when you meet their families trying to adopt, first thing you should do is ask for something to drink. when they get you something, put the drink on a table without a coaster. If they don't say anything - fail! No kid for them.

But, it's great. It's fun; it's challenging, and I think the profession is heading in the right direction as a whole as it becomes more clinically oriented. Do you have your BA in pharmacy?

You also get called to help out at the majestic theater also. you can make an extra 400-600 a month just working on Saturdays.
If your not sure who to talk to go to any fire station those guys do it also for pocket cash they will give you the number to call.

Well I found out Friday in order to make the big bucks i have to learn the software. It's very hard and frustrating because it locks up on you at anytime and if you don't save every time you do something your screwed. But now that I turned my two boss's on to Snagit, and Re size genius and show them how to recover lost data they like me even more,
In one weeks time I was able to relieve my boss's from having to do over 9 different tasks everyday. The boss (mr.Duncan) told me outside not to worry about the "head ###### In Charge" joke he doesn't hols any grudges, and the rest of the crew are starting to like me and depend on me to do little thing they can't do while at work.
So now I only make 150.00 a week but I get free rent,free wifi, and food and beer. So it's like I am really getting 350.00 a week if you take away the 100.00 a week rent, the 40.00 dollar wifi, 50 dollars in food, 25 for electric,and 25-30 in beer. I think I can live with that since I was only making 50.00 a week doing small laptop work.
besides can't really complain since I told the boss I just wanted 50.00 dollars a week.
But yesterday I was sitting on my bed watching Undercover Boss and I realized my job my be in the top three best jobs category. As I sit there eating pork-skins I looked around me and thought how many people have a three bedroom house to themselves, we have 4 laptops two desktops, a fridge full of beer ,my closet full of snacks, I am never late for work.After 5pm I can spark up a joint. I can walk around in the nude.
I can play my PC games and listen to a movie and I don't have to worry about someone living next to me or above me like i did in my apartment.
If I need a flash-drive,blank DVD-RW, blank CDs,pens paper,coffee,etc i just go into the next room and get it. I get to listen to radio or play a movie on my laptop while at work. And when I do work it's mostly office stuff, filing names into the PC,making folders for the clients. call people to make sure they know we are coming that day, and I get to add the photos in the PC and I keep the coffee going.
I get free breakfast tacos in the morning, church's or subway for lunch, pizza or jack in the box for dinner, My cell phone is paid my storage is paid.I have no one to answer too, I can come and go as I please. My child support is paid already after i called them last Tuesday to tell them I have a job they told me my daughters stop going to collage.. and with a 1,500.00 GB hard drive I don't have to worry about running out of space now i can download huge files like all the MASH tv shows,soul N Funk collection 18 gbs right there. all the BBC planet earth collection, and box sets of other TV shows and entire music collection from any artist.
So in reality Kim leaving me made me realize having a life is not so bad after all.

Only three questions remain for me.
1. how does your stomach function with so little fibre in your diet?
2. do you get any exercise?
3. how can you watch the BBC Planet Earth series, which I love BTW, and still believe the planet is less then 10,000 years old?

This is my question. Well, in general. If I went 1-2 days with breakfast tacos and fast food for all three meals I think I'd be a hot mess.
Not that i have much room to talk. I haven't "worked out" in years and the most healthy thing I do is take multivitamins.
But, if you think your job is "cool" all the power to you. That's what makes the world go 'round.

Do you ever post your eBay links on craig'slist? I always try and help people who rely on sales. Sometimes I will buy something from someone off the street or on the phone just so they can make what little commission they get after each sell.
To me selling is hard especially when the economy is not that good. And I found even if you do make a sale if you add up your time wasted trying to make that one sale you could have made 5 to 10 times more if you just had a job that pays minimum wages.
Good luck on your eBay auctions.

To be honest this is how I was eating when I lived with Kim. Since she worked and i was the live in maid I ended up eating frozen pizzas and calling papa Johns pizza many times. But I do remember making tortilla soup and pot roast a few times so maybe you have a point I need to find something with fibre. Did you take any medical courses in collage? just wondering what made you ask the question!
2. do you get any exercise?
Not really since my back and knees went out due to the sciatic nerve damage i have I was never able to walk more than one block then I have to turn back around. For months the docs at the VA thought it was my knees all this time is was a pinched nerve in my lower back that is sending the shock waves of pain down my legs. I was the one who Google knee pain and saw how the Sciatic never makes it hard to walk.
3. how can you watch the BBC Planet Earth series, which I love BTW, and still believe the planet is less then 10,000 years old?
If there is a good Documentary that has won many awards I have to see it. In this Planet earth documentary they show many close ups of animals that I like to use when I am making signatures or cool gifs I just laugh at the narrator when they show a water fall and say 25 Million years ago this water fall was located 30 miles from here. and so on. The man who narrates the film does say 5 thousand years ago this tree.....or long ago or many yera sago etc....he doesn't say Millions of years like many other documentaries do.
You don't feel like the narrator is trying to make you believe there is no God or the bible is lying to people. The BBC people seem to not have any hidden agendas. But your right I usually turn off a program if they keep saying 4 billion years ago the earth was a hot bubbling ball of gas and lava etc....
The truth of the matter is I don't get upset like I did in the past I have no problem with Science as long as they don't act like their view is the only one. What bothers be is the text books in school that don't allow any other explanation on how old the earth is or how man got on this planet. Why should we be forced to have to live under Darwin's theories, why can't we look into other possibilities?
:lol
PS I don't want answers. I'm just curious/stirring. ;)
You know better than that to talk about the age of the earth and not expect me to say something back!
If you look at the BBC documentary the narrator says many times "Thousands of years ago" many of what the documentary shows they date it back to 10 thousand years they really don't just toss out 25 million or 4 Billion years like we do in America when we make a film or a book.
Glad you found a happy place, mate. :hat
Now you have a place to stay when your in town! :smokin

This is my question. Well, in general. If I went 1-2 days with breakfast tacos and fast food for all three meals I think I'd be a hot mess.
Not that i have much room to talk. I haven't "worked out" in years and the most healthy thing I do is take multivitamins.
But, if you think your job is "cool" all the power to you. That's what makes the world go 'round.
If you think about it how bad is a breakfast taco?
It has a flour tortilla made by hand, it has potato and egg, sometimes i get Guisada, or bean and cheese.
Now lets look at what many Americans eat.
Sausage from a box has..............................
How processed is the food you eat?
The issue with additives in 'adult' foods is not so much that scientists fear they will give us all ADHD, but rather that they are strong indicators that the food we are eating is far from fresh. The party foods identified by our experts as being high in additives or highly processed, represent a small sample of the chemically-laden foods we could eat most days. As with additives in kids' food, scientists don't really know the long-term effects of eating highly processed foods, or what happens when lots of additives are consumed at the same time.
All the additives and processing methods used in the UK are approved by the Food Standards Agency and E numbers are approved by the European Union. None the less, some scientists and nutritionists still question their use and safety.
What is certainly true is that the increasing availability of processed food makes it easier for us to avoid the fresh produce we need while eating certain foods that may taste pleasant but are nutritionally suspect. Processed meats like cheap pâté are often simply saturated fats and salt mixed with preservatives, flavourings and bulking agents, and are relatively low in protein, essential minerals and vitamins. Full- or reduced-fat desserts can be empty of anything but calories.
It's hardly surprising then that nutritionists like Jane Clarke and Patrick Holford suggest avoiding additives like these in order to keep your diet as healthy as possible.
Maltodextrin is a sweet polysaccharide made from corn. Arguably, it has no real nutritional value beyond that of sugar as it is as rapidly absorbed as glucose. It is used primarily to give body, flavour and viscosity to foods like packaged desserts and crisps as well as having a nice 'mouth feel'.
Emulsifiers, thickeners and stabilisers are designed to add viscosity to liquids while still feeling right in the mouth, as well as binding or stabilising other ingredients. They are common in dressings, sauces and desserts. Many of these have natural sources, such as guar gum ( E412 from the guar bean), xantham gum (E415 from glucose), carrageenan ( E407 from seaweed) and pectin (from fruit).Mono and di-glycerides of fatty acids (and E numbers from 471-9) are sometimes derived from genetically modified soy beans. These products do not pose any specific health risks; they merely suggest the finished product is a processed one.
Potassium sorbate (E203) is an antifungal, increasing shelf life.
Dr Richardson has 'come across offenders who consume so much sugar in drinks that they are virtually flatline hypo-glycaemic, which can contribute to offending behaviours'.
Sodium acetate (E262i) is a chemical used in the paper industry and in heating pads. In food it is used as a preservative.
Flavour enhancers may be included in foods marketed for adults, such as disodium inosate (E631), disodium 5-ribonucleotide (E635), ordisodium guanylate (E627), which is not permitted in foods for infants and young children under the age of three in some countries.
Stimulants taurine, glucuronolactone andcaffeine are present in some fizzy and 'energy' drinks. Caffeine is the world's most popular psychoactive drug. Renowned nutritionist Patrick Holford points out that combined with large amounts of sugar it may have a 'behavioural effect causing aggression and irritability'.
'Reclaimed' meat, such as pork connective tissue, is common in cheap meat-based products such as paté and sausages. Made from the last scraps of meat and offal left on the carcass after the more nutritious cuts of meat have been removed, it goes through a number of processes in order to make it palatable.
Potassium nitrate (E249 or saltpetre) is a preservative, which also happens to be used in fireworks.
Sodium nitrite is a colour-fixative and preservative. It can only be used in EU countries in very tiny quantities as it is toxic to mammals and is banned in foods for under-threes.
Sodium metabisulphite (E223) is a preservative sometimes associated with skin reactions.

Dude don't leaves us hanging like this we want details!! I used to always ask the cable guy for free shit. I knew a guy that worked for timeWarner that charged 50.00 dollars one time fee he will hook up your cable. But sometimes it only lasted one month or it lasted 4 months depending if anyone moves in or out of my apartment building. Everytime I saw soeone move I knew my cable was going to get cut off.
Back in 1982-83 In san Antonio we had Rogers cable you got a slider box like this.

many people would put a splitter on their neighbors house and run cable into their house. Rogers cable began to suck when they found out people were putting cable in their kids rooms Rogers Cable wanted to charge people another 30 dollars a month for each room you installed cable in.

hahaha! No because I don't even need to talk to the customer. I can just find the box and disconnect it. Yeah people have gotten fired to giving free cable and I've seen people break into the box and rig it up themselves. As a matter of fact I caught on house getting it free so I cut the line. I was installing new services at another house. So I go out to my truck and this dude in broad day light with a hoodie covering his face walks into the customer back yard and the home owner confronted him and he started saying his internet was done but TV was fine. He was full of shit because I blocked everything. He tried to hook it up again and when he saw me he shit his pants and I told him I'd look into it.

hey can you go into more details on what you do? And how long did it take to get the job, how did you find out about it,and last did you have to have training first?
Yeah, no prob. I graduated from college in 06 with my bachelors in electrical engineering and applied for a circuit design job at Intel since they don't blow things up or harm the environment and it was a good looking company. One of their recruiters from a few years back told me I wasn't qualified to get a job there since I don't have a grad degree and my GPA wasn't great but I said wth and just sent my resume.
Later on I got a call back from the design job and they indicated some kind of interest but I never heard from them after a phone interview. Then I got an email from somebody else in AZ saying they wanted to interview me and I flew down there the whole time thinking it was for the job I applied to. It wasn't...turns out a recruiter I had met years back sent my resume to this other manager who manages rotation programs and she wanted me to apply.
So I studied my ass off on the plane down to Phx with all my old tests and quizzes from electronics courses, etc and did the day of interviews and got in. One of my interviewers also went to Clark HS like me and went to Boston U like me, so that probably helped haha.
But yeah so I did a rotation in a planning group and wanted to try something more technical so I applied for a customer support role and someone else got my resume, gave me a lab tour and hired me after my rotations as a validation engineer. It's kind of crazy that I'm a validation engineer and it all happened by chance since your resume gets around so fast when you send it out.
this is a winner imo. how did you get that job? is the i5 worth the extra money or does the i3 700 series do the job? i have some stock in intel and love the company. mainly since amd showed up to make intel step their game up. any cool stories you can tell us?
I can't tell any stories without revealing anything that isn't meant to be public info. But, I'd go with the i5 if I had a nice power supply since double the cache makes a huge difference in read/write latency.

Do you ever post your eBay links on craig'slist? I always try and help people who rely on sales. Sometimes I will buy something from someone off the street or on the phone just so they can make what little commission they get after each sell.
To me selling is hard especially when the economy is not that good. And I found even if you do make a sale if you add up your time wasted trying to make that one sale you could have made 5 to 10 times more if you just had a job that pays minimum wages.
Good luck on your eBay auctions.
I appreciate that. We sell mainly replacement irons and used discontinued clubs, so ours is a niche market. The economic downturn hasn't hit us that badly. We haven't tried craigslist because the vast majority of our business is mail out across the country, and a bit internationally. We have a retail store that gives us the local product exposure and demand. But after that we advertise in national publications, and do some local tv ads.

You know back when I was in High school there was maybe one or two students who had receding hair lines, in fact everyone had long hair. Go look at year books of 1977-1987 you will see maybe one or two students who are losing their hair. But if you look at the high school and collage kids of today you will see a large number about 25 to 40 percent of the young adults today have thinning hair and receding hair lines.
I wonder if the sun and lack of the ozone layer plays a role in all this.

Last night I worked till 1AM the night before 1:30AM And the job description keeps growing. I went from parking cars,making coffee, and answering the phone, to making folders,calling people for appointments, then i have to go to CPS and trouble shoot laptops.show them how to do system restore. and basic shit they should know already. Now I have to do the workers schedules, make the Maps of the jobs, keep track of their hours and what work they have done. Take all the pictures put them in the right files, (what house,what date,and who took them) then re-size them for CPS. then I have to find the square footage of each house. make a floor plan, and all this while I still download movies for the two boss's and their kids and families.And then the kids call my boss complaining that the DVD I made them they saw someone get up to get pop corn? WTF? Don't they know why it's called a CAM torrent? It means someone went to the theater to record the movie!
And why would the boss's kids not have enough money to just go to the theater? then i still have to go to the store for beer,and other bullshit jobs, and last Sunday I had to lay tile in my boss's sisters husbands house. when does this shit ever end?
not to mention I have to use this really loud Copier machine that doesn't copy right and paper gets jammed up in it. I feel like running over that coping machine and taking a piss in the coffee.
Anyone have any advice on how to handle the stress? the weed and the beer just isn't doing the trick anymore. :bang

Instead of your boss hiring multiple people to do your job, like an office manager, he's decided that you can do. Consider it a vote of confidence. And good experience (?) Oh, and a lot of times work isn't fun. That's why it's called work.
To add to the topic, I think I have a cool job, but not the coolest here. I doubt many of you would want to sift through the manuals and training I've been through the last few days.

That may be the best advice I have received here at ST, thanks!

No problem, I try.
They are, but then again, everything has to be up to state standards. It's enough. I won't be rolling in the dough any time soon.

Dude I think i get payed to much as it is. I just wonder how these people got around before i came along? Right now I am in my room calling people to set up inspections in my boxer shorts. I shouldn't complain I guess.
What I don't like are all the tech type questions and problems. I don't have the proper certifications to be messing around with CPS laptops their tech staff would shit if they knew I was touching their equipment, plus If any data is lost or someones laptop locks up on them they are going to say "it was fine until that guys jacked with it" and i don't want to be that guy.
just yesterday the big boss Mr.Duncan had a file that was missing and another one that was blank. That was 4 hours worth of work down the drain.
You could almost see steam shooting out of his ears. we hate this windows 95 software the government and CPS still uses.
I had him do a system restore (something high school kids can do) and when he saw the files pop up, he almost cried and wanted to give me oral pleasure. that was until he saw by doing the system restore he lost his earth wind and fire greatest hits mp3 file he downloaded last night.
To be honest I just want to sit in my room and answer the phone I don't need all these extra activities that will one day came back to bite me on what little ass I have left. please remove me from the best jobs list there are others here who deserve the award.

there are many companies that stick with windows 98 and 2000 I guess they want to keep things running smooth or else it will cost them a fortune to upgrade. I am not sure the reasons.

Why because he says so, or because what he makes a year?
How do you even know that bitch even has a job? where are the pics?
I'm the only mo-fo that has proof i actually have a job. My job is so cool i can run around in my boxer shorts and host it on youtube when was the last time Jim50 was able to smoke a joint or drink a beer at lunch time?
If you guys can't post pics of your so called jobs that can only mean two things....
A) you really don't have a job,
or
B) Your job has strict rules that you have to follow and your not allowed to take pictures and if that is true, how can it be to coolest job?
Tomorrow I will post around 9 AM me in my room doing audits with a beer in one hand and a joint in the other in my Ron Jerome boxers shorts unless someone here can actually prove that they really have a job, and can prove it by posting some pictures. the ball in in your..............

Jim is legit and you know it. Especially you.
Makes hella cash and sleeps with various young women half his age. Your boxer shorts and youtube videos dont compare, sorry.
Posting pics of my job would be as boring and drab as ever. I run a small company that produces low volume and prototype stabilizer bars to Tier 1 suppliers and the military (recently).
If you enjoy Solidworks, Gantt charts, PORs, inspection reports, quotes, kissing-ass and having the slimmest profit margin in the known fucking world, I am sure youd get a kick out of my career.
Although, if things go the way they should, I'll be sitting in Jim-style / CC-style cash before the age of 33. I'll be able to retire at 40, if I so choose. So I eat shit and bust balls now in an effort to turn a once struggling company into an industry standard.
It isnt easy, fun or rewarding, but thats why "work" is a 4-letter word.

Sorry this is where you lost me, you couldn't just suck Jim's cock you had to grab his sac? until I see a picture of Jim and his stacks of cash, or a photo of him in bed with these so called girls half his age, sorry I have to call bullshit.
This topic isn't called "whats your dream job?" it's called "poster with the coolest job at Spurstalk?"
And I have yet to see any evidence that shows I am not that poster.

I'll overlook the weak comment and get to the heart of it.
So, if I understand you correctly, if you were in Jim's theoretical shoes, you would post pics on a forum as a sort of...e-peen comparison competition?
I can think of a dozen reasons why you arent in Jim's shoes...this being very low on the list, but still applicable.
So far, no one has posted a pic of their job except you. According to your logic of "proof with pics", we're all unemployed and live on ST. Nice little reality you got going there, mouse. You wear it well, I guess.
