For being such a festive time, December sure can be teh SUCK! I've been so busy I can't see straight.

JObs...

Past jobs. The exciting field of dairy management at the local grocery store; retail mens' department attendant; concessionist, usher, box office cashier, and subsequent management of movie theater. (probably my best grunt-job.) Warehouse worker, followed by technician at same establishment. PC repair tech at a local fix-it shop.

Current job. Big bad IT in-charge guy. :)

Dream job. I like the 'do nothing' job; that's prettty nice. But if I could do something in computer animation or game programming, artistry, creation, etc. I'd be happy as anything. But I simply don't have time to learn the programming languages like I'd like to. Maybe when I win the lottery. /nod.

OK, I finally caught up on the fourth floor job discussion, and now I'll answer seriously (not that I wouldn't turn down any job related to FF!)

best past job: drove an ice cream truck for a summer. Harder work than it sounds, but how cool is a sales job where the customers (ranging from cute kids to sweaty construction workers, mmm-mmm!) come running to find you with smiles of joy ...

current job: geophysicist extraordinaire. Squiggle lines R us: earthquakes, oil exploration, crustal modeling, yadda yadda yadda

dream job: a spot in a modern dance company - Mark Morris, I wish, egad they're amazing!! I'd take Graham or Ailey or Limon or Bill T. Jones & Arnie Zane ...

You know what I've always thought would be an awesome job? I'd want to be in STOMP!

Get paid to bang on things and make music. Fun and more fun.

I once wanted to a be a professional musician. I went to college for flute. But that didn't pan out. If I could go back, I'd do percussion instead of flute. Xylophone, tympani. There's so much to do and it's all so neat.

You might say I've got a dream job right now. Just started today (working through New Years) at my dad's company. Basically I sit at a computer at punch numbers into a database. It's wicked easy, and since I'm the boss's kid, nobody ever gives me crap for being lazy. Not that I am, of course.

(Just kidding Orpheus, I am guilty of the very self same thing. But it's not laziness in my case, it's always having to be doing more than one thing at a time. It's amazing how much MORE work I do when I'm here than when I'm not.)

You know, most people that say they're tone deaf really aren't. They just haven't developed their inner ear. I've taught several "tone deaf" people to sing on pitch in mere days.

Trumpet's fun. I'm just I didn't play it. All that bzzzzzzzing.

Course, those stupid pie movies gave us flute players a bad name. Not too happy about that.

More American Pie, another Cheaper by the Dozen, A Big Momma's House 2 (yes I saw a poster at the theatre) and people are questioning if we'll get a Serenity 2? Grrrr Arrrrg.

Well, We've been playing with cloven fruit, for which there are many rules. And we've been playing CalvinBall, for which there are, well, none.
Hard and fast rules for Cloven Fruit:
Someone offers you a fruit with cloves in it:
Take the fruit, remove a clove with your hand for a

on the hand.
Remove one with your mouth for a

on the mouth. (remove it from your mouth first= light kiss, hold it in your mouth= "come and get it")
You now have a fruit. Offer it to someone.
Bite the fruit= "let's blow this thing and go home."
*side note: if the fruit only has one clove when offered = "come with me, I'll cook breakfast in the morning."

Well, basically.
CalvinBall: See the link provided by CMS.

THESOMNAMBULIST

This is an interesting question. I've been mulling over the future of things with my two best buds. It seems we're all in a little bit of a funk as regards our jobs at the mo' :(

In truth I pretty much think I have my dream job. I mean I've spent my childhood drawing nothing but cartoon characters. As it turned out I now do this professionally, and it has been fun, but I think, the constant meeting of deadlines, the fact that I tend to work for people who can't draw, and who invariably impose their notions upon you, well it all piles up after a while and lately the idea of quiting this has become and more more likely. :( It's a tad sad actually to think that but it is the way things are going.

That said as an alternative there are a few options that have frequently impressed themselves upon my tiny brain over the years:

Directing - I always loved films and for a while I had my heart set on aiming towards this, but a few years ago I was given the chance to direct a music video, and believe me if ever there was a thankless task, it's directing!

No-one listens to you and you spend half the day convincing the people you hired to work with you, that what they've done is good enough, but changes are inevitable and could you "pretty please with sugar on top" just alter things 'this way or that' for the sake of the shot. That and the fact that the 'artists' are sooooo prickly that it's more like hostage negotiations than directing.

....and at the end of it, nobody has ever said thanks for the lack of sleep, the hard work or acknowledged the fact that you and your cameraman, and AD are competing for sleeping space on the studio floor, while the 'star' is pampered in a five star hotel, and then still grumbles when you only give her FIVE hours for make-up and costume fittings.....before she has to lip sync to the music.

Hmm maybe not.

Otherwise lately I've been wondering about learning to fly. Dunno where that's coming from it's just kinda hit me recently. Anyone here fly ? Or has a plane or some such ? I'd love to know what jobs are around for 'Buzzboys' ? and the ups and downs of such a thing....

My dad was a pilot. He was a flight instructor, actually. Here's the long and short of it: if you like to eat, don't become a flight instructor.

If you have to wear any kind of corrective lenses (contacts, glasses, anything) you'll have a hell of a time trying to get any kind of well-paying job. Commercial airlines aren't keen on taking people with less than 20/20. That's what did my dad in. He absolutely loves to fly, but he could never get anything past instruction.

That's kind of what I'm like. But I went to college and was forced to study music theory and took lessons from this horrible woman (I made her cry once, highlight of my higher education.) and was made to practice 30 hrs a week mandatory and had rehearsals nearly every night of the week and got carpal tunnel and nearly failed out of school because I wasn't allowed to play and that whole experience sort of killed my desire to play anymore. I still do occasionally, and I'm still quite good, but nowhere near where I used to be.

Ah, now here is a conundrum, you have no idea what I look like.
