my job kicks ***, and if it wasnt for the location it would be damn near perfect..
I really think where you live has alot to do with it too, man, i would work 90 hour weeks without flinching if i got to live back up in the hills around sacramento, but sadly san francisco is the only place with much work. I think its really the only reason i dont like my job, i just hate this city.

I've always enjoyed the jobs I had where management and fellow employees are good people. Now I'm unemployed and have a year left of school, and I'm not looking forward to the working world when I'm out.

I've had a couple of jobs that I loved but didn't end up working out because there's not much clientelle for these careers in the town I live. Any feedback would be great.
i have HBP at 24. does that count? but i LOVE my job. look at the location!

I work in the Networking Industry... pretty cool except for the fact that I am underpaid... working up the ladder within a company gets you less $$ than going from competitor to competitor.... but that's risky these days. Planning on working with government spooks to plant bugs, evesdrop, and basically make sure those with hidden foreign allegiances don't do any hanky panky and plant bugs that could bring down vital U.S. networks.

You should see my james bond tools!

Yeah my wife works as a banker and found out that new hires start at a higher salary. Needless to say, every existing employee is pissed. BTW regional manager, if your listening go f your self and watch your back as well as your tire pressure. hehe.

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHA

oh **** that is just damn funny...

what is horrible is i know several people who do what you described and they all dont strike me as the most intelligent of people..

put it like this, the people who hire spooks are normaly a **** load more intelligent then the "spooks" they hire. Well planting bugs and what not is ANYTHING but spook work, that is more along the lines of ops, or trigger pullers as some call them.

I never said I was intelligent. Remember, I'm either being humble by naming myself Helladumb, or something else.

By the way, when you say intelligence, do you mean book smart, IQ, wisdom, or ???

If I had to rank my own "intelligence," I'd say I'm in the bottom of the 90th percentile of "educated folk," aknowledging there are literally thousands of people more intelligent than I.

I love my job... awesome pay, benefits aren't too shabby, I've been in this office longer than anyone else so due to seniority I can do whatever I want. I'm so used to the stress of my job that it doesn't even bother me anymore.
