I'm currently a student and unemployed :(
But in a month or two I'll be doing volunteer work at a butterfly zoo with classifying and mounting butterfly specimens (because apparently the employees there don't know enough about butterflies despite working with butterflies) so my ridiculously sponge like brain finally pays off.
What I really hope to do is work with the other animals they house there after I'm done stabbing and classifying butterflies :D

I hope you find something soon. The longest I've ever been out of work is 18 months and it was hell. Not helped by the people providing your unemployment benefit treating you like scum and acting like you are having the time of your life whilst they work hard. £120 a fortnight and they treat it like it comes out their own pocket.



I work in customer service listening to people's bullshit on the phone.

Anyone who makes a Snyder of Berlin logo into a Snyder of Cwcville logo is entitled to a tugboat, and probably a much more substantial tugboat than you currently get.

I'm an unemployed part-time student. So, pretty much a basement-dweller who has to do something constructive with his time. I'm studying Supervision and Spanish right now.

I'm looking for work right now, probably as an office assistant or in retail. I have a bachelor's in business administration, but I hate business; I have no idea why I studied it. I also studied medical assisting and communications, but didn't earn a degree in either and neither one really appealed to me.

I'm thinking about studying either vet assisting or pharmacy assisting. The medical field is pretty strong where I am.

I used to work in an amusement park, but it sucked working over 60 hours a week and not getting overtime (it's seasonal and seasonal jobs don't have to pay overtime). I worked there for three seasons and my fourth season I worked 5 weeks and quit.

I'm going to assume that you're referring to Cedar Point. I worked there for three of the worst weeks of my life. On the one hand, fun times with easy foreign girls, but also horrible burns from hot grease, what with frying potatoes in a 140 degree sweatbox of a concession stand for 12 hours a day. The money sucked, the managers sucked, and Sandusky, in general, sucked as well. Suffice it to say that I don't miss it.
 
I'm the VP of Sales for 7 and I Holdings Co.'s US offices. My job includes overseeing the regional distribution of supplies to our 8,000+ 7-Eleven retailers, maintaining the master ledger, handling franchising applications and processing requests from our clientele. I share the position with four other people, and I'm officially supposed to work the West Coast, but I usually get called in to the eastern offices from time to time. Because of this, I have a home in LA and an apartment in Newark.

Yup, it was Cedar Point. I worked in the warehouse.

Yeah, I kept going back because of the foreign girls :lol: Gotta love the Bulgarians!

The first three seasons weren't so bad. I got on this terrible medicine and gained a lot of weight before my 4th season, so doing manual labor sucked.

My brother fared a lot better. He got his current job as an accountant from contacts he had at Cedar Point.
 
I'm an inventory associate for Walmart. I'm one of the two remaining inventory associates left on the team, and the only one willing to work extra hours so shit actually gets done. I count what's on the sales floor, in the back room, and get merchandise for department managers. It's physically demanding work, and mostly thankless, because many department managers don't like the fact that we point out "mistakes" in their bins. We also have to deal with the incredibly inept and willfully stupid overnight people who see fit to just shove crap into the bins without actually binning it (that is, using a scanner to mark merchandise in a certain location) or overstocking the shelves.

And I make barely above minimum wage.

I'd like to continue work in this field, though, if my writing career doesn't take off like I hope it will. There are plenty of warehouses and inventory companies in the Virginia Beach Area.
