going back to school was the best thing to ever happen to me, next to becoming a father... hope you enjoy it
Real Estate Appraising and more recently, home renovation. We're working on 2 farm houses. One of which is a cool old farm from the 1800s. The appraisal business has been absolutely slaughtered in the past 3 months for my boss and I so we're doing all that we can to put food on the table. It's getting pretty bad. I'm also slowly puttering away at getting a bachelors in Religious Studies. I've really learned to love school more now that I don't do it full time and am taking it at my pace. I plan on continuing college after getting my degree so I can line the wall in my personal library at home with useless degrees. I'm thinking History or English next.
I'm a researcher/interventionnist for a huge hospital in Montreal, the Mcgill University Health Center.
I'm still a teenager, so thanks to the economy, which is oh so lovely, getting a job around here involves bloodsport. But anyway, I am enrolled in a CCNA class at a BOCES center. Several (almost) free certifications and 8 college credits for Adirondack Community College? Yes please.
I'm a full time student (lolexcusefornothavingajob), and on my spare time I buy crashed/broken whips, fix, sell for profit.
I am a chemical technician for the largest most advanced Super Absorbent Polymers plant in the world. I work for BASF. I love my job. The hours are long (12 hour shifts) and sometimes incredibly hot and hard (average temperature in the building is 100 degrees F, usually hotter, though with high humidity and no air movement), but it is still a very fun and rewarding job. pay is good, lots of opportunities for overtime, and 4 days on, 4 days off is pretty damn fantastic.
I work with idiots... Oh, excuse me, medical staff... I'm surprised they can wake up without effort, much less go to nursing school. *sigh* A job is a job. At least it pays well... I'm in school, getting ready to move from my local college to Florida Intl. Univ. - Leaning towards IT/Security. I've been looking into Computer Forensics a lot lately. Something about it caught my attention. Maybe it was.... YouTube - GUI interface using visual basic to track the killers IP address CSI
Help desk for several hospitals. We also alternate between help desk and actually working in the hospital doing general IT work.
haha I work at Tim Hortons....just got a 10 cent raise today wooohoo for getting 90%on my review....BALLS TO THAT PINNER RAISE for busting my ass serving grumpy Asians their mee-gee-um dapple-dapples and watching my fellow employees cough in their hands and serve food....I hate that I've got no authority to say anything buuut it's only temporary. I've been looking into taking a business course and starting up my own landscaping company, hopefully I can have that up and running by spring!
Nah, fuck working on cars for a living. I'm taking an associate's degree networking program right now, probably gonna change to a 4 year school when I'm done and get a BS in Computer Science.
IT Generalist at a company here in CT. Do the networking/server work, DR, security, SQL server administration, and also program in .NET (C#/VB.NET) and T-SQL. We're a small department (6 people including CIO and help desk), but account for probably 70% of the work required for the company (90 people). Between new modules being developed for internal use, new SaaS offerings to clients, translating the application into different languages, multiple currencies, etc., we've got enough work to last us another 2 years without any new features / enhancements requested.
Clarification - Masters Graduate Student For the people who went for Phd, what pushed you from wanting to do your Masters to wanting to do your Phd? I can be employed if leave just after my Masters. I am also considering law school. What was your experience?
