Default Re: OT: What\'s your job/career??

This is what I do. I sit on forums. Web forums, local newsGroups, support forums, channels, chats, support email accounts. Also computer security response. Anything where a "presence" is desireable and immeadiate reaction is preferred. I telecommute from home with DSL (many advantages but it is fattening). I can watch TV, or play games, or anything I want as long as I can stay responsive to any other windows that call me.

As for suggestions... this was more true a decade ago but still might be true. DO NOT try to force yourself into something you dont like. Get creative. I get asked alot about "getting a computer defree" and my usual response is that if you dont already know you should then you probably shouldnt. High interest in computers is useful but attach it to something you want to do. No matter what it is; art, english, fireman, policeman, doctor, lawyer, teacher, coal miner, etc etc.. you can move yourself up in the line for hire if you can firmly attach computer to it. EVERY job nowadays needs SOMEONE who knows computers.
