i am the only person in the shipping/receiving department in the parts room for my uncle's company. we specialize in fixing trucks. big trucks. BIG trucks. some people cant understand that and bring in a pickup and ask them to fix it and then get mad when the service manager laughs at them. my OFFICIAL job title is "bitch" - no, i'm not kidding, it's on the paperwork. i get paid decently, but my $433/month car payment takes a chunk of it. and my g/f is sick right now and hasnt been working a whole lot.

I'm a lab tech at a Capri Sun plant. Pays pretty good but living in California is pretty expensive.

Hudson_Neon · Post by **Hudson_Neon** » Mon Nov 05, 2007 4:31 pm

wow, everybody seems to get paid pretty good but me. then again i just started a new job on thursday and when you're a college student you really don't get paid super well when you first start.

SteelBlue · Post by **SteelBlue** » Mon Nov 05, 2007 5:03 pm

I'm a 'office specialist' aka 'paper pusher' for my local college - Oregon Tech. I'm working on special projects/data entry with a little customer service on the side. Its a long-term temporary position (6+ months) and there's a chance I will get bumped up to regular staff status after that. Been working here for a few weeks now and I'm liking it so far. Pay is nice too

Azianmopar05 - I worked at AutoZone for a day or two as a PSM then left cause I hated half the people there. What do you do there?

kplaya186 · Post by **kplaya186** » Mon Nov 05, 2007 7:21 pm

I am just a student right now. I go to Michigan State University, and I am studying Biosystems Engineering with a cognate in Food Engineering. I have applied at many places, but most say that my class schedule is too hard to work around. Next semester I will hopefully be working in the MSU Dairy Plant getting some good experience for the real world though. GO GREEN!

Paul56 · Post by **Paul56** » Mon Nov 05, 2007 7:59 pm

I ended my IT career as a Mission Critical Technical Engineer for Hewlett-Packard.

...then for something completely different I drove long haul transport rigs for a while where my official title was Driver or as many in the industry called us Dwellers...LOL.

...now I have settled down into accounting for a web hosting/software company where I still get to play with computers and offer support.

I hope my next career move is retirement into the so-called "Golden Years".

Bah, I'll never see that- I have a terrible fear of being a Wal-Mart greeter someday.

Yeah I don't make shit either, never really have. I bust my ass hard at my current day job too, by far the hardest job I have ever had, and no benefits, paid holidays or vacation either.

As long as I bring in $600 a month I can survive, I have gotten good at living frugally, I don't need much money.

My last 'job' was a temporay thing best discribed as a 'research pilot'. Great pay, but the program didn't last long. Otherwise, still a student... FTL.

But paying for your own car is more admirable than modding it

Computer salesman at Best Buy. Only good thing is the discount. What BBY pays +5%. Those $35 USB cables for printers? $3.

I get paid crap too, I'm up for review mid month, but after holiday season I'm gonna be working for a local computer consultant firm.
