Sure did!

I suppose working with Mumbling on our latest song project counts as a "current job", too.

Yes it does! I work very hard

I don't have a job yet

I volunteer at the SPCA however, which stands for: "Special Prevention of Cruelty of Animals"

I work with the cats and try to get them adopted. I love it!

I would like to get a paying job there however...I just don't know which paying job I would want there...

Okay, here's my work details:

Location: My Home.

Description: I repair computers for others, create websites, and backup&upgrade systems.

Current wage: $20 hourly. I charge so little because it brings the people in in HOARDS! I can be repairing up to 10 computers at once which makes $200 an hour, however I usually only work on 4-7 computers at the same time. It's really hard to work on more than 7 computers at once, but I've done it before.

Good things that can happen: I get someone in who's TOTALLY computer illiterate. They always have a lot of work that needs to be done because they don't even know how to defrag their disks or some crap.

Bad things that can happen: Okay, when I have their computers, if something goes wrong with it, they ALWAYS blame me even when it's not my fault. I've only screwed up one computer and that's when I was helping them bring it into my shop. The stairs were slippery and I fell and dropped the computer onto the concrete. Totally broke the HD. I replaced it free of charge and it didn't cost much seeing as it was only 30gb. Unable to find a 30gb one new, I just installed an 80gig for the poor old man.

Repairing computors for a living

and creating websites too. That sounds like a nice job!

I got a a job! I got a job!

Today I got a phonecall informing me that my application has been accepted. From September 15th on I will work as a librarian in the historical library of the university here in Bochum

I will work for less pay than I would have claim to by the official "rules" but I am not after tha job because of the money but rather because I want to have a foot in the university's door so to speak.

That is great, I am sure you'll do well in the job. Plus I would guess it'll be a quieter job then some, and there are lots of books there too.

Mumbling · **Reply #29 on:** July 21, 2008, 04:07:19 PM

So, going back into library again?

Cool we kinda share jobs

Awesome Malte! You had been looking for an opportunity like this for quite some time now.

well, lets see..I start again on Monday august 18th..
back to School WORK!!
Man I hate it..except the fun classes...But it's the math that is terrible..And the NyNorsk...Anyway..That's all...

Petrie. · **Reply #32 on:** August 17, 2008, 05:41:16 PM

I guess school is considered a job.

I always said it was when I was in it.

On Monday I started my new job at the historical library of the university

Today is my second day at that job (it is always Monday and Wednesday from 11am to 4pm). So far my task is to check out the list of missing books for books which have reappeared on the shelves (they may have been put on the wrong shelves and been recorded as missing, "vanished" beyond the first row of books, or returned by a remorseful thief) and make sure that the books on the shelves I'm checking are in the right order.
It is not a fulltime job beside the studies of course, but I earn almost exactly as much as I may without having to pay income taxes for it. I'm curious about which further tasks are in store once I finish the missing books list

Sounds like your job is going well, good luck on it continuing like this.

well good luck with the job :^.^:

I don't know if I ever updated my status in this topic when I got a new job. I'm currently a special education teacher in an alternative school. Basically, the kids here are here because their normal school district did not have the services to accomodate their special needs (or didn't know how to manage their behaviors).

buffypii · **Reply #37 on:** September 19, 2008, 11:02:53 AM

Well, I am actually, not an adult so I don't exactly work officially...
But I consider school as work, so that's my occupation..
Though I'm having a work-week in week 5, and I'm gonna go and check out the petshop on Byhaven....

Kor · **Reply #38 on:** September 19, 2008, 11:31:45 AM

I would consider gong to school wither elementary, jr high, high school, or even college & university as a job also. That is just me though. I'm sure some do not.

Petrie. · **Reply #39 on:** September 19, 2008, 04:53:53 PM

College stuff--all that is asked of you constitutes a job and more.

Not always easy, I will say that. Its a job because there is value to what you do and you earn something in return.
