I'm a computer programmer for a local government, specializing in Internet/Intranet technologies. I also do some graphic design freelance work.

In my free time, I volunteer in the Global Organization Justifying the Interception of Radical Abominations (GOJIRA). Our work mainly centers on developing a global network for Godzilla detection and prevention.

Then I wake up. But the first paragraph is true.

During the summer, I worked for an Apologetics ministry/business, mainly assembling audio books, but also proofreading, attending board meetings (they claimed to ened my input), selling books, some radio-related stuf (ultimately running a radio broadcast), and quality control.

Currently, though I'm back in college, I'm still the office's only proofreader. They send me material in the mail.

:lol:

Sheesh do i feel like a loser after reading all your job descriptions.

I am an overnight stockman at Wal-Mart. :lol:

But i do get to check the freight list to see if any cool toys, etc...have come in.

I am hoping they do release some kinnikuman toys and they get sold at Wal-mart, that way i can get them straight from the box b4 they are put on the shelves for little kids to drop and tear up, plus i will get 10% off. B)

Later,
Brad H.

I fancy myself as a world destroyer, spending most of my days kicking asses and taking names. Sometimes I take a day off to read a good book, surf for questionable adult material, and spend time with my bi.tches. Lately I have been training my super dooper rare twin sons in the arts of a.ss kicking and name taking, they are quite the terrors indeed. Along with uncle Red Claw "The four fingered terror" we'll sit around the house, drink beer, and bit.ch slap all that opposes us.

I asked Dr. morley, head of the Apologetics Department and teacher of my World Religions class, if he would support me if I started a cult to finance my time in college.

he said no, but he'd be more than ahppy to critique it for me and include it in his curriculum.

MUSCLEism, anyone?

Sheesh do i feel like a loser after reading all your job descriptions.

I am an overnight stockman at Wal-Mart. ;)

nononono....sorry Brad.
i am afraid i get the prize as biggest loser of the group.
my job this summer was WORKING FOR MY MOM!
:o
yes thats right, i stayed at home and did crap work for two months.
things like redoing, staining, & painting the front deck. building brick walls in the back yard. painting the house, etc. i did get paid and it was a flexible schedule, but it just seemed lame.

usually during the school break i get some lame retail or temp job, so I hear you on the Wal-Mart tip. but at least you get to check out the cool toys (and get a discount). that is similar to the situation when i worked at Suncoast (video/toy/apparel store).

but after my big move to Spokane i plan to become CEO of Pepsi Co.

I owned my own business for 8 years (auto reconditioning) and got burnt out on that. During the last few years, I did some sub contracting as well as interior trim carpentry work. Up until May, I was a manager for a building maintenance and janitorial company. Greatest money I ever made, but the crap I had to put up with every day overshadowed the big bucks, so I up and quit. I've been freelancing as Bum this summer, developing my skills of slobbing around and gaining weight. It was last month that I decided to put down roots with a good company and got hired on at Kodak in their health imaging department. Looks like it's going to be a great job, and I start monday. ;)

I work for a finance company. Basically, I give money to those that probably don't deserve it. And i charge them upwards of 36 %!! I also get to knock on doors for money and occasionally repo their belongings.

They pay pretty well, and it supports my habit of buying many many toys. Almost makes up for the possibility of someone attacking me. Almost.

I also sell insurance to our customers that need money, so I make a little comission on that. All I know is that it is not hard work, as long as you can handle the grind of hassling people for money that you gave them a month ago.

All in all, not too bad, not too good, but my schedule is flexible if need be.

Just because I didn't notice this string before...

I'm a loadmaster in the Air National Guard 210th Rescue Squadron.

I fly on HC-130 airplanes and hang out the doors to drop medical and survival supplies to people who are lost, stranded, or just plain dumb. I refuel helicopters, drop pyrotechnics, push out pararescuemen, and sometimes just play stewardess...

I'm also going to school full time. For some degree or something. I'll figure it out later...
