[BadSamaritan]

I drive an overblown forklift in a giant icebox. At work, I am referred to as the 'freezer rat'.

 

I also work on computers on the side as a hobby.

[carrieofthewest]

haha! you're a rodent! actually, rats are cute, so you should be known as the ugly freezer rat! haha! I know, not very funny

[carrieofthewest]

rabbits are not rodents

[BadSamaritan]

Of course not. They are the main ingredient to one of the worlds best stews.

You are a big poop. I don't like you. All of the bunnies in are against you.

[BadSamaritan]

You don't like me? Oh noooooes!!!! Someone on a message board doesn't like me!!! It's the end of my life!!!

 

......Oh wait, I don't care. Nevermind.

[carrieofthewest]

don't go near a rabbit. He/She will attack you! Thus being the end of you.

[BadSamaritan]

My size 10 mud stompers > any rabbit

Taking this thread back on topic, my current job is laughable and doesn't deserve a mention due to it's utter crapness

However, I am trying to get into the 3D modelling Industry - either within the gaming market, movies or independant contracting.

I almost had one such job a week ago. But, I ended up dropping the job because it was simply asking for more time than I could commit due to my lifestyle and University studies.

So, alas, I'm still waiting for my next big break into the modelling world where I can get paid for what I do

(Excuse any typos, I'm a bit tired after chopping wood . . . I really need to get back into shape )

I work as a college student. It's not a job per say, but it is what I fill in anytime someone asks for my occupation.

[carrieofthewest]

ok. That's one person. Hello people! I know you have jobs. Even if you're still in school I consider that as a job. Like I said, it's what do you want to be.

I'm with Krytos, my job is pretty laughable and crappy. I've mentioned it around here somewhere, I'm a salesman for Radio Shack. Very boring, though I have learned quite a bit about the products and human behavior.

 

It will be some time before I get into my career, I still have a 2 year mission and college to get through. I'm planning something in computers, but so far I haven't been able to narrow it down any more then that.

Becoming a Tester... What a boring job that would be.

[Master_Xan]

I've actually beta tested several games before, and its not that bad. As long as the game is decent, you can get into it and then you don't mind some of the repetition. Being an alpha tester would be worse in some respects, (more bugs and more repetition), but being paid would be a nice incentive, and as an alpha tester you have more control over the outcome and correcting of problems... I can't tell you how many times I'd catch an error in the beta stage and it would never be corrected. In alpha, you actually talk to the developers, and I imagine some companies might even give you access to the code itself for minor tweaks.

 

I'd actually like to have that job myself... although I don't think I'd do well as a developer. Maybe a concept/storyline guy, but not the one who has to sit down every day and crank out code for 8 hours.
