Your work?
Dec 8th, 2005 at 3:23pm
 
What do you all work as?
I'm too young to work (stupid laws), but I teach fiddle, and I have 5 pupils. I had many more, but they all found a bad excuse, and quitted. And I hope that's because  they didn't think fiddle playing was too fun.
Fiddle teaching isn't thought about as a dream work, but I really do like it. I've been working with it since autumn last year, and I think I've got better by teaching.

So, what do you other slinger work with?

I am a programmer for my parents firm.

I want a new job, however. Anyone in the north west need a hand with anything? Tongue

I'm unemployed, but have found a suprising amount of work putting up Christmas lights for people around town.

Librarian. Actually, just generally being moony brained and crazy occupies most of my time, but for 37.5 hours a week, I sit in the library and try to hide it. Not always successful, but as long as I keep baking for the library ladies (and the hot girl with whom I work) they seem to turn a blind eye to most of my shenanigans.

I want to be a librarian, but I have no organizational skills.

There'd only be two sections: Books that suck and books that rock.

We actually have a hellacious amount of DVD's. We have, in our library alone, more than 2000 titles on DVD, and I think our central branch has about 3 times that many. Too many really; the libraries have started to turn into Blockbuster video and stations for free internet access. People don't really read that much anymore. I've been in The System for four years, and there have been noticeable changes in the collection in terms of phasing out book and ordering more DVD's than the library can afford in one year. And people still complain about our selection. There's not really much organisation to it, really. It's mostly sweeping book barcodes under a scanner. I work in the front desk, where everything gets checked in and out. My biggest problem with it is that it is easily the most mind-numbing, sedentary job I have ever worked. But, I repeat, I get to work with a really beautiful girl several times a week, so I haven't rioted yet.
