I'm sitting here in my office eating lasagna from Spagetthi Warehouse that I didn't pay for, listening to moe., and browsing 404, and I realized how kick ass my job really is.

This place is literaly nothing but perks. But it still got me thinking...what could make this better? What cool stuff am I missing out on?

For the sake of the discussion, I'll pick one thing that trumps the rest...the fact that my boss knows every ticket broker in the tri-state area. We had fifth row seats to Bob Dylan a few weeks back, and he's already given me a handful of 2nd row Blackhawks seats from when he has extras and I have the night off. He also told me last week that as long as I take him with so he can see what all the fuss is about, he can get me a private box (or something venue-equivalent) at the moe. show in Milwaukee in February.

Ummm...

...

thinking

...

I get paid?

When I work, I do next to nothing. At college, I can go high as shit and no one cares.

The best thing about my job and my school is that they don't exist.

I get paid? And I get health insurance and shit?

I don't do jack in school and I still get decent grades.

I don't even get that yet...fucking 90 days shit! Today was day 75. I need insurance!

I don't technically have it yet, I have to enroll in it and shit, but there's no time limit or whatever on it. But at 360 hours I get a dollar raise to 14.87 an hour, and another 50 cents if I switch to 2nd shift

What do you do?

I put boxes in boxes

I can play with the lab mice at my job. But there's nothing good about school.

Wow. I'd do that for that much.

I make $11/hr to do a whole bunch of shit...plus I work stupid ass hours.

Approximately
Tuesday: 8:15am-6:30pm
Wednesday:8:15am-2:30pm
Thursday:8:15am-5:00pm
Friday:8:15am-2:30pm
Saturday:8:15am-7:00pm



My cousin cleaned up lab rat poo for a while.

My friends (most of which are in my major) are great. It's nice having classes with good friends.

Uh... I get 8 bucks an hour for an easy job?

I don't have a job.
School: I guess that attendance/work during actual class time is not important. They also cook up like 5-6 different vegetarian foodstuffs a day in the cafeteria. That's something.
I'm also 30 minutes away from NYC but I don't drive and bus + train was actually easier to get to the city when I was on Long Island. Getting back here from the city without a car early in the morning is pretty annoying.

My job is awesome:
In the summer I work at a playground with 6-12 years old. I get over paid (On the city payroll) to basically bask in the sun, and play tag 8 hours a day five days a week. Now that the kiddies are back in school I run a variety of afterschool programs for them from crafts, to cooking, to sports. Its fun.

The best thing about school:

I don't have a job. The best thing about the job I used to have was the free food, and how well I got along with my coworkers.

Best thing about school? Nothing all that interesting. I'm in a really good engineering school, but it's boring and I have a terrible work ethic. The most enjoyable thing I did recently, oddly enough, was wander around a totally unfamiliar city at night in the rain. Alone.

I get to hit on underage girls. It's awesome.

in before beautiful and natural

That is exactly what I'm trying to do.

At my job lately I've been playing a lot of phone hockey and shop till you drop. Pretty slow and laid back. Cold as shit though.

School, it's got the classic look and for the most part is pretty laid back as well.

OK, that sounds like a perk I can get behind, no pun intended.

School: I get to live away from the family and be on my own.

I'm a dog groomer. I guess it's cool that I get paid to wash dogs and play with them afterward. I'd do something else if the money was better, though.

Most of the work at my school is challenging and engaging, rather than repetetive and boring.

The money. If I could get payed this well to do anything else I would do it in a heartbeat.

When I worked at a movie theatre the 13 year old girls would always flirt with me trying to get free stuff me thinks.

Either that...or...13 year old girls all want my shit.

Argh fucking argh at Jeff and Joff.

Yeah, I noticed that too. That's gonna get really annoying.

Currently unemployed, but the best thing about my school is definitely the basketball. Nothing can beat being able to see every home game at Cameron Indoor Stadium.

Oh. The best thing about the job I used to have is that I got to stay in hotels all over the world for freeeee.

I meet, interview and take pictures of lots of famous bands and get all the concert tickets and free CDs I want.

Now if only I could get paid for it...

Yea...pay would probably help.

The only thing I really like about my school is something I would like just for living in this city [Raleigh], and that's having a much wider variety in movies I can see in theaters, as well as pretty much anything else [I've always lived in really small towns].

Big city life~

Frankly there nothing to spectacular about school, it's boring and my work ethic is detoriating.

job, I have none as of now so yes.

Intensive scheduling at my school is the best thing we've got. Instead of 8, 30 minute periods a day, we've got 4 eighty-five minute periods a day with a class switch mid-year.

The best thing about it is that I'm there.

We're allowed to have sex in the break room.

I don't have a job, and school sucks.

Only good thing about school is the drama club, which isn't even sponsored by the school. The only reason it's tied to the school at all is so we can use the stage.

Meh, my current classes have a 5/1 female:male ratio.

Downside, -ALL- of the women are married.

Did you tap that?

I am working at a furniture manufacturer. I package furniture, I get the furniture ready when it is finished, I package legs in bags, I put legs on furniture that requires it, I take apart furniture when it is sent in for repair, and other odd jobs.

It sucks hard, but it's money. Yup, payday is the best part of my job. $12CAD/hr

My school has a 3:1 female to male ratio. I have two classes where I am the only guy. I have not found more than a handful of girls I can stand to talk to outside of class despite this.

I work with my best friends, and actually get to spend a decent amount of time with them. Plus, 40% discount on food when I'm on shift.

OK, a positive female to male ratio is also something I'm missing. The only cute girl at my job is the boss's daughter. I could probably tap it, but I'd basically be handing in my resignation.
