Re: Jobs?
I'll bite, I have the different job amongst us anyway. Not sure if weird is the right word, but not like most.
Currently, I'm a theatre director in the Off-Off Broadway community of New York City. Nothing major, just houses that seat less than 100 people.

A full-time, high-intensity, unpaid labourer (a.k.a. student).
I'm not dead yet. In a rut right now because of stress from work. I'll be back later in S89. I also plan to bring back the Mastergram - if I can find a way to run a timer or clock through pure MediaWiki without having to upload to Vimeo every time.

Funnily enough in your latest post it now finally points to "Devotee"... and I guess once I post this you're going to be a Postsman. (edit: half way between a Postsman and a joiner.)

I give opinions about basketball, publically via articles for web media companies, and privately via consulting contracts with agencies. And I teach young kids science. The two spheres are not in any way related.

Re: Jobs?
Just realised I never responded to this. It's for a small 'niche' motor insurance company (that's how my recruitment agency sold it to me anyway) called Service Underwriting. Basically I just enter data about cars and motor insurance policy-holders all day. Fascinating stuff. The people I work with have grown on me though and I'm the agency's inaugural 'temp of the week' so it seems I'm good at entering data about cars and motor insurance policy-holders all dayJon O'Neill wrote:Company?Jennifer Steadman wrote:ok not really but it's more interesting than being an insurance underwriting temp
Probably won't be there much longer though as they're no longer going to be dual-processing stuff in the near future. (Not that I'm there this week anyway as I'm on work experience for my local paper.)
