Quote:I'm actually looking forward to my first real job this year. I've worked before, but not full time, so it'll be a good fresh start.
Do you have it yet, Tom, or are you still searching for one?

What is it that you do? I'm not bothered by the fact that no one appreciates the work I do, because the job description basically precludes anyone, the workers included, from taking any sort of pride or interest in the work that's being done.

I'm a maintenance worker at a McDonald's. You might be thinking "that totally sucks you have to do all the dirty work" but actually it's not that bad. It gets you away from the pressure of the customers and workers and everything. You can go outside whenever you want, since we have the freedom to do that. Just grab a broom and dust pan and you can walk around like you own the place
Some of the other things I do include filtering the fryer oil (which is actually pretty fun) and unload the delivery truck twice a week. I also do various thing to keep the place clean and neat for the other workers.
Fun Fact: I have a CC level in JoshL2, based off filtering fryer oil (in this case, fireballs)

You guys are scaring me, since I'll likely have a crappy job like that in a few years so I can pay for college funds and stuff like that. Hopefully in 10 years I'll have a really good one though!

At least we'll always have CC to help us keep our sanity, regardless.

Burnt my arm on a fryer once -- had a red mark for months.
College is insanely expensive -- you can't pay for it by working minimum wage. It's stupid. My advice is don't go into debt if you can avoid it.

Thankfully my parents are nice enough to help me out with that, since they fully support my education.

...that, and it's hard enough to just live on minimum wage, let alone pay for an overpriced education...

That's why you learn to play poker.

As I've said, I have no plans to play competitively in order to get money; I'd rather give back to society to earn money which makes much more sense to me. Poker is fun for fun though, especially since I'm nowhere near as skilled as those guys on TV and I can enjoy being bad at it!
