Does anyone else detest their job like I do mine?

If so then let me know, maybe we can laugh at our burdens.

I have school...

Well enjoy it while it lasts.

i'm still in school and already I hate it!what will I do once i will get job?

I actually enjoy my job... Is that bad????

@toxik

Depends what you like to do.
I go to the bar a lot.

Course not, as long as "the job is a part of your life" and not "your life is part of the job"

What is your job if you don't mind me asking?

Vinny, could you please try and use the edit button more often? Clicking 'edit' doesn't take any more time than clicking 'add reply', trust me...;)

I'm still at university, and I quite like it, actually.

I love my job!

I made my hobby to my job and now I needed a new hobby - that brought me here ...

:w00t:

I second all of that, with a bit of car insurance call centre-ing thrown in - 's ok, they pay well and I can sit inside, although that's less appealing when the air con/heating never works.

I hate my "job". Tommorow is Saturday but i have to go to school because the school got flodded tuesday and we need to recover the lessons. *meep*

Working at a call-center is the Ultimate Evil, brrr :ph34r:

I used to work at a one hour photo service, that's kinda fun. But nowadays I'm having a full job working at myself, which is both good and bad (pays 0, unfortunately :P).

the worst job I ever made was for a textile factory. I did it for some money while having holidays.

two weeks sitting in those tubes for the air condition and cleaning them. I have never ever seem soooo much dust and spiders and bees and flys and whhhhahhahahahahaaaaaaa all my life ... but they payed very well ...

What century do YOU live in? We got rid of that stuff here like.. 200 years ago..

call centers can get pretty downer but compared to a lot of the jobs out there its ok.
i have to call people up and ask them questions about stuff. its like telesales minus the sales part. can be a bit grinding because its not nice annoying people by calling them at the wrong times, like when they have had a death in the family or somming.
a lot easier than selling windows though..or really hot kitchens, factorys,
i know people who have spent years killing animalls. i think that is maybe one of the worst out there.
maybe.

@danny
i know some industrial cleaners man that is hard and they have to deal with stuff that exists in any century i:e dirt, that lovely offshoot of a lot of industrial processes, and belive it or not there are still some small places in this country where they actually make things. we cant all work in offices......

Yup. Killed chickens for two weeks. It sucked.

I kinda like my current job, it's shift work and I have to work weekends sometimes but it's kinda relaxed and nice :)

Pays muck tho :ranting:

Oooh.. Censorship ;)

Well, my job has some downsides, but I guess every job does. Apart from that I'm really happy with my job.

Teaching kids can be nerve-wrecking sometimes, but there are so many great things (just this week one of the classes welcomed me with a blackboard full of smiles :D :ok: :) :P ^_^ . That was really sweet.

And I love the hours I have this school year (I start at 7 on Mondays and Wednesdays - chess club; Othewise I start at 8 and finish at 12:20 - except on Fridays when I finish at 11:30). And the school is just a 10 minuts walk away - so HELL YEAH, if I wouldn't like it this year, there's no job I'd like.
The kids are well behaved (at leat well enough) and the other teachers at school are interesting, so I got to meet interesting people and have a lot to talk about. I'm just starting to work on a script for a movie we'll be making...
Life is good! :ok: :Brain: B) :king: :guitar:

I'm a senior masters undergraduate in engineering. Hopefully I'll be ready to do my thesis next autumn. I've applied for one at Ericsson. The task is to create a realtime code generator for various radio bases. I hope I get it :D

You gotta be good.back in elementary school,we drew many things on the blackboard,but nothing like smileys... :D :angel:

Oddly, even though most people say they hate them, Geography and French are the 2 most silent lessons I have. Barely anyone speaks.. :P
Meanwhile, in maths, our teacher can't shut us up. She stops for 2 milliseconds and we talk :P

My job is bad...

But is MY. I am very good. I work to take my cash (That´s so bad).

Unhappy I need this work to pay my bills..

Forget your job and let´s go to the weekend. :cheers:

:bye: Farewell!!

Now that's the best suggestion I heard in a while. Let's start the weekend:

:Brain: :bannana: :band: :beer: :cheers: :party: :kiss: :drunk: :boxing: LOL :guitar: :beer: :drool: :sick: :yawn: :zzzzz:

LE WEEK-END!
Was?
wasss?

I already started my job a bit I do websites for people usually free but if you offer to pay hehe. One lady even payed me ten american dollars a hour for her site. If you arent farmilar with american cash thats pretty damn good for a kid. Also Im getting some really good but cheap computers so I can start a video game dedicated server buisness for shoutcasts and other certain items of interest. Its fun because I am able to do what I like and there isnt much work to it

I wake up at 6am, to walk 30 minutes downtown to a pickup point. I arrive at the construction site and start working at 8 am and finish at 7pm. Like it isn't enough to be lifting heavy things all day, I still have a mental discharge from the boss who's constantly screaming at the thing we don't do wrong. :ranting: I'm then left at the dropping point at around 8pm (that it's the same as the pickup), from where I have to walk back home (about 1 hour, it's harder to climb :blink: ). After arriving home after 9pm, I still have to take a bath, cook, eat dinner, get the stuff ready for the next day, as meals and cloth. I go to bed at around 00:30. And I'm again waking up at 6am to work in a saturday... :tai: If the hard work doesn't kill me, I'm sure the lack of sleep will.


On the other side... It made me appreciate sundays like never before.

Well I go to school. (MEH... it aint so bad)

Coach kids tennis during the holidays. (LOVE)

Work at a super market during the week and week end. (HATE)

so yeah Im pretty busy...yet fairly rich!! :max: :ok: :sneaky:

This post should belong to the Joke Thread. It's hilarious. LOL

I'm glad to be still at school, gonna miss it! But perhaps I will return on the other side of the classroom! eheheheh At the moment I just deliver newspapers 5 hours the week, stupid work, but well-paid.

I'm in school...its ok.

Construction workers in our country have it really tough, especially if they're illegal imigrants. It's a slave's life... :not_ok:
I'm still at college, but job perspectives could be better.

Bloody cycles. :(

Well, just take the bus, then.:P

I thought you were male ! :sneaky:

I thought the bad jokes were over. <_<

Of course not ! They are never over. What would you become if they were ? :whistle:

Back on topic: Tomorrow's Monday, which means I'll be having a lecture on Drama and Political Culture in Elizabethan England at 9. Whee!

Right ! So off to bed with you.

Yours truly.


Mrs Holton.


:bleh:

I go to college in the morning/early afternoon, and then on mondays and wednesdays head over to a friend's house to watch his daughters. It's great :D I love my job because I have all the time and company I need! :Brain:



School is boring though :eeeeeh:

Yeah, Monday..

Monday.. Saturday.. Doesn't really make a difference when you spend your weekend doing 12 hour shifts :P

Waiting for Wednesday btw ;)

Good to see that a lot of people like there jobs but also good to see that some hate their's.
I've had a couple of jobs in my lifetime:

-PaperBoy (its nothing like the game, and also sore on your back)
-Waiter (Good tips until you spill a pot full of hot Tea on some poor fella)
-Shop Assistant (Cleaning, Stocking Shelves and giving people the wrong change)
-DJ (Good money, Good Women and you get to listen to your type of music while getting drunk and being paid for it)
-Call Centre (Mind numbing job to do with mortgages, could talk to you for a lifetime about mortgages :wall: )
-Software Testing ( :zzzzz: :help: Oh no no no but I have to do it if I want my Beng)

Monday is here, and another week to struggle through - Oh What a World :cry:

You study English Literature?

Yep, and it's great fun, actually. Mustn't let any of my tutors know I spend my free time hanging around computer game forums, though.
One day I will find a way to combine both hobbies, though, and write an adventure game called PamelaQuest - What Price Virtue?:P

Edit: Unfortunately only people who were forced to read Richardson will get the joke, so I'll never have a huge fanbase... Oh well.

Right now I ended university (business administration) and by now I have two job offerings. Accountant, which would be good in terms of experience and money, and could give me lots of opportunities in the future, or barman in a pub near my house, in which i have spent most of my weekends and money, but being paid for listening to the music I love (lets say Hendrix and Thin Lizzy), getting free drinks for my friends and even myself and meeting lots of nice and drunken people. Guess which one will I choose? :sneaky:

Anyone who says that school is fun needs some corrective drugs. Post haste.

I have a 'week off' and I've been set seven pieces of coursework to do over it. I'm supposed to be doing some science coursework at the moment, but I really can't be arsed.

Oh, I agree with you that school is perfectly horrible, Prejudice. University's still fun, though, because you at least get to choose your subject.

Damned right, AJ Raffles.
Especially going into classes which we hate and would never use in our lives anyway. :wall: Hate school... :tai:

What Price VirtuaFighter?

Or maybe What Prince Virtue? - the tale of a diminutive royal son's quest to get himself noticed.

The Sonic spinoff Tails Goes to Canterbury? Anne of Green Cables, the guide to building your own network? (God that's terrible...)

i think people always hate what they are in. if you do school you hate it. but when you have been inside a chicken factory or a hi stress sales call thing, or whatever you look back at school with nostalgia. i always remeber my mum tellin me i would miss it and me sayin *no way i hate school* LOL

Possibly, but I did have an actual breakdown in the summer holidays because of all of my work and the bastards that I go to school with.

But anyway.

Yeah, I do hope that college and uni are better. They'd best be.

It's not school that sucks. It's being forced to do what you don't want to. Better get used to it ! :D

Get used to it? Why? At university at least he'll be able to pick a subject he likes. Of course there's no way of knowing he won't end up doing a dull job afterwards, but at least those three years should be a bit more fun.

Unless you're like me and you take all the general ed subjects first, and it's STILL taking stuff you'll never ever use in life, but you still have to do it to get any degree :eeeeeh:

Are you serious ? Or do you really live in fantasyland ? :blink:

Well, no, I just think that's the wrong attitude, and it's bound to make you miserable. I mean, do you really want to go through life thinking "this is all about me being forced to do things I don't want to do"?:huh:

No ! :D
What i meant was that :
1) School is OK. It provides the only form of knowledge most people get before being brainwashed by TV and consummers society in it's evershining glory.
2) It's having to go where you don't want to go, wake up when you'd rather sleep, being bossed around, etc, that really sucks.
3) You'd better get used to it as a big part of your life will (probably) be spent doing things you don't enjoy and/or care for, and being bossed around one way or another. :sneaky:

But there's still room enough for lots of cool things. :Brain:

Pfft. Room for fun things my arse. Not with the way that I'll end up living. Nose to grindstone methinks. Well-paid, hopefully, but I know that it takes a whole load of work to get to where I want to go.

No ! :D

Well, fair enough, then.:)

@Prejudice: So where do you want to go, then? Seriously, though, if you already think it's going to be horrible, maybe you should consider something less well-paid, but which you might enjoy a bit more. You'll spend a major part of your life working, you know...

yeah dude , sorry to but in but you seem to be quite an empathic chap and im interested as to where you think your education is going to lead you because a.j is right.
there are people out there who work vocations, and you seem to be aiming for something, so before you commit you should be totaly certain that you are commiting to the right thing. its probably better that you choose the right path now rather than finding yourself years down the line and regretting stuff.....

Actually, I have no idea whatsoever what I'm going to do. That's why I'm probably going to do German, Media Studies, Maths and Chemistry, just so that pretty much every option is open.

I'm considering something in journalism, but I'm not really sure at all. I could probably do teaching as well (I'm OK with people, not that it's seemingly a requirement) or something totally different.

I have a comnputer engineering degree and did my thesis in wide area network visual object recognition and tracking.
I now write J2EE apps for the agriculture industry and get to play with really big computers.
Stay in school!

I'm going to for the near future (until I'm 22/23 I imagine) but it's still no small amount of work.

That's the spirit ! Go for it ! And never stop ranting along the way ! :ranting:

i love you sig ! :ok:

You'd love it more if you'd seen the headlines. And A.J's.

Then again, maybe not ! :D

But you have balls to make fun of this. I do approve, but if things get as bad as it seems, you'll have a hard time keeping that signature as you'll be assaulted by self righteous people who will take it badly. Count on me to defend you (on that point) if things turn sour. :Titan:

Huzzah!

You are right though. It's supposed to kill 150 million , which is a fair few. On the other hand, it might kill even more.

So wrap up warm, I don't want to lose any of you!

And remember, if "Going cuckoo", "One flu over the cuckoo's nest", "Robin the vaccine" or indeed "The Plot Chickens" appears in the newspaper, me or more likely A.J. came up with it first.

See? I knew they'd pick up on this...:P

Good lord you've been immortalised. I can't wait for the Daily star/Sun/any other rubbish newspaper to use "going cuckoo".

Anyway, well done A.J!

Hey ! You changed your sig. That was short lived. :huh:

I have a good job. Moderating Abandonia! Phew, its been busy the last 2 days. 3 topics closed...

Haha, I can laugh at you because you aren't payed.

I dont have bills either :P

Me neither.
I make money without bills! Yayzor!

i'm still at school!

and i sucks big time cos I have got teachers keeping an eye on me constantly because i never go to detensions and rarely do home work!

probably explains why i know so much about games! :D

but i don't know why they worry even if i don't pay attension in class I still get almost top score!!

:bleh:

I always do homework and never go to detentions. Teachers generally ignore me.

If that's the way you want me to treat you Danny :whistle:

I never do Hws(at least at home) and I ignore most of my teachers(the only one that are not ignored are the ones I can have interesting talk with)i want somebody like Seb! :cry:

A zombie, you mean?:P *runs away before Sebatianos sees the post*

All I can say is this. If you are going to use half a bloody roll of toilet paper to wipe your behind, do a preliminary flush.

Yeah the job and me really aren't on good terms, sure it gives me money but I really hate food service. >_<
