1) Communications Cryptologist - US Navy

2) The job is always changing, and therefore challenging. I get to dabble in a little bit of everything from secure phones to encrypted messaging services, and LAN administration.

3) Going into a war zone kinda sucks, and I don't fully agree with some of the out-dated military rules that are still enforced (but only by people with a hair in their "O Ring" lookin’ to bust on you for something).

1. Student (Foreign Language) / Customer Service at a grocery/liquor store

2. Meet so many interesting people! Coworkers are alright, plus I can put in 30 hours in in three days, so I get 4 days off a week. Lots of riding time. :D

3. They won't let me park my bike where I can see it, and tracking down the drunk, beligerant fools who dick with it to beat their "O Ring" is a hassle. :evil: NO TOUCHIE. (It's not a real big problem though. :D )

Thah naveh! I've always wanted to join the navy, so I could be around the F-14s (Aircraft)... I want to fly one more though... An it looks like you like the band cold, rock on.

1.) Home edumecated student
2.) I get to stay home, and sleep late
3.) Being too young to ride a motorcycle, doing school while I sit beside my guitar, and wanting to go greese monkey on my bike.

1. What do you do for an occupation?

Call centre Temp

2. What is the best part of your job?

Turning bad calls around and having a usually happy customer by the end of the call. Basicly either sorting the customers problem out or giving them a good reason why the problem exists.

3. What is the worst part of your job?

Lying to Customers... dont ask - or having to wear a shirt and tie in an office where female co-workers get away with wearing T-shirts and pullovers. (I'm not to fond of any form of sexism)
