what is the new job i should get

no blogger?

Guys, let's vote with our dicks and vote MATCHMAKER

my dick says vote AMTRAK CONDUCTOR

i don't want to be a blogger!

yo u guises ever see people arrested on amtrak

no ;_;

i did see a guy get thrown off once tho

I saw a guy get thrown off NJT, which is good doing.

I said sideline reporter, but really I think you should be in the booth, Ally.

Novelist.

I too voted novelist.

romanting novelist

TOP SCHEF

it's nanny

I voted amtrak conductor.

i too would like to be an amtrak conductor tho i am moving to a practically-amtrak-less city.

i thought eastern seabored subsidized flyover states amtrak

no the flyover states /diesel line amtrak costs them next to nothing to run because they don't own the track. eastern seaboard amtrak-trak is owned and maintained by them which is why it costs so much and shit is always broked

some flyover states just don't have amtrak! they did open a indy-to-louisville route a few years ago in which the train can only go 25 MILES AN HOUR because the track's so bad. don't know if it still runs. other than that, closest amtrak city is cincy.

wait where does hstencil move?

not naptown.

lol, looks like that train was discontinued.

the fucking acela isn't even fast

we should sell amtrack to JR.jp

JR??????

William Gaddis?????

i thought you were moving to the greater western states

ah. good idea, that would be awesome. would be nice to have a real train option.

sideline reporter seems like the easiest one to do drunk or sleeping

id only accept if they just let you punch in anytime you fancy like the goose

god tony siragusa so much to answer for

is he still employed? i loved how last season a little graphic of him would pop up every time he jumped in.

maybe later, rw. i have no idea.

blogger

pro drunk.

Wait, no, i call that one.

you can't corner alcoholism, justen

or at least i'll throw you a hellofa fight

Pro drunk implies team. There will just be a stringent qualification process.

I call captain.

it's alcohol

Nanny. I'll hire you. Oh yes, I'll hire you.

escort is polite name for prostitute, rite?

good Heave Ho good

drunk pro-blogger

actually that's what i kinda want to be

ask the wonkit, it's not all it's cracked up to be

I'm leaning toward sideline reporter, though I only know Ally from her ILX posts (and know nothing about sports).

Do not recommend: Quality Assurance department in housewares company.

if there is anything I have learned from reading pro bloggers output it's that there is no subject on earth that would not become nauseatingly tiresome if you are required to write about it 8 times or more every day. I don't know how ghost rider manages to attend some of the events he does with his subject matter and not get into bloody, spittle-laden fistfights every time.

drunken, bloody, spittle-laden blogger - that could be the angle.

the fighting blogger

flogger

frogger

the flogger blogs about things then beats them up

clobber

yes the clobber that is it

MATCH GAME 07 PANELIST

The frogger vlogs about things then eats them up.

morbius otm

oh man i want in on match game

srsly

we all need a couple more decades to get properly pickled and sleazy and orange

We should get right to work, then.

ghost rider is gunning for the gene rayburn slot, waistcoated suit & all

i do have to get at least a part-time job of some sort soon :/
all the blogging i have done has not paid me in money, which is what i need

how is temping scene in mtl?

I AM STILL UNEMPLOYED HALP

You are all too young to become gay icons (xcept me)

I'm 37 and not gay, but I like opera and shower too much attention on my tiny dog?

thats just gay, not icon, sorry.

Mebbe I can achieve some sort of Shaddoe Stevens type status.

http://www.geocities.com/jyroflux/dvds/CannonballRun.jpg

i have heard temping scene is ok, actually. i totally forgot abt looking into that
xpost

rw - wait when do you start school tho? next year? so there is time to get a 'proper' job?

i am at the point where i just want a short-term part-time job that doesn't make me think all that much and doesn't make me want to kill too many people. all of ally's options prob don't fit that.

Rrroby, life makes me want to kill people, I don't need a job for that. Hence the drinking.

i don't start school for basically exactly one year. so i've got a year off to do whatever. this SOUNDS like a neat deal, but i'm broke and can't get jetting off to thailand (yet). the problem is that i am not qualified to do really anything in particular, but am "overqualified" to do menial shit (as in: i have been turned down for jobs on that basis already! i don't care! gimme money!).

i mean god help me i'm responding to an ad for Greenpeace fundraisers

Oh my aunt did that in Chicago a long time ago, don't do that.

oh you totally have to make a resume that shows you are not overqualified - it is a game. i am working on this one. thankfully not being fully bilingual in this province does a lot to help me out on this one.

^ sarcasm re: bilingualism lol

Rrrobyn, maybe sign up for two or three temp agencies at once and see what happens. Even the most nightmare assignment will be over in days and something different will follow.

Let them know at the outset you don't want "temp-to-perm" though, only brief random engagements.

RW I tried that when I was 21 and lasted less than a week. What a psychological battering THAT gig is!

lol I almost posted something at the beginning of this thread about asking this Q on the noize bored AKA job waht is a job do it involves werk oh noes time to go bak 2 skool & pickle bar

but I love you all anyway

RW, move to NYC and escort Lauren Bacall to cultural functions

why didn't you recommend i do that

all i really want to do is be a carpenter :-/

xp oh okay!

how do i get that job

wait should i be a male escort???? how is the $$$$$

a friend of mine is starting year-long cabinetmaking course in october! govt paid-for!
xpost

xp

I think yr voice has to be deeper than Bacall's, which shuts out most men anyway

RW, SHAKE YR MONEYMAKER

yeah RW make sure you have some cowskin luggage and the right hat before you do that

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QorkFwpOo6E

oh i've got that part covered, with the voice

since you got harry nilsson stuck in my head for the rest of the day everybody else has to suffer too

also i have carpal tunnel or something from searching on the internet for jobs and from posting to the pikkle bar

you won't need yr fingers much, Joe Buck

i mean god help me i'm responding to an ad for Greenpeace fundraisers

^ clipboard assholes

like is it time to hit up trader joe's???

That's not a bad job, actually! One of bike girls worked there and was okay with it until something else came along. She got lots of food, too.

Trader Joe's emps don't look very disgruntled, it's true.

they're usually insanely gregarious to the point of kind of being uncomfortable.

one dude was basically trying to invite himself to my super bowl party when i was there, for example.

yah id work there if i knew i was going to school in a little while

i wish there were bro-ier jobs in the city.

why did i move back? WAHT A DISASTER

For the girls, Evan. Now go get one.

Guise I wish I could share with you the temp we have in here today testing soap dispensers. If a "beatnik" appeared on an episode of The Brady Bunch, this would be him. Except that he looks like Dan Clowes drew him.

Hippypants or Peace Bear?

Closer to the male "satanist" they follow from the diner.

I still think you should do some P.R. type thing since you can make ILx interesting which shows mad skillz @ manipulating brains of jaded hipsters/internet stalkers. sideline reporter is decent but you'd need an ugly sweater and more hairspray.

you no longer need an ugly sweater, big stuffy looking overcoats in outlandish colors are also permitted

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Guys, let's vote with our dicks and vote MATCHMAKER

matchmaker? my dick, like electricity or heroin addicts, takes the path of least resistance and votes ESCORT.

he problem is that i am not qualified to do really anything in particular, but am "overqualified" to do menial shit (as in: i have been turned down for jobs on that basis already! i don't care! gimme money!).

rw, i got turned down for a job where the qualifications read (in part) "gross and/or fine motor skills". I CAN'T EVEN GET A JOB WHERE LACK OF FINE MOTOR SKILLS IS NOT A DEAL BREAKER.

me and andrew were trading horror stories about our unemployment last night, you should have joined us.

^^^^i am having all these troubles
call me back whole foods!!!

fuck, the whole. did you apply at a store or at the regional office deej? i suppose i should mosey on over and see if they have anything for me.

meat counter at whole foods? i might!

http://www.os2ezine.com/v2n6/choice.gif

Go Amtrak. I imagine you'd be able integrate any number of different money making schemes into your day to day. Or you could take a percentage from those you turned a blind eye to.

whole foods gives benefits and starts at 10$ an hr! And u can specialize in, like, wine or cuts of meat or vitamins or something too. i have a friend who works there, i need to get a reference. Also, 20% off all whole foods food.

^^^ i am applying there today!

christ, i should apply there

when will ghost rider move to nyc!!?!

maybe i'll start a poll

please go work at whole foods, i would like to get 20% off wine.

and fancy beer.

and mmmmaybe i might buy food but probably not.

I only go to Whole Foods for that emergenC vitamin shit I'm addicted to. It's still cheaper at WF than anywhere else.

I never go to whole foods because the (notably smaller) crowd at dean and deluca in georgetown is somehow more tolerable. more old money, less aspirational yuppies in their fucking alma mater sweatshirts? Also if I want teh booze I just walk across the street to the connecticut & 20th alco-mart.

every time I go to a whole foods or a starbucks in DC it makes me think I could be a stand-up comic. I would just make narcissism-of-small-differences jokes about white yupster laptop dildos in a lewis black stylee.

i go to dean & deluca sometimes because it's near my work. i can't afford to buy "groceries" there though, it's usually just like, 2 apples and israeli pita. i like fairway the most. also i've heard good things about the pathmark at atlantic center but have yet to go.

whole foods and trader joes are just wayyyy too crowded. i've only managed to buy something at the union square wf once, the other times i've walked in, felt overwhelmed, ran out in a panic.

It panics me too. I endure it for the time necessary to get cheaper vitamin crack.

whole foods makes me horny

plz don't visit me @ work

o fairway how i miss you so

sweet ass fairway in red hook now

fairway is totally cool until you go there during old people hours then you burst a blood vessel just trying to walk around without even a cart

that fairway on the upper west side was officially WAY TOO MUCH AARP

OTHER PPL: SOMETIMES THEY ARE ALSO OUT AND ABOUT, NEWS AT 11

OTHER PPL: THEY ARE TERRIBLE

the upper west side one was actually laid out by crazy people tho

STICK TO HARLEM AND RED HOOK NEWS @ 11

the uws one is amazingly poor in its layout

the red hook one is so so beautiful

the uws one is amazingly poor in its layout

did i ban gabbneb

yah if i had a car id run up in that bitch every week xp

THAT IS THE ONLY REASON I KEEP MY CAR AT THIS POINT

if I had a car I'd wreck up the uws fairway with it

so there would be fewer old people, and they would have to renovate

when towga went back to school i took a 2nd job there and it sucked. the margin's they take are unfuckingbelievable. except for beer, they've found that people WILL NOT overpay for beer and will make an extra trip to save a buck, markup was between 5-9%. produce markups were criminal.

$10/hour is like a shitty job for a college student in a flyover state :/

jw, it's a grocery store, it's not like anyone there is planning on retiring at 40 because they work at whole foods.

Maybe all the NYC whole foods employees are squatters?
