I work with a friend and colleague repairing computers for local citizens and businesses. The company is called Alpha Computer Services and we're starting slow, but it's beginning to pick up. Good experience involved, plus I get paid. I love my job.

I've got this small job grading student's C assignments and labs. I've also designed a project and submitted it to the professor. The hours are kind of better than my last job that gave me very little hours, but right when I found another job I started to get an incoming flood of random professors wanting me to write teh codez. However, writing a database in JAVA is incredibly taxing, but It would make for a great summer job.

Going to as soon as I get a little closer to finishing school. Just gotta bide my time till then.
But, being a chef has its advantages:
1)...
2)....
3)......
4) ok, I got nothin'...........

being a chef with no creative freedom sux!

How can you hate being a chef?!?!?! I LOVED IT!!! I hated the pay and the other employees, but I loved my job. I loved making tasty things for people to eat! It makes me happy ^____^ My true hearts desire would be culinery arts or just regular art, but I wouldn't make any money, so I chose my second favorite thing, computers.

Superlame. I made heart-shaped pancakes, I drew stuff in chocolate on peoples deserts, I cut smilie faces into the lids of pot-pies, etc. Theres tons of ways to be creative. You just have to think outside the box.

I hate my job, but it gives me access to sun training courses for java, which is okay. Normally they're like 2k each. They're the only reason I stay.

actually, chefs make very good money - if your willing to put up with the bs. I'm not.
and my boss would shit a lead biscuit if I put a smiley face on anything. lol.

I love the money that my job pays. But ever since the interesting projects got cut I've hated it with a passion and actively looked elsewhere.

I currently like my job a lot. I've been there for about 2 1/2 years and it's been pretty good.

Hopefully it will continue to get better and I like it.

Love my job actually, go to university a few days a week and spend the other days outside doing gardening/laws/general maintenance on nice homes. Its a good diveresion from sitting in front of the computer coding/studying... I really do enjoy it and the pay is rather good

Also it seems to be quite enjoyable because its just me and my boss and we are always in a different place every few hours, makes the day fast and at the end of the day you have accomplished something. Nothing like working in the garden or yard and then turning around having a cold drink and going, ahhh that looks better
