof, then telling it to other people stressing out about the same problem and hearing the "Wow that's really pretty, how the fuck did you come up with that" is really awesome.

People here have good taste in most things as well. A professor shows classic movies in an auditorium every sunday and Iv'e become quite chummy with him, so I now have input in what we watch. It's really awsome to see things like Yojimbo and Rear Window on an actual movie screen.

So I'm mostly at a good place in life right now, except I am constantly exausted and never get enough sleep. The only real problem is lack of a Ganj connection.
