Poll: Current Job

[bob4432]

do you like your current job, regardless of what it is/pays?

 

[Chaotic42]

Yes, I like it.

If I could get paid a nice wage, say $60,000 a year (enough to have a house and car, get married, etc), I'd gladly keep it forever. There is no way I could get $60,000/yr for what I do though.

I like the people but the way the place is run is shiat. Sucks bad for a multi million dollar joint.

Pay and benifits are awesome though.

 

[rudeguy]

my job is a job, it pays the bills

if I had my choice I would be running a computer shop....but my area is already flooded with small computer shops, plus a million BB's, CC's and CrapUSA's

 

[crisp82]

Pays the bills. better money would be really nice (only on £200 a week after tax ~ £260 a week).

Job itself is ok, can be really boring sometimes, but I can post here and learn stuff from the net. Would like a better job, but am settling for this one at the moment.

Id be happy with any job right now as long as it wasnt fast food.

 

[BurnItDwn]

I like about 80% of my job ... however there are some things I hate about it too... some things are just excessivly boring, and some things are a waste of time and prevent me from getting real work done ... argh.

More money would be really nice too ...

I liked working fast food. All the hours I wanted (I had a 192 hour paycheck once), lots of fun girls to flirt with, easy job, free food.

Enjoy it.

I didn't like my fastfood experience that much because the boss was always coked up and he'd always freak out if we didn't move fast enough. The only incentive to work faster was you got to be friends with the boss and he didn't yell as much.
The girls though...heheh. yowie! Plus at the end, I was shift manager, so I could take more breaks and smoke in the locked storage room.

I walked out of a certain McRestaurant because the shift manager was smoking crack in the bathroom before opening, leave my roomate and I to do everything. Not fun on Sunday morning.

Yes, I like my job. It's very cool working on the forefront of science. Plus I get to play with all kinds of computers.

you would be happy getting paid 60k a year for the rest of your life?

 

[Rage187]

If it wasnt for the crazy pay and the full benefits, I would quit.

But the tech job market is crap atm, and it would be so hard finding a job that paid decently.

I work at Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility, or TJNAF for short. We do nuclear physics research. I have two primary responsibilities there:

1. I operate the big accelerator, called CEBAF.
2. I am a PC Sysadmin and I'm learning Unix as well.

And we always seem to have openings.
