I hate my job!

[Diomedes]

I was breaking your stones.

If I weren't so touchy on the subject, I would have picked up on that.  I'm pretty conflicted about the job.

[Zanshin]

Well, the only advice I can offer is to not make a decision based on money alone.  I did that once, and it was a horrible decision.  No job is perfect, but the trick is to make sure those inperfections aren't things of great importance to you.

All work sucks. I think the best you can do is find a balance between pay and a company full of employees that you actually enjoy being around.

I love my job.  I am a farmer.

[Diomedes]

That sounds like something I could handle.  I'm hating all these goddamned people, all these corporate scumbags who think their shtein don't stink.  At this point, I'm willing to dig ditches just to get away from this "culture."

I travel about 25% a month, and it's usually great.  Sure I have to put up with airport security, weather, delays, hotel rooms, crappy food, and wasted time.

But I don't have to spend that time with my wife.

So it works out in my favor.

Hear, hear. I also tried this once, quit after 2 months to travel around Spain. Best decision I ever made. Over a minimum threshold, money don't mean shtein. You just spend more.

It works well for me too.

Have you watched Office Space recently?

Started the new "job" today. Of course it's not a job, it's an internship and I don't get paid anything. It's at a small newspaper in South Philly, I do little things like transcribe letters and write a small blurb about the food recipe of the month.

One thing interesting is the grammar in these letters. Just amazing how uneducated some people are. I mean, I'm an idiot. But there are people out there who send in these illeterate letters. I should foward them to rjs so he can get the grammar police on their asses.

"Food recipie" of the month?  You're a college student.  What are you going to write about?  1,000 ways of cooking Spaghettios and Ramen noodles?

Awesome.

Geo- Readers send in recipes, I combine that with one from some website and right up a 100ish word intro. Nothing big.

Sassy- Well done.

[Diomedes]

How exactly does it surprise you that the kind of person who is submitting recipes to this dinky paper happens to be illiterate?  Plain as day to me....they're submitting farging recipes to a stupid newspaper!!

[MDS]

no actually its the people writing letters that cant actually write.

its like a little community paper, people do those types of things.
