I wish I had a job to hate. I have a little project that I'm going to have to do this weekend at a place of business, other than that, I've been home all week and it looks like I'll be home all next week.

And the goddamn gubment is giving the people that caused this billions of dollars.

Web-cam interviews

It sounds horrible.

The job candidate then logs into a server to get the interview questions, which appear on the computer screen. You've got 30 seconds to read the question and a set amount of time (usually up to three minutes) to answer on camera.

Once the interview starts, there's no turning back. You can't edit your answers, and the questions--usually about seven questions--just keep coming, like them or not.

I was driving home from the office today and realized that I'm a middle-aged man working in a sort of dead-end job making shtein wages and dealing with iceholes I can't stand, and I'll be doing that for at least the next 20 years.  If I'm lucky.

Of course, Demon would kill for that job right now.  Just be happy you're employed at all.

I have to lay off four of my employees next week.  Right before the holidays, at at time of the year when people don't hire under the best of circumstances, in the worst economy since the great depression.  I then have to figure out how to do the same work with four fewer people.  While all of that is depressing enough, it's really depressing to hope against all hopes that I don't lose this job that I really don't like in the first place.  Awful.

We should tyler durden this thread and post what each of us would rather be doing if money wasn't such a necessity.

We can then embrace the large ball of regret that will explode in our faces after we realize we didn't follow our dreams.

[Zanshin]

keeping my family fed, clothed and housed is among my many dreams.
