I think they give him 2 weeks off out of every 5 because it takes that long to decontaminate.....

-> Internet Specialist

-> the opportunity to do something new and creative

-> the politics of a large organization

A social research specialist would probably have something to say about the fact that we all have jobs that vary from day to day and require a level of problem solving ability.

They don't do this for everybody, it's just that after three weeks they have had all that they can stand..... :wink:

I work in IT, yea IT if your in IT you know what IT is, If you don't IT is Information Technology, computers and stuff. I am a project manager. In addition to managing projects, I do research and training.

Best part about my job, I'm in K-12 Education. So the hours, and benefits are pretty darn good.

Worst part about my job, we are a big school district so there can be a lot of red tape. Oh and the egos, oh the egos. There are a bunch of people that are in upper level postions that think they are so... well you know.

I make people miserable all day long.


It prepares me for my home life! :laughing:
We're the first ones to starve
We're the first ones to die
The first ones in line for that pie in the sky
But we're always the last
When the gravy's shared out
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about
