Posted: 03/15/06 - 15:49 Post subject: EMPLOYED!
i'd like to thank the academy...
ok, so it's not the best job ever. it's with a pretty good company (ipsos) - but it's phone work, doing market research and stuff.
there's room for advancement and all that - i could actually go on to writing surveys and all that jazz (since i have the education to do it).
but, it's really just an inbetween thing - i'm 90% sure i'm getting a phone call back from the sports store i applied at, and i'd like to get that experience, and get to work as a manager (one day i'd like to have my own store).
so yeah. but i have a job. i think i'm going to have a hard time lasting there (lots of sitting, no eating at the desk and very rigid time frames down to the precious minute) so that could be tough, but i don't think i'll mind doing the surveys. that actually interests me.
w00t for me.
ps. project i'd be working on to start - surveying Brits to find out about their sports/recreational habits. maybe i'll start talking like one

you don't need money to buy stuff.
you just need that magical plastic swipey thing that takes care of all that 'paying for things' nonsense for you!
and you call yourself an amurkan.
(thanks everybody)

no worries - only calling Brits Ranger G.
hey - so here's a question...
you're doing a dummy interview - i have to read this survey over the phone to the lady interviewing me...
one question says "is the gov't doing a good job or a poor job of spending your money"...
who wants to tell the place hiring you that they just fielded a loaded question? (re: tell them how to do their job)
not i....
