I was just thinking about how much I don't want to got o
work, even though my job isn't that bad. what do you guys
think would be the best job and the worst job someone could
have?

A friend of mine allways used to say the kinda job he'd like
would be one where he did nothing and the postman just
brought a money cheque to the house once a month!

This friend of mine was allergic to the idea of working for
a living! And has since then realised life isn't like that
!

: )

hmmmm I'm not sure you'd be able to swing that, but it does
sound nice, a taste-tester for a candy or cereal company
wouldn't be too bad

I'm changing jobs next monday! From heavy ass truck chassis
assembly to a much easier (on the back) engine dept job. I
can't believe I've been doing this shit for 7 years now.
It's probably the money. It pays well, compared to other
shit jobs.

I've tried different things:
apprentice electrician- potential of excellent pay (30
dollars an hour) BUT 1) it'll take 5 years of apprenticeship
b4 you become a "journeyman" to make that $ (start at
12/hour) in which you attend classes and take tests like
school pretty much (so 40 hours a week plus the school's 6
hours/week), all the work is far away so expect to drive a
lot without getting paid for it adding 2 hours onto every
day.. you have to pass a math etc. test to be accepted, then
go to a fairly lame interview.... I hated this job, all the
people working in it are, like a different species of
people, they're all extremely "pro union" (their union is
super powerful though) drug using stereotypical testosterony
but intelligent people. I quit.
truck driver- I got a licence, but never used it because the
only work available seems to be cross country stuff which I
think would suck.
grocery bagger- monotonous but easy, I reccomend this path
of work actually... eventually you can make about 18/hour
and hopefully get into something like produce/shelf
stocker/dairy etc. but it takes forever to become promoted.
you can live 10 min. from work too.

let me be the one to tell you from personal experience, of
course not working has it's advantages and such like for
one: not working. and that's fine as long there is nothing
you want to have which you do not own already. because we
all need $ unfortunately to get stuff that we like so for me
i'm chill with not working cuz it's like i have just learne
that i can not afford to do anything like go see RDJ when he
was down here a few weeks ago and i can't complaibn that
like poeple go to their shitty jobs day oin and day out but
for them when the days done they get to play around and have
fun with all that $ they work so hard for and i cannot
complain because that is my choice so i do get to do alot of
stuff for free tho cuz i have cool frineds that are liek
whatever were gonna drink or go here and we'll all like chip
on or share days when they take turns paying for me to do
dtuff whith them i guess i'm lucky to have a personality
that eveyone likes to have around just think if i was a grrl
i would get stuff like free cars and coulreally do what ever
cuz like i would be cool and have a vagina at the same time
that is rare ..... but serioulsy i'm just gojing on and on
about nothing so feel free to reply and say get a job cuz i
have way to much fucking time on my hands...LOL!
