SkydiveNFlorida 0 #1 December 13, 2003 I may not make the most $$ in the world, but I LOVE MY JOB! I just got back from Gatsby's Grill... the managers paid for everyone in IT to go out, drink, eat & be merry. I only had one beer, since I had to come back to work... but, they paid me to go out and eat. mmm, fried calamari, grilled wings, spinach dip, califoria rolls, southwestern egg rolls, portabello & sun-dried tomato pizza... and there was more I couldn't even get to. Beer was also good:) And now, since the semester is over, I get to come back here and slack while I earn $$ for jumps:D life is good! Angela. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

usedtajump 1 #8 December 13, 2003 Me too. I sit on my ass all day, take about 6 or 7 phone calls, set up an airplane charter or two, collect a fat salary and PW on DZ.com, a motorcycle BBS, a Dallas history BBS and having worked in the business years ago, a professional wrestling history BBS all day. What's not to like?The older I get the less I care who I piss off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #12 December 13, 2003 There's only ONE really shitty part of my job. The BASTARDS made me move to Cleveland, OH. Otherwise.....my job is pretty damn cool. I'm inside where it's warm.....I make LOTS of money....(Well...I will...Come on New Year Raises!!!) I get to oggle HOT chicks all day....I get free food....I travel (And keep the Hotel Club Bennies) If I could get out of Cleveland and go back to Atlanta life would be sweet!

flyangel2 2 #15 December 13, 2003 I love my job too. Weekends and evenings off. Most times as an interpreter for the deaf in the college classroom, the students are doing some kind of independent work. So, I get paid to just sit there. Oh, and I get summers offMay your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.

ACMESkydiver 0 #17 December 13, 2003 GOOD LORD I think this is the most gut-wrenching, sickening statement I have ever seen posted on this forum: QuoteI love my job!!! That said, glad you do not hate what you do for a living. I don't hate my employer or what I do for a living either, but 'loving' a job I think qualifies as sodomy in some states... If you don't own it, somebody still cracks the whip and you say 'Yes sir'...I'm still in it too, so not sayin' I'm better at all...just trying to improve and beat the rat race!! ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.
