I used to get paid to play with toys @toys r us express but management didnt like that I knew more about toys and 1000 times more efficiant than all the employees combined...so they cut my hours. Managers thought I was after their job(I was). I quit that to work once a week as a vendor for a lumber company. I make more in one day than I did in 2 weeks at toys r us. Its heavy lifting, 12 hours days, but worth it to have the rest of my time belong to me. And its nice not having someone supervise me. I have a boss but hes on a differnt island

I don't even know what to call it, something guy, it works just the same as a factory job.
Basically it's a large medicine supplier and every crate filled with orders for pharmacies, hospitals and the likes passes through me and the machines and I have to take care of that.
It's a boring job mentally and a heavy job physically so it blows but fortunately mostly all of the people at work are quite nice and reasonable and the hours are flexible.

I am a layabout.
Physically I'm a wreck who by all accounts should be dead a couple times over, it doesn't pay well but I don't have to leave the house except occasional doctor visits or to sign for UPS stuff.
I'm very good at it, best angry cripple NA.

1st year journalism, working in a call center for election surveys for the summer unless something marginally better arises (doubtful). It's mundane but I get a window seat
and I get a lot of reading done on the side. When the next semester starts up I'll be working as a peer tutor for the school writing centre, mainly because it'll look good
on paper.

I'm over-educated, over-qualified and un-employable. So now i'm on an invalid pension. I would even get fired from this job. It does like like a good career though.

Okay, so I don't have a day job. All I do is build pedals and run ILF. It takes up 100% of my brainpower and 99% of my waking hours, but at least the money's bad.

There are pain points that stem from being owned by a corporation (Harman), but everything directly related to DigiTech itself is awesome. Love the people, love the products. It's as close to a dream job as I could ever rightfully ask for.
