i quite my last job a few months ago. in a way, it turned out to be a mistake, as i'm having real trouble getting a new one to replace it.

on the other hand, i really hated what i was doing at my last job, and if i hadn't decided not to renew my contract when i did, i imagine my brain would've imploded in the meantime.

I am a graphic designer, have been doing it for over 9 years now.

Am studying my MBA to get into senior marketing management. Ideally in the future i would like to get enough investments under my belt to retire early or become semi retired.

I love most aspects of design, but at the moment I am not enjoying it too much. but I have a few options up my sleeve at the moment and they are quite exciting.

you guys that want to own a games shop, gametraders has franchise opportunities and they help you out in getting set up for it, you should have a look at their website if you are serious about getting into the game shop market. Its only getting bigger. I have thought about it, but am a bit too busy at themoment. but its some food for thought.

Do you have a Job? Yes, I work at discount variety store (fancy name for junk shop

)
What job do you want in the future? Physio, optometrist, something like that, haven't really thought to much about it. Probably going to defer UNI a few years to decide what I want to do and earn a bit in the meantime.
How is your job? Awesome, except for all the bogans that come in stinking of ciggys and B.O., but I work with great people, not stressful at all, easy job really.
Do you know anyone with cool jobs? My sister, she works at the same place as me. Nah, but for a really cool job, guy I know who is a plastic surgeon. Pretty crap job while you're doing it, but his multi-million dollar mansion on the river down the road from my place certainly is not.

What job do you want in the future - head animator of a company, executive director of madman
How is your job - not bad, would prefer retail atm
Do you know anyone with cool jobs - macdonalds, dry cleaner, checkout, cafe - no, not really
What i'm planning to study - animation/business/arts (+japanese)

Not surprising lots of people here are into the gaming side of things. Was a possibility for me, losing interest in it now, though if i do animation theres quite a chance of me running into that field.

Be careful Taco, they suck you in with the free chicken and then bam! You realize you are working a bullshit 6.50 an hour wage, and you don't get a rise for a year.

I tell you this, as I know first hand.

Do you have a job? Yep, KFC. Hey, I'm only there for the experience to put on my resume, so I can get a better job. (and the free chicken

).

What job do you want in the future? Two main things so far: A veternarian, or a teacher (secondary).
As much as I know a game designer, or tester would be sweet, I'd rather keep gaming as a enjoyable pastime, though Gaming journalism would be pretty cool ie PALGN Reviewer

How is your job? It's a fun place to work and I have had some good times there, aside from the horrendous wage and the grease that smothers my uniform and shoes.

Do you know anyone with a cool job? My uncle is a sky-diving instructor, which is pretty awesome and my best mates brother owns a reptile store, that's alright, cos I get turtles for free and he set me up with an awesome fish tank for real cheap.

El Taco · Posted: Sat Jul 28, 2007 11:07 pm�� Post subject:

Yeah, for me it's just a starting job, for something on my resume (kinda like what you said)

What's this free chicken I'm hearing?

why do so many people wana be a games designer?
its not all flashy and stuff, its just writing code.
if u wana get into the real stuff, u have to be one of the graphics renderers and 3d artists in the team.
