So what do you do?

Recommended Posts

I know it's been asked before, but I am bored.

 

Currently I manage part of a warehouse at a file management company. I am also a part time singer/songwriter, and since my old band recorded one of my songs, I may actually get paid for it for once.

I'm a claims assistant at an insurance company. Worker's compensation division. I hate it.

 

I, too, am in a band (drummer). Though, at this point using the term 'band' would be misleading as there are only two of us now.

Was an IT consultant before I got fired. Looking to get into A/V engineering. Currently testing non-FDA approved medications every other month in clinical trials for money.

That doesn't sound too good. They are not approved by the FDA for a reason.

Well when a company first releases a drug, the patent will eventually run out. When it does, generic brands can become available. So basically I'm taking drugs which have already been approved, just made by a different manufacturing plant.

 

It pays between $200-300 a day so it's a nice little vacation.

Just started a new job working at a packaging company. Pretty much just working on the presses, stacking cigarette packages.

 

Sucks so far, probably because I'm not used to the 12 hour shifts and the presses seem to go down all the time, so I've got to find something to do during that time (I think I swept the floor for about 4 hours today).

Data Entry for a company called EdFund which is basically processing updating information for student exit interviews.

 

When I got my badge, I saw that I am classified as, "Program Tech I" which is flattering considering I am just a keyboard jockey...LOL.

I'm currently in charge of food preperations at Franklin Pizza & Deli, and am starting work at the Bob's Stores franchise (a retail franchise specializing in casual attire for various demographics; the "official" store of the Boston Red Sox, and soon to be the "official" store of the New England Patriots) opening in my town when they open as an inventory control specialist. This means that I'll be waking up at 5 every morning, unloading a truck, registering everything on the truck, and placing it in its proper place.

Currently I'm working as illustrator/graphic/web designer for a small internet software company. Brochures, posters, ads, websites, logos, icons, packaging design....these are among the stuff I did in this company. I came from advertising design background, so still learning a lot on the web side of things (I hate programming in any way, shape and form). Being the lone designer, my so-called creative skills is as sharp as a drunken Kevin Nash. I'm just plain unmotivated lately. :( Thank god for TSM.

 

Plus, I have to contend with bitchy clients too...granted, doesn't really sound that tough at all to you guys, I'm sure. I have utmost respect towards people who can handle problematic clients....err....diplomatically. Yeah. :)

I'm about to start a Music technology/American Studies degree, though if America sucks then I'll hack that bit off it.

 

Edit: 4000 posts, hurrah

 

And due to the aforementioned change of scenery I will not have an internet connection, thus I won't be around too often after friday.

I'm temping for a major publisher. I was a marketing coordinator, but they hired someone for that position and now I'm temping as a publicity assistant. That won't go perm for me either. It's unnerving waiting for the other shoe to drop.

I'm a project manager/estimator for a company that builds overhead sign structures and breakaway sign posts. I have to deal with state DOTs, contractors and inflating steel prices daily. Hopfully I'll get to travel and visit customers soon because I'm getting tired of sitting in my office for 8 to 9 hours a day.
