I was unemployed for a long time then just found the perfect job.
So I'm living in Switzerland and over there the offer for all in one : TV-Telephone-Internet... is pretty low so I aqm working for the society named Swisscom that owned the line for the past 20 years. And my job is to sell the products mostly the swisscom tv products to people comming in the stores... And I am a good seller mind you so as an exemple yesterday I made 3 sales and today I just went to work knowing I will only watch TV and mess with the customers hahahah.
So what's your job how can it be better than mine ???

if you fly on the scheds up from Winnipeg up over Hudson Bay to deepest darkest Nunavut, you see (alongside all the whales, which is cool) little boats absolutely booting it up the shore of the bay - they're smuggling beer up from Churchill into the Inuit towns. When I get bored of this mining lark, I'll try me some Arctic bootlegging!

Switzerland is pretty wicked though - you from there or just live there? I know a geologist from Zuhrich up here actually - most Germanic guy I've ever met, he even does fencing. Love it

i climb and cut trees its fun and keeps me healthy and suitably close to a fatal accident everyday, but i'm currently unemployed, with enough saved to pay my rent for a cpl months, in a country with a socialist government, so the future aint looking too bad. my work is sweet, when i go back, but the hours are not. one day i will be a free-lancer or have a 3 day a week contract.
boot leggin booze to eskimos sounds good, do they have bare coin or do they pay in fish and canoes?

i do online customer support by day at a very silicon-valley-ey internet company, so we have super flexible hours (can work any time of day so long as we work for 8 hours), i can take any time off i need, we have a fully open snack kitchen and pizza/indian/mexican is food fed to us every friday, it's a 5 minute bus ride from my house, and my coworkers are rad.
by night i run event lighting for festivals and raves and shit so i get to go to shows for free, be creative in my work and network with cool people in the "industry/scene," have the satisfaction of putting on events, and eat all the acid and smoke all the ganja and drink all the beer i want while im getting paid.
currently i am totally satisfied with where i am, work-wise. i just need to ask for a raise at my day-job, but im kind of waiting on my supervisor first since we're currently at the same pay grade. that and i could use something where im not sitting in front of a computer for 8 hours a day, my belly is getting kind of big.

Sounds bitchin'. An old boss of mine who really liked that style of working used to always comment, "Wow, this is like working at an IT company" whenever we went to sites like that. His joke being, we worked at a massive IT company, but it was nothing like most modern, American style IT companies.

They do have coin but most of it is government benefits so it's actually your money originally lol. I was given some muskox horns one time by a guy I'd befriended, and offered whale meat before - if you bought them booze they could probably give you some random animal blubber/fur in return
I want to turn the muskox horns into drinking horns, fuck yes!
