I'm curently working at the informatic area of one of the departments of the university where I study (I'm working here because is summer and is vacation time), Currently fighting with the network.

Mike and I work at a law office as legal assistants. We do all the grunt work for our boss, a probate/tax attorney. By grunt work I mean Mike and I write up the paperwork used, file and organize information, take and make phone calls, etc. Essentially we handle the mundane stuff so our boss can focus on all the legal stuff.

I'm getting images of Conan walking up to shoplifters now

Conan: "You. Remove the new Linkin Park CD from your person."

Thief: "I ain't got nuthin'"

*Conan grabs the thief, slams his head into a wall, then removes a stolen CD from his pocket."

Conan: "Don't steal. It is bad for your health."

Oh, and I found footage of Tre's cousin. He's a librarian.

I think he would be best used as a deterrent. Any thoughts of stealing would vanish after spotting Conan in a suit.

And his two-handed broad sword. Don't forget that.

BTW, I don't work for Virgin anymore. Banana Republic is now my domain.

Yes, a very long time ago, in a galaxy far far away. I remember Gandhi 2: The Revenge. I'm a little sketchy on the actual title of the sketch but Gandhi mowing down motherfuckers with an MG was priceless.

Right now I am unemployed, which sucks because the bills are piling up and I really need to get a steady source of income. Razz

What I am trying to do/want to do, though, is work as a freelance artist and make money off my art. Maybe not a ton of money, but at least enough to get by. That's difficult, unfortunately. Sad

And the job prospects around here are crap. >_< I've been searching the want ads and online, and there's just nothing. It's really depressing. *cry*

Job hunting is probably the worst time ever. When I was trying to stay in Humboldt after graduation I was trying to get ANY job... but there wasn't shit.

I tried Enterprise, but I'm too noob-ishly experienced.

I worked as a janitor cleaning out empty houses.... it lasted 3 days before I wanted to drown myself in CLR.

Yeah.... job hunting sucks.
