What do we do for jobs?

[Sarduci]

No, I do not work on Windows.

I knew I sensed good in you, young one......

<---- familiar with the server performance team and ISA team to a great degree *sigh*

[Khayos]

I work in a warehouse packing boxes of gym spares.

I have no degree and no qualifications after high school either.

I joined the Army for 4 years and got my Sniper certificate, explosives and weapons training.

If any of you hotshots need someone killin I'm your guy. :P (total joke Mr FBI)

I work @ work 8am till 4:30pm weekdays.

I get paid £13000 a year before tax.

And I am currently negotiating with my boss to subsidise me doing a Degree in Computing so I can try and provide something better for my wife and hopefully future kids.



I'm 24 years old on Wednesday too )

I dropped out of college. For me, it was the right choice. Can't say the same for everybody else.

[TMNT]

I probably should have. I went to one of those 2 year technical colleges that in my opinion didn't really teach me terribly much. I've managed to get a job in my desired field, and I'm sure some of that can be attributed to what I learned in college and the degree I have (which is only an Associates though, no fancy Bachelors or anything) most of my knowledge related to my current job and the reason I got this job is from things I took the initiative in learning on my own.

So basically, I learned what I needed on my own in my own free time, but am still stuck with all the fees that go along with a college tuition. Fail imo.

[Sentack]

Programmer in the personal insurance industry. Mostly in C++.
No Degree. Regret it. I strongly urge anyone in college to finish up, no matter how bad it gets.
Thinking of going back to school to finish up.
Doing decently though in the mean time.

Um, confused as to why you need to negotiate? ?(

[geoffdavison]

College isn't for everyone.. took me two stabs at it 13 years apart to get into the right field..

lets see started with Computer Sci (late 80's early 90's) would have been ok.. but wasn't fun for me... i also spent way to much time drinking and chasing women...

fast forward 13 years.. by that time i had done 4 years in the navy where i was trained in Nuclear power plant operations and radiation safety.. got out worked in Rad Safety and Nuclear power operations at commercial power .. got out of that and became a Financial analyst for a health insurance company (job was denying people health insurance.. it sucked).. decided i wanted to do something worth while so i quit my job at 33 went back to school full time and tada..

I r edumactated...

[Drakkun]

I am an architect for the largest retail developer/owner in the world. I am based in the Los Angeles area. Pretty much I design large malls that cost anywhere from $100 million to $500 million to build. I have a masters in architecture and working towards my AIA license.

For TMNT, I currently make well over $100k after 8 years in architecture.

LOL! he has a good point, just post up in a tree somewhere and call your boss and be like

"i can see you through my sniper barrel scope...where is my raise?"

you might get fired/emprisioned, but we all have to take risky chances when it comes to getting a raise :P
