What you do for a living?

I'm not sure if I posted here before, but in case that not, here we go.

I'm still going to school, so little chance to work for me. All I do to be able to go on collecting is reselling games and giving private lessons to smaller students. Last thing gives me between 40 and 100 extra bucks a month, so never underestimate worried parents and their purse ;D

I'm in 12th grade now, so theres still 1 1/2 year to go till graduation. I think I'll study something media design-related as I'm more than just bad in sciences and maths.

 

Awesome, but, isnt this conversation against your NDA?

 

Well my salary is not stable at all so I don't hesitate very much to talk about it. This month for example I earned almost nothing as there are eater holidays ;_;

 

Nono, I was talking about the guy who works in WipeoutHD

 

I must admit, it took me some time untill I was pursued that you were talking to me... but I was too lazy to go one page back to check it out ;D

 

Nah.. should be ok.. Its common knowledge its just a matter of time now!

;-)

 

I work with Special Education children.

 

I'm an Accountant. I get to play with a lot of money that's not mine.

 

It could be worst: a friend of mine is a banker and he has to see shitloads of money everyday, yet he cant take any.

While it kinda sounds funny he said after a while it gets very depressing...

 

Visual Basic programmer, write programs that process statistical information. I will eventually be moving to SAS, SPSS, Blaise, Manipula and SIR programming.

 

What the fuck are these? I must live in a hole or something.

I work in one of those places that does just about every thing in C or C++, and won't change until something faster comes along.

 

It's all statistical programming languages, Blaise and Manipula for example are used for writing and handling massive multi-routing questionnaires.

 

so, in other words, you code our spam?

I hate answering questionaires

 

I don't code them, I do all the back end fiddling with the code, things like variable changing, merging datasets, publishing the clean files, etc.

 

but do you find your job enjoyable?

 

I do actually, I spend most of my time just pissing around with VB making stupid little programs for fun or making programs for the Mrs to use in her job.

 

Wow, good thing your boss isn't reading these pages then! O_O

 

Luckily/unfortunately (depending on how you look at it) this site is blocked by the content filter in the office.

 

For the time being I'm a freelance PHP programmer and web designer. I have a couple of clients in Miami, Florida, so I usually go once a year to make some new clients or visit old ones. Luckily next week I'll be working as a sales representative for 7eighth a company here in Uruguay that does overseas work. Programming, websites, etc, and also offers programmers for being hired.
Not much but gets the bills payed and helps me build my collection, as it is very hard to get videogames down here (because of the high prices, usually 3 times the prices you get in USA)
