Hi, PYBOB - welcome!!

Just checked out your site, looks pretty cool. Might send a story myself some time.

[Krynus]

What happened??? I was typing away here and my screen reloaded and erased everything I typed. Oh well, I'm not doing all THAT again. Here's what I do in a nutshell - I work for a publishing company in southern Florida. We put out a catalog full of other catalogs for various companies. I'm assistant to the programmer here. I also help out in other depts, such as data entry taking orders etc etc. Seems I'm the only person here who has the balls to change the fluorescent lights haha (people here get scared when they hear pops and see sparks fly). It's not too bad, though I think I'd like to run my own pc support center, making house calls to people's homes, either that or get the writing thing going. Maybe it would be easier to rob a few banks and retire, eh?

I'm a motorcycle instructor and a part time freelance motorcycle journalist.

The high point of this is that i get to throw around lots of new bikes.
The down side is that I ache in cold weather.

I actually love what I do and I'm bloody lucky to do it.

Cheers

This is my first post...
My job is a University Food Service Manager. I've been in food service all my life: cooking, serving, catering, and managing. They say it's one of the all time most stressful jobs so YES, I'm not running on all my cylinders. It's great to be part of the Lumley community.

Oh, I like the "Green Can" Pringles the most. heheheheh

[Rikus]

Wow, two firsts in a row, I'm a BlackJack Dealer from Minnesota. I guess that's not really working but I try.

i am a 'production assistant' for a publishing company. i do mag layouts, ads, and whatever else i can teach myself. we do trade mags (builder/architect, m.d. news, and a few others), and pump out a LOT of issues a month (around 200) for the different regions in the us and canada. gets pretty dull topic-wise, but it's better than making pizza...

I work at an uplink facility for several cable tv channels. It's really a boring job, as I'm not really interested in any of the programming that we air But it beats having a "real" job. Plus I'm on the night shift with the rest of the Wamphyri!

Actually we're rather fond of the salt and vinegar Pringles - in the blue stack.

I am a coordinator for a program that does inspections for insulation and Carbon Monoxide testing for income challenged residents. We then hire contractors to insulate the house to specified standards.
I also have a side job where I work on Carbon Monoxide Detection Devices for Heating Contractors...

I am working for an independent freight company in Manchester as the Credit Manager. Boring, Boring job.

The only part I enjoy is meeting the customers who I am suing. It's great, they really hate me. I have some great arguments. I do try to be good at wordgames but I think I need Faethor Ferenzy to give me some tips.

I was in the U.S. Air Force for 4 years (stationed in Nebraska- the HellLands)working in computer communications systems, but now that I'm free I work on the computer systems at the hospital here in Flagstaff, AZ.

I try my hardest to consider college work but it is way too easy for one such as I. Well i do that and i work weekends at a video store and bore myself to death with all the movies, and when on break from school I dive right in to the manual labor, a rousabout for an oil company. But I am studing to be a physics engineer and hopefully work for NASA or something like that!!!!
